A new technique for the analysis of metabolic pathways of cytidine analogues and cytidine deaminase activities in cells [PDF]
Deoxycytidine analogues (dCas) are widely used for the treatment of malignant diseases. They are commonly inactivated by cytidine deaminase (CDD), or by deoxycytidine monophosphate deaminase (dCMP deaminase).

Cytidine deaminase-dependent mitochondrial biogenesis as a potential vulnerability in pancreatic cancer cells [PDF]
Cytidine deaminase (CDA) converts cytidine and deoxycytidine into uridine and deoxyuridine as part of the pyrimidine salvage pathway. Elevated levels of CDA are found in pancreatic tumors and associated with chemoresistance. Recent evidence suggests that

APOBEC3A is a prominent cytidine deaminase in breast cancer.
APOBEC cytidine deaminases are the second-most prominent source of mutagenesis in sequenced tumors. Previous studies have proposed that APOBEC3B (A3B) is the major source of mutagenesis in breast cancer (BRCA).

Partial purification of cytidine deaminase from protoscoleces of Echinococcus granulosus [PDF]
Cytidine deaminase (EC 3.5.4.5) has been partially purified from protoscoleces of Echinococcus granulosus by gel filteration chromatography using Sephadex G200 .The molecular weight of the enzyme determined by gel filteration was about 82000 dalton with ...

A genome-wide identification and analysis of the DYW-deaminase genes in the pentatricopeptide repeat gene family in cotton (Gossypium spp.). [PDF]
The RNA editing occurring in plant organellar genomes mainly involves the change of cytidine to uridine. This process involves a deamination reaction, with cytidine deaminase as the catalyst.

APOBEC’s are a family of cytidine deaminases that induce mutations in viruses to inhibit their replication and maintain cell integrity. Here, Manjunath et al show that APOBEC3B also inhibits viral replication by stimulating the innate immune sensor ...
