Application

Application Comment Organism
medicine thymocytes lacking adenosine deaminase activity accumulate intracellular dATP and undergo apoptosis. Inhibition of deoxycytidine kinase prevents the accumulation of dATP and induction of apoptosis to a large degree, inhibition of both deoxycytidine kinase and adenosine kinase completely abrogates accumulation of dATP and significantly reduces the induction of apoptosis Homo sapiens
