β-Nicotinamide Mononucleotide (NMN) is synthesized through the coupling of nicotinamide and ribose 5-phosphate, linking the nicotinamide nitrogen directly to the ribose's (β) carbon position. The NMN zwitterion exists as a specific ionic form of nicotinamide mononucleotide. It operates as an active metabolite in both mice and Escherichia coli. Furthermore, it serves as the conjugate acid of NMN(-) while simultaneously functioning as the conjugate base of NMN(+).
