Background: Adenosine Deaminase 2/CECR1

Adenosine deaminase is one of the key enzymes of purine nucleotide metabolism. It catalyses the conversion of adenosine and deoxy-adenosine to inosine and deoxy-inosine, respectively (1, 2). Adenosine Deaminase 2 (ADA2) is also known as CECR1 because it is a candidate gene for cat eye syndrome, a developmental disorder (3). ADA is a secreted protein that is expressed in many tissues, with the highest expression in lymphoblasts, heart, lung, and placenta (4). ADA2 is a member of a family of adenosine deaminase-related growth factors (ADGFs), proteins that are involved in tissue development (4). ADA2 induces the differentiation of monocytes into macrophages and stimulates the proliferation of T helper cells and macrophages by a mechanism independent of its catalytic activity (5). It has been suggested that ADA2 could be a therapeutic target for the control of immune responses in inflammation and cancer (5).
