Application

Adenosine deaminase (ADA) is a key enzyme in purine metabolism and is essential for normal immune function . It is important in the study of immune system diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis . Product 93985 is from human, is recombinant and is expressed in E. coli.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Adenosine deaminase irreversibly deaminates adenosine to inosine. In addition to immune system regulation, ADA may be involved in epithelial cell differentiation, neurotransmission and gestation maintenance .

Unit Definition

One unit will deaminate 1.0 μmole of adenosine to inosine per min at pH 7.5 at 25°C.

Storage Class Code

10 - Combustible liquids

Adenosine deaminase activity was determined in paired samples of serum and synovial fluid taken from patients with rheumatoid arthritis (n = 12), reactive arthritis (n = 13), and osteoarthritis (n = 7), and the value of this investigation in the

The crystal structure of a murine adenosine deaminase complexed with 6-hydroxyl-1,6-dihydropurine ribonucleoside, a nearly ideal transition-state analog, has been determined and refined at 2.4 angstrom resolution. The structure is folded as an eight-stranded parallel alpha/beta barrel with a deep pocket

Mechanisms linking immune sensing of DNA danger signals in the extracellular environment to innate pathways in the cytosol are poorly understood. Here, we identify a previously unidentified immune-metabolic axis by which cells respond to purine nucleosides and trigger a type

RNA editing by adenosine deaminases that act on RNA (ADARs) diversifies the transcriptome by changing adenosines to inosines. In mammals, editing levels vary in different tissues, during development, and also in pathogenic conditions. From a screen for repressors of editing

Adenosine deaminase is an enzyme of the purine metabolism whose function is to convert adenosine to inosine and deoxyadenosine to deoxyinosine. The ecto-ADA1 binding to the cell surface through CD26 contributes to the regulation of cytokines and stimulates the proliferation
