Adenosine deaminase (ADA) is a ubiquitously expressed enzyme, found in the cytosol where it catalyzes the irreversibly deamination of adenosine (deoxyadenosine) into inosine (deoxyinosine), in the purine pathway. ADA expression and activity is vital for the metabolism of purines, regulating the concentration of adenosine through the deamination process [1,2]. Absent or deficient ADA activity leads to the accumulation of the enzyme substrates, such as deoxyadenosine, which is a toxic metabolite related to the inhibition of DNA synthesis [3].
