The enzyme nicotinamide mononucleotide deamidase, an integral component of the proposed four-membered pyridine nucleotide cycle (PNC IV), has been demonstrated in extracts of Salmonella typhimurium LT2. The enzyme has an optimum pH of 8.7 and deamidates nicotinamide mononucleotide, forming nicotinic acid mononucleotide. Sigmoidal kinetic data suggest that this enzyme may be allosteric and therefore an important regulatory component of pyridine nucleotide cycle metabolism. Mutants previously designated pncC in anticipation of their lacking nicotinamide mononucleotide deamidase were examined and found to have normal levels of this enzyme. [14C]nicotinamide mononucleotide uptake studies, however, revealed a defect in the transport of this compound. Accordingly, the genetic designation for this locus was changed to pnuA to reflect its involvement in pyridine nucleotide uptake. Evidence is presented for the existence of two separate nicotinamide mononucleotide transport systems.
