Solution:
The enzyme adenosine deaminase (ADA) is produced many body cells, particularly lymphocytes. Lymphocytes play an important role in immunity.
Adenosine deaminase enzyme converts a toxic molecule called deoxyadenosine, generated when DNA is broken down, into a nontoxic deoxyinosine. ADA deficiency affects the proliferation of lymphocytes leading to severe combined immunodeficiency (SCID).
