Structural highlights
FunctionADA_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 optimization efforts based on the novel non-nucleoside adenosine deaminase (ADA) inhibitor, 4 (K(i) = 680 nM). Structure-based drug design utilizing the crystal structure of the 4/ADA complex led to discovery of 5 (K(i) = 11 nM, BA = 30% in rats). Furthermore, from metabolic considerations, we discovered two inhibitors with improved oral bioavailability [6 (K(i) = 13 nM, BA = 44%) and 7 (K(i) = 9.8 nM, BA = 42%)]. 6 demonstrated in vivo efficacy in models of inflammation and lymphoma.
