Allantoate deiminase
Definition:
EC Tree > 3 Hydrolases > 3.5 Acting on carbon-nitrogen bonds, other than peptide bonds > 3.5.3 In linear amidines > 3.5.3.9 allantoate deiminase
Cytosine deaminase is a zinc-dependent deaminase found in eukaryotes and bacteria that also acts on 5-methylcytosine. It hydrolyzes cytosine into uracil and ammonia. In microbes it converts cytosine to uracil; the yeast enzyme is used in prodrug therapy. It features a zinc deaminase fold.
