  2. Adenosine deaminase deficiency - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adenosine_deaminase_deficiency

    The enzyme adenosine deaminase is encoded by the ADA gene on chromosome 20. [1] ADA deficiency is inherited in an autosomal recessive manner. This means the defective gene responsible for the disorder is located on an autosome (chromosome 20 is an autosome), and two copies of the defective gene (one inherited from each parent) are required in order to be born with the disorder.

    Adenosine deaminase (also known as adenosine aminohydrolase, or ADA) is an enzyme ( EC 3.5.4.4) involved in purine metabolism. It is needed for the breakdown of adenosine from food and for the turnover of nucleic acids in tissues. Its primary function in humans is the development and maintenance of the immune system. [ 5]
