Description
NMN (β-nicotinamide mononucleotide) is a naturally occurring compound derived from niacin (vitamin B3) that plays a pivotal role in cellular metabolism and energy production. As an intermediate in the biosynthesis of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+), NMN is essential for various critical cellular processes. NAD+ is a fundamental coenzyme present in all living cells, and its production is crucial for metabolic activities, DNA repair, and the regulation of gene expression. By facilitating the generation of NAD+, NMN supports the maintenance of cellular health and functionality.
As a leading innovator in the synthetic biology industry, Alfa Chemistry offers high-quality, eco-friendly NMN. This versatile compound has broad applications in nutrition and health, biomedicine, cosmetic medicine, daily chemicals, and sustainable agriculture.

Applications of NMN in Synthetic Biology
Optimizing NAD+ Levels
Synthetic biology aims to engineer microbial strains or other cells to optimize the production of NAD+ by enhancing NMN synthesis. This is particularly valuable in biofuel production and biotransformations, where high NAD+/NADH ratios can drive metabolic pathways more efficiently.
Aging and Longevity Research
As NAD+ levels naturally decline with age, strategies to increase NMN or NAD+ are being explored to promote cellular health and longevity. Synthetic biologists are working on genetically engineered organisms or cells that can either produce NMN or more efficiently utilize it to maintain higher NAD+ levels over time, potentially mitigating age-related diseases.
Probiotic Development
Engineering probiotics that can produce NMN might have beneficial effects on gut health, metabolic disorders, and even systemic age-related declines.
