Disease relevance of AAH1

 

High impact information on AAH1

  • An adenosine deaminase that generates inosine at the wobble position of tRNAs [3].
  • The bacterial tRNA adenosine deaminase (TadA) generates inosine by deaminating the adenosine residue at the wobble position of tRNA(Arg-2) [4].
  • We have isolated three deletion mutants, srb10, srb11 and saf1 (ybr280c) affecting AAH1 expression during post-diauxic growth and in early stationary phase [5].
  • The adenine deaminase encoding gene AAH1 is among the most precociously and tightly downregulated gene upon entry into quiescence [5].
  • We show that AAH1 downregulation is not specifically due to glucose exhaustion but is a more general response to nutrient limitation [5].
 

Biological context of AAH1

 

Anatomical context of AAH1

  • Among the ribofuranosyl derivatives, 1-deazaadenosine is the best inhibitor, its Ki ranging between 3.5 x 10(-7) and 4 x 10(-5) M for ADA from erythrocytes and Takadiastase respectively [1].
