Preferred Label : 2',5'-oligoadenylate synthetase;
MeSH definition : An enzyme that catalyzes the conversion of ATP into a series of (2'-5') linked oligoadenylates
and pyrophosphate in the presence of double-stranded RNA. These oligonucleotides activate
an endoribonuclease (RNase L) which cleaves single-stranded RNA. Interferons can act
as inducers of these reactions. EC 2.7.7.-.; An enzyme that catalyzes the conversion of ATP into a series of (2'-5') linked oligoadenylates
and pyrophosphate in the presence of double-stranded RNA. These oligonucleotides activate
an endoribonuclease (RNase L) which cleaves single-stranded RNA. Interferons can act
as inducers of these reactions.;
