3.5.4.31 |
Accepted name: |
S-methyl-5′-thioadenosine deaminase |
Reaction: |
S-methyl-5′-thioadenosine + H2O = S-methyl-5′-thioinosine + NH3 |
Other name(s): |
MTA deaminase; 5-methylthioadenosine deaminase |
Systematic name: |
S-methyl-5′-thioadenosine amidohydrolase |
Comments: |
The enzyme from Thermotoga maritima also functions as S-adenosylhomocysteine deaminase (EC 3.5.4.28) and has some activity against adenosine. Adenosine 5′-phosphate and S-adenosyl-L-methionine (SAM) are not substrates. |
