    It is most likely a single enzyme (NAD+ nucleosidase) present in semen from most bulls which hydrolyses the ribosyl pyridinium bond in both NAD and NADP. This conclusion is based on the following results: (i) each of 12 semen samples containing nucleosidase activity hydrolysed NAD at the same rate as NADP (r = 0.99); (ii) other untreated semen samples from different bulls which did not hydrolyse NAD were also inactive against NADP; (iii) enzyme denaturation produced by preliminary heating of semen filtrates for 15 min at varied temperatures or by heating at 55 degrees C for varied time intervals caused similar reductions in the rates of NAD and NADP hydrolysis; and (iv) nicotinamide inhibited enzyme activity to the same degree using either NAD or NADP as the substrate.
