Abstract
The covalent modification of proteins has been demonstrated to be an important and general in vivo mechanism for metabolic regulation (1). More recently it has been shown that nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD) can participate in such reactions as a donor of the adenosine diphosphate ribose (ADP-ribose) moiety (2, 3). Although the biological function of these reactions is still unknown, evidence has begun to accumulate suggesting that this class of modification constitutes an important regulatory mechanism.
