double-stranded RNA adenine deaminase
Reaction
adenine in double-stranded RNA + H2O = hypoxanthine in double-stranded RNA + NH3
Other name(s)
ADAR, double-stranded RNA adenosine deaminase, dsRAD, dsRNA adenosine deaminase, DRADA1, double-stranded RNA-specific adenosine deaminase
Systematic name
double-stranded RNA adenine aminohydrolase
