| deoxycytidine kinase | <enzyme> An enzyme that catalyses reversibly the phosphorylation of deoxycytidine with the formation of a nucleoside diphosphate and deoxycytidine monophosphate. Cytosine arabinoside can also act as an acceptor. All natural nucleoside triphosphates, except deoxycytidine triphosphate, can act as donors. The enzyme is induced by some viruses, particularly the herpes simplex virus (herpes virus hominis). Chemical name: NTP:deoxycytidine 5'-phosphotransferase Registry number: EC 2.7.1.74 (12 Dec 1998) |

| deoxycytidine monophosphate | <chemical> Deoxycytidine (dihydrogen phosphate). A deoxycytosine nucleotide containing one phosphate group esterified to the deoxyribose moiety in the 2'-,3'- or 5- positions. Chemical name: 5'-Cytidylic acid, 2'-deoxy- (12 Dec 1998) |
| deoxycytidylate hydroxymethyltransferase | <enzyme> Minor descriptor (75-85); on-line and index medicus search transferases (75-85); catalyses the synthesis of 5-hydroxymethyldeoxycytidylate from deoxycytidylate plus 5,10-methylenetetrahydrofolate; occurs in some bacteriophage Registry number: EC 2.1.2.8 Synonym: 5,10-methylenetetrahydrofolate-deoxycytidylate 5-hydroxymethyltransferase, dcmp hydroxymethylase, dcmp hydroxymethyltransferase (26 Jun 1999) |
| deoxycytidylate methylase | <enzyme> From lactobacillus casei; mutation of asparagine 229 to aspartate in thymidylate synthetase converts the mutant to an excellent catalyst for methylation of dcmp Registry number: EC 2.1.1.- Synonym: dcmp methylase (26 Jun 1999) |
