Deaminationbased
Deaminationbased is a term that describes processes or reactions that involve deamination. Deamination is a chemical reaction that occurs in organic compounds, particularly in biological systems. It involves the removal of an amino group (NH2) from a molecule. This amino group can be replaced by a hydroxyl group (OH) or another functional group, depending on the specific reaction and the molecule involved.
In biochemistry, deamination is a crucial step in the metabolism of amino acids. When amino acids are
Deamination also plays a role in the synthesis and degradation of nucleic acids. For instance, cytosine, adenine,
