Enzyme Information

3.5.4.37
Double-stranded RNA adenine deaminase.
based on mapping to UniProt P55265
Adenine in double-stranded RNA + H(2)O = hypoxanthine in double-stranded RNA + NH(3).
-!- This eukaryotic enzyme is involved in RNA editing. -!- It destabilizes double-stranded RNA through conversion of adenosine to inosine. -!- Inositol hexakisphosphate is required for activity.
