Adenosine deaminase (ADA)

1 reactions · 1 pathways

Cofactors used

Clinical / pharmacological. ADA deficiency: severe combined immunodeficiency (dATP accumulation inhibits RNR)

What it does, reaction by reaction

1 reactions

Purine Degradation (to Uric Acid) Nucleotide Metabolism · Cytosol

step 3 Irreversible/directional

Adenosine → inosine

Converts Adenosine into Inosine

› Notes

Adenosine deaminase (ADA) catalyzes adenosine + H2O → inosine + NH3. The enzyme requires no external redox cofactor and channels adenosine toward hypoxanthine production.
