Enzyme Information
| 2.4.2.19 | 
							 Nicotinate-nucleotide diphosphorylase (carboxylating). 
							based on mapping to UniProt P9WJJ7 		
							Beta-nicotinate D-ribonucleotide + diphosphate + CO(2) = pyridine-2,3- dicarboxylate + 5-phospho-alpha-D-ribose 1-diphosphate. 
							-!- The reaction is catalyzed in the opposite direction. -!- Since quinolinate is synthesized from L-tryptophan in eukaryotes, but from L-aspartate in some prokaryotes, this is the first NAD(+) biosynthesis enzyme shared by both eukaryotes and prokaryotes.
