Kissing loop interaction in adenine riboswitch: insights from umbrella sampling simulations [PDF]

open access: yesBMC Bioinformatics 2015, 16(Suppl 9):S6, 2015
Riboswitches are cis-acting regulatory RNA elements prevalently located in the leader sequences of bacterial mRNA. An adenine sensing riboswitch cis-regulates adeninosine deaminase gene (add) in Vibrio vulnificus. The structural mechanism regulating its conformational changes upon ligand binding mostly remains to be elucidated.

Astrocyte adenosine deaminase loss increases motor neuron toxicity in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis

open access: yesBrain : a journal of neurology, 2019
Using metabolic screening, Allen et al. identify an adenosine to inosine deamination defect in astrocytes from ALS patients. This defect is the result of reduced expression of adenosine deaminase, leading to increased susceptibility to adenosine-mediated

DNA editing in DNA/RNA hybrids by adenosine deaminases that act on RNA. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Adenosine deaminases that act on RNA (ADARs) carry out adenosine (A) to inosine (I) editing reactions with a known requirement for duplex RNA. Here, we show that ADARs also react with DNA/RNA hybrid duplexes.

L-Arginine Intake Effect on Adenine Nucleotide Metabolism in Rat Parenchymal and Reproductive Tissues

open access: yesThe Scientific World Journal, 2012
L-arginine is conditionally essetcial amino acid, required for normal cell growth, protein synthesis, ammonia detoxification, tissue growth and general performance, proposed in the treatment of men sterility and prevention of male impotence.

Author Correction: Identification of ADAR1 adenosine deaminase dependency in a subset of cancer cells

open access: yesNature Communications, 2018
Systematic exploration of cancer cell vulnerabilities can inform the development of novel cancer therapeutics. Here, through analysis of genome-scale loss-of-function datasets, we identify adenosine deaminase acting on RNA (ADAR or ADAR1) as an essential

New insights into the biological role of mammalian ADARs; the RNA editing proteins [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The ADAR proteins deaminate adenosine to inosine in double-stranded RNA which is one of the most abundant modifications present in mammalian RNA.

A role for adenosine deaminase in Drosophila larval development. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Biology, 2005
Adenosine deaminase (ADA) is an enzyme present in all organisms that catalyzes the irreversible deamination of adenosine and deoxyadenosine to inosine and deoxyinosine.

Dosagem da atividade da adenosina deaminase no líquido pleural para o diagnóstico da tuberculose pleural Pleural fluid adenosine deaminase detection for the diagnosis of pleural tuberculosis

open access: yesJornal Brasileiro de Pneumologia, 2004
INTRODUÇÃO: O diagnóstico da tuberculose pleural permanece um desafio, pois a sensibilidade dos testes tradicionais é baixa. O exame histopatológico da pleura é o método mais preciso, com até 80% de sensibilidade.

The Kinetic Study of Adenosine Deaminase Activity in Renal Failure Patients [PDF]

open access: yesKirkuk Journal of Science, 2011
Serum adenosine deaminase levels was measured in patients with acute renal failure and compare them with the results of healthy individuals. Serum adenosine deaminase levels were found to be significantly higher in patient with acute renal failure than ...
