the regulatory properties of adenylate deaminase ( ec 3.5.4.6 ) from ehrlich ascites tumor cells suggest that the reaction catalyzed by this enzyme serves to protect the cell against sharp decreases in the adenylate energy charge by removing adenosine 5'-monophosphate generated when the rate of utilization of adenosine triphosphate is suddenly increased .
