In enzymology, a NAD synthase (glutamine-hydrolysing) (EC 6.3.5.1) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction

ATP + deamido-NAD + L-glutamine + H2O {\displaystyle \rightleftharpoons } AMP + diphosphate + NAD + L-glutamate. In eukaryotes, this enzyme contains a glutaminase domain related to nitrilase.

The substrates of this enzyme are ATP, deamido-NAD+, L-glutamine, and H2O, whereas its 4 products are AMP, diphosphate, NAD, and glutamate

This enzyme participates in glutamate metabolism and nicotinate and nicotinamide metabolism.

Nomenclature

This enzyme belongs to the family of ligases, specifically those forming carbon-nitrogen bonds carbon-nitrogen ligases with glutamine as amido-N-donor. The systematic name of this enzyme class is deamido-NAD+:L-glutamine amido-ligase (AMP-forming).
