Descriptor English: Deoxycytidine Kinase
Descriptor Spanish: Desoxicitidina Quinasa
Descriptor desoxicitidina cinasa
Scope note: Enzima que cataliza reversiblemente la fosforilación de desoxicitidina con formación de un nucleósido difosfato y desoxicitidina monofosfato. También puede actuar como aceptor la citosina arabinósida. Pueden actuar como donadores todos los nucleósidos trifosfatos naturales, excepto la desoxicitidina trifosfato. La enzima es inducida por algunos virus, particularmente el virus del herpes simple (HERPESVIRUS HOMINI). EC 2.7.1.74.
Descriptor Portuguese: Desoxicitidina Quinase
Descriptor French: Deoxycytidine kinase
Entry term(s): Kinase, Deoxycytidine
Tree number(s): D08.811.913.696.620.175
RDF Unique Identifier: https://id.nlm.nih.gov/mesh/D003842
Scope note: An enzyme that catalyzes reversibly the phosphorylation of deoxycytidine with the formation of a nucleoside diphosphate and deoxycytidine monophosphate. Cytosine arabinoside can also act as an acceptor. All natural nucleoside triphosphates, except deoxycytidine triphosphate, can act as donors. The enzyme is induced by some viruses, particularly the herpes simplex virus (HERPESVIRUS HOMINIS). EC 2.7.1.74.
