Isolation of Nucleoside Metabolizing Enzymes from Alaska Pea Seeds (Pisum sativum L. cultivar Alaska) [PDF]
The activities of number of metabolizing enzymes were determined from dry Alaska Pea Seeds (Pisum sativum L. cultivar Alaska). Then tested for presence of three groups of enzymes; nucleosidase, deaminases and phosphorylases. The highest activity of the

Human APOBEC1 cytidine deaminase edits HBV DNA [PDF]
Retroviruses, hepadnaviruses, and some other retroelements are vulnerable to editing by single stranded DNA cytidine deaminases. Of the eleven human genes encoding such enzymes, eight have demonstrable enzymatic activity.

Bacterial cytidine deaminases as versatile activators of fluoropyrimidine nucleoside prodrugs
A platform for modification of 5-fluoropyrimidine nucleosides as potential prodrugs has been developed utilizing bacterial-derived cytidine deaminases (CDAs) for activation. It has been demonstrated that CDA_EH, CDA_F14, and CDA_Lsp effectively convert 5-fluoropyrimidine analogs into 5-fluoro-(2′-deoxy)uridine exhibiting cytotoxic effects.
