MeSH definition : An enzyme that catalyzes reversibly the phosphorylation of deoxycytidine with the
formation of a nucleoside diphosphate and deoxycytidine monophosphate. Cytosine arabinoside
can also act as an acceptor. All natural nucleoside triphosphates, except deoxycytidine
triphosphate, can act as donors. The enzyme is induced by some viruses, particularly
the herpes simplex virus (HERPESVIRUS HOMINIS). EC 2.7.1.74.;
MeSH synonym : kinase, deoxycytidine;
MeSH CAS label : NTP:deoxycytidine 5'-phosphotransferase;
MeSH Related Number : 9039-45-6 (CAS RN);
Registry Number MeSH : EC 2.7.1.74;
