In enzymology, a deoxycytidine deaminase (EC 3.5.4.14) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction

deoxycytidine + H₂O $\rightleftharpoons$ deoxyuridine + NH₃

Thus, the two substrates of this enzyme are deoxycytidine and H₂O, whereas its two products are deoxyuridine and NH₃.

This enzyme belongs to the family of hydrolases, those acting on carbon-nitrogen bonds other than peptide bonds, specifically in cyclic amidines. The systematic name of this enzyme class is deoxycytidine aminohydrolase. This enzyme participates in pyrimidine metabolism.
