Structural highlights
Function
MTAD_THEMA Catalyzes the deamination of 5-methylthioadenosine and S-adenosyl-L-homocysteine into 5-methylthioinosine and S-inosyl-L-homocysteine, respectively. Is also able to deaminate adenosine. Adenosine-5-monophosphate (AMP) and S-adenosyl-L-methionine (SAM) are not enzyme substrates.[1]
