|---|---|
| L-galactonolactone oxidase | <enzyme> Flavin-containing enzyme from yeast which utilises oxygen as electron acceptor; forms ascorbic acid Registry number: EC 1.3.3.24 Synonym: galactono-gamma-lactone oxidase, l-galactono-1,4-lactone-oxygen 3-oxidoreductase (26 Jun 1999) |
| L-gulonolactone oxidase | <enzyme> Forms ascorbic acid Registry number: EC 1.1.3.8 Synonym: l-gulonooxidase, l-gulono-gamma-lactone dehydrogenase, l-gulono-gamma-lactone oxidase (26 Jun 1999) |
| lignoceroyl-CoA oxidase | <enzyme> Catalyses the beta-oxidation of lignoceroyl-CoA Registry number: EC 1.3.3.- (26 Jun 1999) |
| L-lysine oxidase | <enzyme> Converts l-lysine to 2-oxo-6-aminohexanoate Registry number: EC 1.4.3.14 Synonym: l-lysine-alpha oxidase (26 Jun 1999) |
| L-tryptophan 2',3'-oxidase | <enzyme> Specifically catalyses the alpha,beta-dehydrogenation of l- tryptophan derivatives; from chromobacterium violaceum Registry number: EC 1.3.99.- Synonym: l-tryptophan - oxygen 2',3'-oxidoreductase, l-trp-2',3'-oxidase (26 Jun 1999) |
| lysyl oxidase | <enzyme> Extracellular enzyme that deaminates lysine and hydroxylysine residues in collagen or elastin to form aldehydes, that then interact with each other or with other lysyl side chains to form crosslinks. (18 Nov 1997) |
| accelerated reaction | A response occurring in a shorter time than expected; the cutaneous manifestations occurring during the period between the second and tenth day following smallpox vaccination; because it is intermediate between a primary reaction and an immediate reaction, it is regarded as evidence of some degree of resistance. Synonym: vaccinoid reaction. (05 Mar 2000) |
| acid reaction | Any test by which an acid reaction is recognised such as the change of blue litmus paper to red, an excess of hydrogen ions over hydroxide ions in aqueous solution indicated by a pH value less than 7 (at 22캜). Compare: dissociation constant of water. (05 Mar 2000) |
| acute-phase reaction | <immunology, rheumatology> Refers to the changes in synthesis of certain proteins within the serum during an inflammatory response, which provides rapid protection for the host against microorganisms via non-specific defense mechanisms. It consists of fever, an increase in inflammatory humoral factors, and an increased synthesis by hepatocytes of a number of proteins or glycoproteins usually found in the plasma; the reaction is mediated by endogenous pyrogens, the hypothalamus, adrenal hormones, and other factors. (12 Jul 2000) |
| acute situational reaction | An acute emotional reaction related to extreme environmental stress. Synonym: acute situational reaction. (05 Mar 2000) |
| acute stress reaction | A sudden bout of anxiety that is often accompanied by the features of hyperventilation (tingling around mouth and in fingertips, rapid breathing, faintness or fainting). (27 Sep 1997) |
| addition reaction | <chemistry> Any reaction in which two chemicals combine to form a single chemical. (15 Jan 1998) |
| adverse drug reaction reporting systems | Systems developed for collecting reports from government agencies, manufacturers, hospitals, physicians, and other sources on adverse drug reactions. (12 Dec 1998) |
| adverse reaction | Any undesirable or unwanted consequence of a preventive, diagnostic, or therapeutic procedure or regimen. (05 Mar 2000) |
