Application

Application Comment Organism
molecular biology AdoHcyase overexpression results in elevated adenosine levels and decreased cell viability. Furthermore, AdoHcyase overexpressing cells show different features typical for apoptosis (cell detachment, caspase-like activity, DNA fragmentation), suggesting that cell death is due to apoptosis Homo sapiens

Protein Variants

Protein Variants Comment Organism
additional information HEK-293 cell lines stably overexpressing AdoHcyase are generated. 2-5fold overexpression of AdoHcyase is well tolerated by the cell, while greatly enhanced AdoHcyase activity results in adenosine-induced apoptosis. The fact that enhanced AdoHcyase activity does not increase transmethylation activity suggests that AdoHcyase activity under physiological conditions is not rate limiting for efficient transmethylation Homo sapiens
