Structural highlights
Function[ADA_BOVIN] Catalyzes the hydrolytic deamination of adenosine and 2-deoxyadenosine. Plays an important role in purine metabolism and in adenosine homeostasis. Modulates signaling by extracellular adenosine, and so contributes indirectly to cellular signaling events. Acts as a positive regulator of T-cell coactivation, by binding DPP4. Its interaction with DPP4 regulates lymphocyte-epithelial cell adhesion (By similarity). Evolutionary Conservation Check, as determined by ConSurfDB.

Publication Abstract from PubMedWe disclose herein the rapid discovery of the first highly potent (Ki = 7.7 nM) non-nucleoside adenosine deaminase (ADA) inhibitor based on the rational hybridization of two structurally distinct leads. Two micromolar inhibitors were discovered by a parallel rational design and random screening program, and individual crystal structures of bovine ADA in complexation with these inhibitors revealed several unknown binding sites and distinct binding modes. Using this information as the starting point, highly effective lead hybridization was achieved in only two structure-based drug design iterations. The conceptual approach illustrated by this example promises to be broadly useful in the search for new chemical entities and can contribute greatly to improve the overall efficiency and speed of drug discovery.
