| GMP | A major component of ribonucleic acids. Synonym: guanine ribonucleotide, guanosine 5'-monophosphate. Guanylic acid reductase (GMP reductase), an enzyme that catalyses the reaction of GMP with NADPH producing IMP, NH3, and NADP+; a part of the purine salvage pathway. Guanylic acid synthetase (GMP synthetase), an enzyme catalyzing the reaction of l-glutamine, XMP, and ATP to produce GMP, l-glutamate, AMP, and pyrophosphate; a key step in purine biosynthesis. Acronym: GMP (05 Mar 2000) |

| cyclic GMP-dependent protein kinases | <enzyme> A group of enzymes that are dependent on cyclic GMP and catalyses the phosphorylation of serine or threonine residues of proteins. Registry number: EC 2.7.10.- (12 Dec 1998) |
| cyclic GMP sensitive 3'-exoribonuclease | <enzyme> Degradation of newly synthesised RNA in cells of bacillus brevis is mediated primarily by above enzyme Registry number: EC 3.1.14.- Synonym: cgmp-exoribonuclease (26 Jun 1999) |
| dibutyryl cyclic GMP | <chemical> N-(1-oxobutyl)-cyclic 3',5'-(hydrogen phosphate)-2'-butanoate guanosine. A derivative of cyclic GMP. It has a higher resistance to extracellular and intracellular phosphodiesterase than cyclic GMP.

| 3',5'-cyclic-GMP phosphodiesterase | <enzyme> An enzyme that catalyses the hydrolysis of cyclic GMP to yield guanosine-5'-phosphate. Chemical name: 3',5'-Cyclic-GMP 5'-nucleotidohydrolase Registry number: EC 3.1.4.35 (12 Dec 1998) |
| acetoacetyl-CoA synthetase | <enzyme> Catalyses the conversion of acetoacetate and CoA in the presence of ATP to yield AMP, pyrophosphate and acetoacetyl-CoA; the latter is the first intermediate in cholesterogenesis; also acts more slowly on l-3-hydroxybutanoate Registry number: EC 6.2.1.16 Synonym: acetoacetyl-CoA ligase, acetoacetate-CoA ligase, acetoacetyl-coenzyme a synthetase (26 Jun 1999) |
| acetyl-CoA synthetase | A ligase that catalyses the reaction of acetate and CoA and ATP to form AMP, pyrophosphate, and acetyl-CoA. A key step in the activation of acetate. Synonym: acetate thiokinase, acetate-CoA ligase, acetyl-activating enzyme, acetyl-CoA synthetase. (05 Mar 2000) |
| acid cholesterol ester synthetase | <enzyme> Aortal enzyme, does not require exogenous ATP or CoA; reverse reaction of cholesterol esterase Registry number: EC 3.1.1.- Synonym: cholesterol ester synthetase (26 Jun 1999) |
| acyl-CoA synthetase | General term for enzymes that form acyl-CoA, now called ligases, specifically, long-chain fatty acid-CoA ligase. (05 Mar 2000) |
