| Example Structure | ![]() |
| Synonyms | activation-induced cytidine deaminase, AICDA, canine hepatic cyd deaminase, CDA, CDABcald, CDABpsy, CDABsub, CDase, CDD, CR deaminase, cyd deaminase, Cytidine aminohydrolase, cytidine deaminase, cytidine/2′-deoxycytidine aminohydrolase, cytosine nucleoside deaminase, DCD, dCDA, deoxycytidine deaminase, mammalian deminase, T-CDA, yeast cytidine deaminase |
| EC Number | 3.5.4.5 |
| CAS Registry Number | 9025/6/3 |
| Comments | Contains zinc. Catalyses the deamination of cytidine and 2′-deoxycytidine with similar efficiencies. The enzyme, which is widely distributed among organisms, is involved in salvage of both exogenous and endogenous cytidine and 2′-deoxycytidine for UMP synthesis. |
| Cofactor | Zn2+ |
| History | |
| Reactions | (1) Cytidine + H(2)O = uridine + NH(3). (2) 2′-deoxycytidine + H(2)O = 2′-deoxyuridine + NH(3). |
