Abstract
Ethanol is one of the most widely consumed drugs in the world, and the effects of ethanol during early development include morphological and cognitive problems. The regulation of adenosine levels is essential for the proper function of major neurotransmitter systems in the brain, particularly glutamate and dopamine; thus, the investigation of the relation of adenosine and memory after early ethanol exposure becomes relevant. Embryos of zebrafish were exposed to 1% ethanol during two distinct developmental stages: gastrula/segmentation or pharyngula. The evaluation of memory, morphology, and locomotor parameters was performed when fish were 3 months old. The effect of ecto-5'-nucleotidase and adenosine deaminase inhibition on the consequences of ethanol exposure with regard to memory formation was observed. Morphological evaluation showed decreases in body length and the relative telencephalic and cerebellar areas in ethanol exposed animals. The locomotor parameters evaluated were not affected by ethanol. In the inhibitory avoidance paradigm, ethanol exposure during the gastrula/segmentation and pharyngula stages decreased zebrafish memory retention. When ethanol was given in the pharyngula stage, the inhibition of ecto-5'-nucleotidase in the acquisition phase of memory tests was able to revert the effects of ethanol on the memory of adults. These findings suggest that the increased adenosine levels caused by ethanol could alter the neuromodulation of important components of memory formation, such as neurotransmitters. The adjustment of adenosine levels through ecto-5'-nucleotidase inhibition appears to be effective at restoring normal adenosine levels and the acquisition of memory in animals exposed to ethanol during the pharyngula stage.

Abstract
![]()
Described
here are mechanistic details of the chemical reactivities
of two modified/saturated pyrimidine residues that represent naturally
occurring forms of DNA damage: 5-thyminyl-5,6-dihydrothymine, commonly
referred to as the “spore photoproduct” (SP), and 5,6-dihydro-2′-deoxyuridine
(dHdU), formed via ionizing radiation damage to cytosine under anoxic
conditions and also serving as a general model of saturated pyrimidine
residues. It is shown that due to the loss of the pyrimidine C5–C6
double bond and consequent loss of ring aromaticity, the C4 position
of both these saturated pyrimidines is prone to the formation of a
hemiaminal intermediate via water addition. Water addition is facilitated
by basic conditions; however, it also occurs at physiological pH at
a slower rate. The hemiaminal species so-formed subsequently converts
to a ring-opened hydrolysis product through cleavage of the pyrimidine
N3–C4 bond. Further decomposition of this ring-opened product
above physiological pH leads to DNA strand break formation. Taken
together, these results suggest that once the aromaticity of a pyrimidine
residue is lost, the C4 position becomes a “hot spot”
for the formation of a tetrahedral intermediate, the decay of which
triggers a cascade of elimination reactions that can under certain
conditions convert a simple nucleobase modification into a DNA strand
break.

Abstract
Nucleos(t)ide reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NRTIs) form the backbone of most anti-HIV therapies. We have shown that 4'-ethynyl-2-fluoro-2'-deoxyadenosine (EFdA) is a highly effective NRTI; however, the reasons for the potent antiviral activity of EFdA are not well understood. Here, we use a combination of structural, computational, and biochemical approaches to examine how substitutions in the sugar or adenine rings affect the incorporation of dA-based NRTIs like EFdA into DNA by HIV RT and their susceptibility to deamination by adenosine deaminase (ADA). Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy studies of 4'-substituted NRTIs show that ethynyl or cyano groups stabilize the sugar ring in the C-2'-exo/C-3'-endo (north) conformation. Steady-state kinetic analysis of the incorporation of 4'-substituted NRTIs by RT reveals a correlation between the north conformation of the NRTI sugar ring and efficiency of incorporation into the nascent DNA strand. Structural analysis and the kinetics of deamination by ADA demonstrate that 4'-ethynyl and cyano substitutions decrease the susceptibility of adenosine-based compounds to ADA through steric interactions at the active site. However, the major determinant for decreased susceptibility to ADA is the 2-halo substitution, which alters the pKa of N1 on the adenine base. These results provide insight into how NRTI structural attributes affect their antiviral activities through their interactions with the RT and ADA active sites.

Abstract
Astrocytes are acutely sensitive to 1,3-dinitrobenzene (1,3-DNB) while adjacent neurons are relatively unaffected, consistent with other chemically-induced energy deprivation syndromes. Previous studies have investigated the role of astrocytes in protecting neurons from hypoxia and chemical injury via adenosine release. Adenosine is considered neuroprotective, but it is rapidly removed by extracellular deaminases such as adenosine deaminase (ADA). The present study tested the hypothesis that ADA is inhibited by 1,3-DNB as a substrate mimic, thereby preventing adenosine catabolism. ADA was inhibited by 1,3-DNB with an IC(50) of 284 μM, Hill slope, n = 4.8 ± 0.4. Native gel electrophoresis showed that 1,3-DNB did not denature ADA. Furthermore, adding Triton X-100 (0.01-0.05%, wt/vol), Nonidet P-40 (0.0015-0.0036%, wt/vol), or bovine serum albumin (0.05 mg/ml or changing [ADA] (0.2 and 2 nM) did not substantially alter the 1,3-DNB IC(50) value. Likewise, dynamic light scattering showed no particle formation over a (1,3-DNB) range of 149-1043 μM. Kinetics revealed mixed inhibition with 1,3-DNB binding to ADA (K(I) = 520 ± 100 μM, n = 1 ± 0.6) and the ADA-adenosine complex (K(IS) = 262 ± 7 μM, n = 6 ± 0.6, indicating positive cooperativity). In accord with the kinetics, docking predicted binding of 1,3-DNB to the active site and three peripheral sites. In addition, exposure of DI TNC-1 astrocytes to 10-500 μM 1,3-DNB produced concentration-dependent increases in extracellular adenosine at 24 h. Overall, the results demonstrate that 1,3-DNB is a mixed inhibitor of ADA and may thus lead to increases in extracellular adenosine. The finding may provide insights to guide future work on chemically-induced energy deprivation.

Abstract
The kinetic and thermodynamic effects of aspirin and diclofenac on the activity of adenosine deaminase (ADA) were studied in 50 mM phosphate buffer pH = 7.5 at 27 and 37 degrees C, using UV-Vis spectrophotometry and isothermal titration calorimetry (ITC). Aspirin exhibits competitive inhibition at 27 and 37 degrees C and the inhibition constants are 42.8 and 96.8 microM respectively, using spectrophotometry. Diclofenac shows competitive behavior at 27 degrees C and uncompetitive at 37 degrees C with inhibition constants of 56.4 and 30.0 microM, at respectively. The binding constant and enthalpy of binding, at 27 degrees C are 45 microM, - 64.5 kJ/mol and 61 microM, - 34.5 kJ/mol for aspirin and diclofenac. Thermodynamic data revealed that the binding process for these ADA inhibitors is enthalpy driven. QSAR studies by principal component analysis implemented in SPSS show that the large, polar, planar, and aromatic nucleoside and small, aromatic and polar non-nucleoside molecules have lower inhibition constants.

Abstract
Adenosine deaminase (ADA) is an enzyme in the purine salvage pathway that catalyzes the deamination of adenosine and deoxyadenosine to inosine and deoxyinosine, respectively. This deamination is an important factor in limiting the usefulness of adenosine analogues in chemotherapy. However, the biocatalysis by ADA is also a useful transformation in enzymatic synthesis. In this review, examples from both the principal investigator's laboratory and from the literature, which depict the synthetic usefulness of this enzyme in deamination, dehalogenation, demethoxylation reactions and in diastereoisomeric resolution, are presented. It is not the intent of this review to comprehensively list all of the biotransformations induced by adenosine deaminase, but rather to present representative examples to highlight the powerful synthetic utility of this enzyme.

Abstract
As part of a program to explore structure-activity relationships for the extremely tight binding inhibition characteristics of coformycins to adenosine deaminase, a series of analogues (1a-1h) containing the imidazo[4,5-e][1,2,4]triazepine ring system has been synthesized and screened in vitro against a mammalian adenosine deaminase for inhibitory activity. While compounds 1a and 1b were synthesized in five steps starting from 4-nitroimidazole, others were derived from 1a through simple exchange reactions with the appropriate alcohols. The observed kinetics profiles and K(i) values suggest that the target compounds are competitive inhibitors that bind 6-9 orders of magnitude less tightly to the enzyme. Compounds 1c and 1d were the most active in the series with K(i)'s ranging from 12 to 15 microM.

Abstract
In an effort to biochemical mode of guanase inhibition as well as the structure-activity relationships of azepinomycin, five analogues (I-V) of azepinomycin were synthesized and screened against guanase from rabbit liver. Our results suggest that while the 6-hydroxy group of azepinomycin is crucial for activity, its putative transition state mode of inhibition of guanase is questionable. The additional H-bonding sites at position 5, and hydrophobic groups in and around position 3 of azepinomycin appear to be tolerated, and may in fact enhance the potency of inhibition.

Abstract
Using the hydrated adenosine intermediate (6R)-6-amino-1, 6-dihydro-6-hydroxy-9-(beta-D-ribofuranosyl)purine (2) produced by adenosine deaminase (ADA, EC 3.5.4.4) as a starting point, the active site probe and inhibitor platform 5-(formylamino)imidazole riboside (FAIRs, 4) was designed by removal of the-C6(OH)(NH2)-molecular fragment of 2 generated by the early events of the enzyme-catalyzed hydrolysis. FAIRs was synthesized directly from the sodium salt of 5-amino-1-(beta-D-ribofuranosyl)imidazole-4-carboxylic acid (CAIR) along a reaction sequence involving a tandem N-formylation/decarboxylation that may have a mechanistic connection to the Escherichia coli purE-catalyzed constitutional isomerization of N5-CAIR to CAIR. The physical and spectral properties of FAIRs were elucidated, its X-ray crystal and NMR solution structures were determined, and its interaction with ADA was investigated. Crystalline FAIRs exists solely as the Z-formamide rotamer and exhibits many of the same intramolecular hydrogen bonding events known to contribute to the association of Ado to ADA. In water and various organic solvents, however, FAIRs exists as NMR-distinct, slowly interconverting Z and E rotamers. This truncated enzymatic tetrahedral intermediate analog was determined to be a competitive inhibitor of ADA with an apparent Ki binding constant of 40 microM, a value quite close to that (33 microM) of the natural substrate's K(m). The actual species selected for binding by ADA, though, is likely the minor hydroxyimino prototropic form of Z-FAIRs possessing a far lower true Ki value. As the structural features of FAIRs appear well-suited to support its use as a template for constructing active site probes of both ADA and AIR carboxylases, a variety of carbohydrate-protected versions of FAIRs suitable for facile aglycon elaborations were synthesized. The N3-alkylation, N3-borane complexation, and C4-iodination of some of these were investigated in order to assess physicochemical properties that may assist in the elucidation of mechanisms for the AIR carboxylases. The survey of these properties taken together with a reasonable mechanism for the model CAIRs-->FAIRs synthetic transformation is interpreted to support a mechanism for the purE-catalyzed N5-CAIR-->CAIR biosynthetic one that involves a carboxylative sp3-rehybridization of the imidazole C4 atom rather than one possessing a dipole-stabilized C4 sp2 carbanionic intermediate.

The compound 3-beta-D-Ribofuranosyl-5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-4H-imidazo[4,5-d][1,3]diaze pin-5-one-8-ol (1), its 3-benzyl analogue (6), and the aglycon (7) served as probes. The first two were both found to be competitive inhibitors of ADA with Ki's in the range of 10(-5) M, while the last one was inactive.

Abstract
For murine adenosine deaminase, we have determined that a single zinc or cobalt cofactor bound in a high affinity site is required for catalytic function while metal ions bound at an additional site(s) inhibit the enzyme. A catalytically inactive apoenzyme of murine adenosine deaminase was produced by dialysis in the presence of specific zinc chelators in an acidic buffer. This represents the first production of the apoenzyme and demonstrates a rigorous method for removing the occult cofactor. Restoration to the holoenzyme is achieved with stoichiometric amounts of either Zn2+ or Co2+ yielding at least 95% of initial activity. Far UV CD and fluorescence spectra are the same for both the apo- and holoenzyme, providing evidence that removal of the cofactor does not alter secondary or tertiary structure. The substrate binding site remains functional as determined by similar quenching measured by tryptophan fluorescence of apo- or holoenzyme upon mixing with the transition state analog, deoxycoformycin. Excess levels of adenosine or N6- methyladenosine incubated with the apoenzyme prior to the addition of metal prevent restoration, suggesting that the cofactor adds through the substrate binding cleft. The cations Ca2+, Cd2+, Cr2+, Cu+, Cu2+, Mn2+, Fe2+, Fe3+, Pb2+, or Mg2+ did not restore adenosine deaminase activity to the apoenzyme. Mn2+, Cu2+, and Zn2+ were found to be competitive inhibitors of the holoenzyme with respect to substrate and Cd2+ and Co2+ were noncompetitive inhibitors. Weak inhibition (Ki > or = 1000 microM) was noted for Ca2+, Fe2+, and Fe3+.

Abstract
An enzyme can enhance the rate of a reaction only to the extent that it binds the altered substrate in the transition state (S not equal to) more tightly than it binds the substrate in the ground state. Inhibitors that resemble S not equal to can be used to stop an enzyme from working, probe its mechanism of action and obtain exact structural information about intermediates in catalysis. In S not equal to analog inhibitors of adenosine and cytidine deaminases, a single hydroxyl group appears to make extremely large contributions to binding affinity. The magnitude of this contribution becomes even more striking when differences in free energy of solvation by water are taken into account. Other results, obtained by deleting individual binding determinants, indicate the operation of remarkable levels of cooperativity and suggest that if every group is in exactly the right position and is part of an inflexible structure, then a single substituent or H-bond can produce very large increases in binding affinity. Some implications for inhibitor design are considered.

Abstract
Adenosine deaminase from Aspergillus oryzae resembles mammalian adenosine deaminases in its ability to catalyze the hydrolytic removal of many substituents from C-6, and in the chirality at C-6 of the active isomer of the transition-state-analogue inhibitor 6-hydroxymethyl-1,6-dihydropurine ribonucleoside. The 5'-OH group of adenosine has been found to contribute a factor of 5.10(4) to transition-state stabilization by calf intestinal adenosine deaminase, and crystallographic observations suggest that a zinc-histidine 'bridge' is formed between the 6-OH and the 5'-OH groups of the substrate in the transition state for its deamination. The present paper describes experiments indicating that this bridge is not present during the action of adenosine deaminase from Aspergillus oryzae. We find (1), that the fungal enzyme catalyzes deamination of adenosine and 5'-deoxyadenosine with kcat/Km values that are almost identical; (2), that the Ki value of the transition-state-analogue inhibitor 2'-deoxycoformycin is much higher for the fungal enzyme (2.7.10(-9) M) than for the mammalian enzyme (2.10(-12) M) and (3), that this difference in binding affinities arises mainly from a difference in rates of enzyme-inhibitor association. Thus, the onset of inhibition was markedly slower for the fungal enzyme (kon = 1.3.10(4) M-1 s-1) than for the calf intestinal enzyme (kon = 2.6.10(6) M-1 s-1). Effects of chelating agents and divalent cations suggest that the fungal enzyme, like other deaminases for adenosine and cytidine, contains essential zinc.

Abstract
The enantiomers of erythro-9-(2-hydroxy-3-nonyl)adenine [(+)- and (-)-EHNA) bound to adenosine deaminase (ADA) at pH 7 with concomitant changes in the optical properties of the enzyme. The association rate constant for (+)-EHNA was 2.9 x 10(6) M-1 s-1 and that for (-)-EHNA was 6.4 x 10(6) M-1 s-1. The dissociation of (-)-EHNA.ADA or (+)-EHNA.ADA in the presence of excess coformycin was monitored by the quenching of enzyme fluorescence as coformycin.ADA was formed. The dissociation rate constants of (+)- and (-)-EHNA.ADA were 0.0054 s-1 and 2.7 s-1, respectively. A similar value for the dissociation rate constant (0.005 s-1) for (+)-EHNA.ADA was calculated from the time course for the appearance of catalytic activity after dilution of (+)-EHNA.ADA into 100 microM adenosine. The Ki values of ADA for (+)- and (-)-EHNA were similar to the dissociation constants calculated from the ratio of the respective dissociation and association rate constants. The biphasic time-dependent inhibition of the catalytic activity of ADA by (+/- )-EHNA [Frieden, C., Kurz, L. C., & Gilbert, H. R. (1980) Biochemistry 19, 5303-5309] was confirmed. However, the catalytic activity of ADA was inhibited monophasically by (+)-EHNA. Thus, the biphasic nature of the time course for inhibition of ADA by (+/- )-EHNA was the result of the presence of both enantiomers of the inhibitor in this assay. These kinetic data were interpreted in terms of single-step mechanisms for binding of (+)- and (-)-EHNA.

Abstract
Several adenosine analogs, such as coformycin, 2'-deoxycoformycin and erythro-9-(3-nonyl-p-aminobenzyl)adenine (EHNA), which are strong inhibitors of mammalian adenosine deaminase, are much weaker inhibitors of the Saccharomyces cerevisiae enzyme. The specificity of the yeast enzyme is more restricted than that of mammalian adenosine deaminase, particularly towards the ribose moiety and around position 6 and 1 of the substrate. The sulphydryl group appears to be more masked in the yeast than in the mammalian enzyme. The kinetic effects of pH with adenosine substrate and with the inhibitor purine riboside are reported. The findings on specificity and pH kinetic effects can be interpreted in a model involving proton transfer from the -SH group of the enzyme to the N-1 atom of the substrate.

Abstract
Recently the biological machinery of the immune system has been exploited with the aid of mechanistic chemistry to produce catalytic antibodies. Because antibodies can be generated that selectively bind almost any molecule of interest, this new technology offers the potential to tailor-make highly selective catalysts for applications in biology, chemistry and medicine. In addition, catalytic antibodies provide fundamental insight into important aspects of biological catalysis, including the importance of transition-state stabilization, proximity effects, general acid and base catalysts, electrophilic and nucleophilic catalysis, and strain.

Abstract
The goal of the research reported here is to identify evolutionarily conserved amino acid residues associated with enzymatic deamination of adenosine. To do this, we isolated molecular clones of the Escherichia coli adenosine deaminase gene by functional complementation of adenosine deaminase deficient bacteria and deduced the amino acid sequence of the enzyme from the nucleotide sequence of the gene. Nucleotide sequence analysis revealed the presence of a 996-nucleotide open reading frame encoding a protein of 332 amino acids having a molecular weight of 36,345. The deduced amino acid sequence of the E. coli enzyme has approximately 33% identity with those of the mammalian adenosine deaminases. With conservative amino acid substitutions the overall sequence homology approaches 50%, suggesting that the structures and functions of the mammalian and bacterial enzymes are similar. Additional amino acid sequence analysis revealed specific residues that are conserved among all three adenosine deaminases and four AMP deaminases for which sequence information is currently available. In view of previously published enzymological data and the conserved amino acid residues identified in this study, we propose a model to account for the enzyme-catalyzed hydrolytic deamination of adenosine. Potential catalytic roles are assigned to the conserved His 214, Cys 262, Asp 295, and Asp 296 residues of mammalian adenosine deaminases and the corresponding conserved amino acid residues in bacterial adenosine deaminase and the eukaryotic AMP deaminases.

Abstract
1. The scallop enzyme was separated by DE52 ion-exchange chromatography into two forms with the same mol. wt of 38,000 and similar characteristics. 2. The enzyme was inactivated in the absence of dithiothreitol and complete reactivation was achieved by adding the agent within a critical storage period. 3. The apparent values of pKm and Vmax sensitively increased as ionic strength was raised to 250 mM and phosphate and sodium ions elevated the former value with a further increase of the ionic strength. 4. The apparent activation energies for the alpha (Vmax/Km) and beta (Vmax) parameters of both the forms were approximately 5 and 8 kcal/mol, respectively. 5. The enzyme deaminated 2'-, 3'-deoxyadenosine and 2',3'-isopropylidene adenosine but did not deaminate 5'-deoxyadenosine, alpha-adenosine and adenine nucleotides. 6. The affinity for inosine was much lowered with a high Ki value. Adenine and purine riboside inhibited the enzyme completely, and coformycin was a tight, slow binding inhibitor.

Abstract
IgGs against adenosine deaminase from rat brain, rat liver, mouse duodenum and human erythrocyte were purified from rabbit antisera with yields of 82-87%. The inhibition of adenosine deaminase by the antienzyme is studied, and it is demonstrated that rat and mouse antibodies are tight-binding inhibitors. These antibodies inhibit either the rat or the mouse enzymes and do not inhibit the human erythrocytes enzyme. The human antibody does not inhibit either the human or the rat or mouse enzyme. These results indicate that some differences in antigenic behaviour near the active site must be encountered among species. Comparing the sequenced of the two products corresponding to two adenosine deaminase genes recently sequenced (human and murine) a hypothesis concerning the localization of the adenosine deaminase active site is proposed.

Abstract
A theoretical study is presented, where, by using both ab initio and semi-empirical methodologies, the properties of benzoadenine derivatives as substrates of adenosine deaminase are discussed. The results suggest that lin-benzoadenine and lin-benzoadenosine can be recognized with an affinity similar to that of adenosine, but only if they are introduced about 0.12 nm deeper inside the active site of the enzyme than the natural substrate adenosine. This fact implies the existence of non-linear hydrogen bonds inside the active site of adenosine deaminase. Ab initio molecular electrostatic potential values suggest that these hydrogen bonds can exist, and have stability similar to that of linear hydrogen bonds. Finally, the great rate of deamination of lin-benzoadenine, comparable with that of adenosine despite the absence of the ribose, is explained in the context of the hypothesis that the protonation at the N1 atom is the rate-determining step of the whole deamination reaction.

Abstract
A quantum chemical study of 10 substrates of adenosine deaminase is performed. The conformational preference around the glycosidic bond of several 8-substituted derivatives of adenosine is studied using semiempirical modified neglect of diatomic overlap (MNDO) and Austin model 1 (AM1) methods. All the compounds studied show preference for the anti conformation; the syn - anti energetic differences calculated are small and in excellent agreement with experimental data. A relationship between the ab initio molecular electrostatic potential minimum energy of N3 and the syn - anti energetic difference is found. A highly significant relationship is also found between the ab initio net charge over the purine and pyrimidine rings and the logarithm of the maximum rate of deamination (log Vm) of the nucleosides by adenosine deaminase. In contrast, no significant relationship is found between the anti preference of 8-substituted derivatives of adenosine and their log Vm of deamination.

Abstract
The compound 1,6-dihydropurine ribonucleoside, prepared by reduction of nebularine in the presence of ultraviolet light, is bound by adenosine deaminase approximately 10(8)-fold less tightly than 6-hydroxy-1,6-dihydropurine ribonucleoside, a nearly ideal transition-state analog. This difference in affinities, which is associated with the presence of a single hydroxyl group in the second compound, suggests the degree to which one or a few hydrogen bonds may stabilize the transition state in an enzyme reaction of this type.

Abstract
The 13C NMR spectra of [2-13C]- and [6-13C]purine ribosides have been obtained free in solution and bound to the active site of adenosine deaminase. The positions of the resonances of the bound ligand are shifted relative to those of the free ligand as follows: C-2, -3.7 ppm; C-6, -73.1 ppm. The binary complexes are in slow exchange with free purine riboside on the NMR time scale, and the dissociation rate constant is estimated to be 13.5 s-1 from the slow exchange broadening of the free signal. In aqueous solution, protonation of purine riboside at N-1 results in changes in 13C chemical shift relative to those of the free base as follows: C-2, -4.9 ppm; C-6, -7.9 ppm. The changes in chemical shift that occur when purine riboside binds to the enzyme indicate that the hybridization of C-6 changes from sp2 to sp3 in the binary complex with formation of a new bond to oxygen or sulfur. A change in C-2 hybridization can be eliminated as can protonation at N-1 as the sole cause of the chemical shift changes. The kinetic constants for the adenosine deaminase catalyzed hydrolysis of 6-chloro- and 6-fluoropurine riboside have been compared, and the reactivity order implies that carbon-halogen bond breaking does not occur in the rate-determining step. These observations support a mechanism for the enzyme in which formation of a tetrahedral intermediate is the most difficult chemical step. Enzymic stabilization of this intermediate may be an important catalytic strategy used by the enzyme to lower the standard free energy of the preceding transition state.

Abstract
2'-Deoxycoformycin (2'-dCF), a nucleoside antitumor agent produced in trace quantities by Streptomyces antibioticus, has been shown in earlier work to originate from the intact carbon-nitrogen framework of adenosine. Additional experiments using 13C and two-dimensional Fourier transform NMR techniques, together with radiolabeling studies, identify the C-1 of D-ribose, and not the tetrahydrofolate "C-1 pool", as the source of the C-7 carbon in the aglycon of 2'-dCF. These results show that the adenine portion of adenosine (or a nucleotide thereof) undergoes a unique ring expansion, by insertion of a -CH2- unit between the N-1 and C-6 of the adenine ring, to furnish the 1,3-diazepine portion of 2'-dCF.

Abstract
1. The purified mussel enzyme deaminated several adenosine analogs with different Km and relative Vmax values. Affinity for adenine was similar to that for adenosine but the deamination rate was extremely slow. 2. Purine riboside was competitive, coformycin was a tight, slow binding inhibitor, and inhibition by both these compounds was pH-dependent. 3. Inosine, hypoxanthine, guanosine and 6-mercapto-purine riboside were slightly inhibitory. 4. The results suggested that initial binding of the substrate was guided by the adenine moiety followed by a stereospecific steering due to a ribose-dependent distortion in the complex to facilitate nucleophilic attack at C-6.
