Description
|
Adenosine deaminase (ADA) is a purine catabolic enzyme ubiquitous in mammalian tissue. In vitro it catalyzes deamination of both adenosine and 2"-deoxyadenosine to inosine and 2"-deoxyinosine respectively.
Adenosine + H2O → Inosine + NH3.

|
Inhibitors
|
Ag+, Hg2+, Cu2+, sulfhydryl reagents (pCMB and methyl mercuric nitrate) are strongly inhibiting. The even stronger inhibiting effect of TPCK and DFP suggests that histidine or serine or both might play a role in the active site of the enzyme.

|
Preparation Instructions
|
The enzyme preparation may be diluted in water or buffer to a protein concentration of 1mg/ml, producing a clear, colorless solution.
