| deaminase | <enzyme> An enzyme which removes amino groups from compounds, producing ammonia in the process. (09 Oct 1997) |
|---|---|
| dsRNA adenosine deaminase | <enzyme> Catalyses the hydrolytic deamination of adenosine to form inosines; activity simulates double-stranded RNA unwinding; double-stranded RNA is preferred substrate Registry number: EC 3.5.4.- Synonym: double-stranded RNA-specific adenosine deaminase, dsrna-specific adenosine deaminase, red1 (enzyme), red2 (enzyme), adarb2 (26 Jun 1999) |
| threonine deaminase | <enzyme> A pyridoxal-phosphate protein that catalyses the deamination of threonine to 2-ketobutyrate and ammonia. The role of this enzyme can be biosynthetic or biodegradative. In the former role it supplies 2-ketobutyrate required for isoleucine biosynthesis, while in the latter it is only involved in the breakdown of threonine to supply energy. Chemical name: L-Threonine hydro-lyase (deaminating) Registry number: EC 4.2.1.16 (12 Dec 1998) |
| 2,5-diamino-6-ribitylamino-4(3H)-pyrimidinone 5'-phosphate deaminase | <enzyme> Forms 5-amino-6-ribitylamino-2,4-(1h,3h)-pyrimidinedione 5'-phosphate, intermediate in biosynthesis of riboflavin Registry number: EC 3.5.4.- Synonym: drap 5'-p deaminase (26 Jun 1999) |
| 3-aminobutyryl-CoA deaminase | <enzyme> Forms crotonyl CoA Registry number: EC 4.3.1.- Synonym: 3-aminobutyryl-coenzyme a deaminase (26 Jun 1999) |
| folic acid deaminase | <enzyme> Chemotaxis regulating enzyme; splits folic acid into 6-hydroxymethylpterin and p-aminobenzoylglutamic acid Registry number: EC 3.5.4.- Synonym: folic acid inactivating enzyme, folic acid c9-n10 cleaving enzyme (26 Jun 1999) |
