cytidine deaminase
Since the chemotherapy drug 5-FU is harmful to other normal cells in the human body, while 5-FC is harmless, we have decided to convert 5-FC into 5-FU in the intestines. Therefore, through genetic engineering technology, we have enabled E. coli Rosetta to express CDase. In the intestines, cytosine deaminase (CD) converts a non-toxic prodrug, 5-fluorocytosine (5-FC), into a toxic chemotherapy drug, 5-fluorouracil (5-FU), reducing the harm of 5-FU to the human body.
