Catalyzes the hydrolytic deamination of cytosine to uracil or 5-methylcytosine to thymine. Is involved in the pyrimidine salvage pathway, which allows the cell to utilize cytosine for pyrimidine nucleotide synthesis. Source: Recombinant protein corresponding to aa1-158 from Saccharomyces cerevisiae Cytosine deaminase, fused to 10X His-Tag at N-terminal and Myc-Tag at C-terminal, expressed in E.coli.
