Adenosine deaminase

Description:

Adenosine deaminase (ADA) is an enzyme that plays a crucial role in purine metabolism, specifically in the deamination of adenosine to inosine. This enzyme is vital for maintaining the balance of nucleotides in cells and is particularly important in the immune system, as it regulates the levels of adenosine, which can influence immune responses. ADA is a homodimeric protein, meaning it consists of two identical subunits, and it is found in various tissues, with high concentrations in lymphocytes. The enzyme operates optimally at physiological pH and temperature, and its activity can be influenced by various factors, including the presence of inhibitors or activators. Deficiencies in adenosine deaminase can lead to severe combined immunodeficiency (SCID), highlighting its importance in human health. The CAS number 9026-93-1 identifies this specific enzyme in chemical databases, facilitating research and clinical applications. Overall, ADA is a key enzyme in cellular metabolism and immune function, with significant implications for health and disease.

Adenosine deaminase

CAS: 9026-93-1

Adenosine deaminase is an enzyme that catalyzes the irreversible deamination of 2'-deoxyadenosine and adenosine to 2'-deoxyinosine and inosine, respectively.

Purity: 98%

Color and Shape: Solid

Ref: TM-T19179

Adenosine deaminase, type X, buffered aqueous glycerol solution, >130units/mg

CAS: 9026-93-1

Adenosine deaminase catalyzes deamination of adenosine, converting it to inosine. It happens by the substituting of the amino group by a keto group. One Unit of the enzyme converts one micromole of adenosine to inosine per minute at 25°C, pH 7.4. Adenosine deaminase is also known by names of adenosine aminohydrolase, and ADA, EC 3.5.4.4.
