Cytosine deaminase

This enzyme belongs to the family of hydrolases, those acting on carbon-nitrogen bonds other than peptide bonds, specifically in cyclic amidines. The systematic name of this enzyme class is cytosine aminohydrolase. This enzyme is also called isocytosine deaminase. This enzyme participates in pyrimidine metabolism.

Structural studies

As of late 2007, 13 structures have been solved for this class of enzymes, with PDB accession codes 1K6W, 1K70, 1OX7, 1P6O, 1R9X, 1R9Y, 1RA0, 1RA5, 1RAK, 1RB7, 1UAQ, 1YSB, and 1YSD.
