| triorthocresyl phosphate | A triaryl phosphate; produces a delayed neurotoxicity. An infamous incident occurred when it appeared as an adulterant in Jamaica ginger and was responsible for thousands of cases of paralysis during the Prohibition era. (05 Mar 2000) |
| triple phosphate | Magnesium ammonium phosphate, MgNH4PO4, a crude phosphate fertiliser product from phosphate rock and phosphoric acid. Trisodium phosphate, Na3PO4;used to emulsify fats, oil, and grease; an irritant. (05 Mar 2000) |
| trolnitrate phosphate | Triethanolamine trinitrate diphosphate;an organic nitrate with mild but persistent vasodilator action on smooth muscle of the smaller vessels of postarteriolar vascular beds; used to prevent attacks of angina pectoris. (05 Mar 2000) |
| erythrose 4-phosphate dehydrogenase | <enzyme> From E coli; catalyses erythrose 4-phosphate to erythronate 4-phosphate in the presence of nad Registry number: EC 1.2.1.- Synonym: erythrose 4-p dehydrogenase, gapb gene product (26 Jun 1999) |
| estramustine phosphate sodium | Estra-1,3,5(10)-triene-3,17-diol(17b)-, 3-[bis(2-chloroethyl)carbamate] 17-(dihydrogen phosphate), disodium salt;an antineoplastic agent that combines the actions of oestrogen and nitrogen mustard in the treatment of carcinoma of the prostate. (05 Mar 2000) |
| udpglucose-hexose-1-phosphate uridylyltransferase | <enzyme> An enzyme that catalyses the transfer of ump from udpglucose to galactose 1-phosphate, forming udpgalactose and glucose 1-phosphate. Deficiency in this enzyme is the major cause of galactosaemia. Chemical name: UDPglucose:alpha-D-galactose-1-phosphate uridylyltransferase Registry number: EC 2.7.7.12 (12 Dec 1998) |
| ketose-1-phosphate aldolase | Fructose bisphosphate aldolase. (05 Mar 2000) |
| undecaprenyl-phosphate galactosephosphotransferase | <enzyme> Involved in o-antigen subunit processing; isolated from salmonella enterica. Registry number: EC 2.7.8.6 Synonym: rfbp gene product, galactosyl-pyrophosphate-undecaprenol synthetase, galactosyl-p-p-undecaprenol synthetase, galactosyl-1-phosphate transferase, wbap protein (26 Jun 1999) |
| zinc phosphate cement | <chemical> A material used for cementation of inlays, crowns, bridges, and orthodontic appliances and occasionally as a temporary restoration. It is prepared by mixing zinc oxide and magnesium oxide powders with a liquid consisting principally of phosphoric acid, water, and buffers. Chemical name: Phosphoric acid, zinc salt (2:3) (12 Dec 1998) |
| ferric phosphate | A compound used as a feed and as a food supplement. Soluble ferric phosphate, ferric phosphate with sodium citrate; a haematinic. (05 Mar 2000) |
| utp-glucose-1-phosphate uridylyltransferase | <enzyme> An enzyme that catalyses the formation of udpglucose from utp plus glucose 1-phosphate. Chemical name: UTP:alpha-D-glucose-1-phosphate uridylyltransferase Registry number: EC 2.7.7.9 (12 Dec 1998) |
| utp-hexose-1-phosphate uridylyltransferase | <enzyme> An enzyme that catalyses the synthesis of udpgalactose from utp and galactose-1-phosphate. It is present in low levels in foetal and infant liver, but increases with age, thereby enabling galactosaemic infants who survive to develop the capacity to metabolise galactose. Chemical name: UTP:alpha-D-hexose-1-phosphate uridylyltransferase Registry number: EC 2.7.7.10 (12 Dec 1998) |
| L-3,4-dihydroxy-2-butanone-4-phosphate synthase | <enzyme> Catalyses the conversion of d-ribulose 5-phosphate to l-3,4-dihydroxy-2-butanone-4-phosphate plus formate derived from carbon 4 of ribulose 5-p Registry number: EC 5.4.- Synonym: dbp synthase (26 Jun 1999) |
| 2,5-diamino-6-hydroxy-4-ribosylaminopyrimidine-5'-phosphate reductase | <enzyme> Nadp-dependent; forms 2,5-diamino-6-hydroxy-4-ribitylaminopyrimidine-5'-phosphate; intermediate in riboflavin biosynthesis Registry number: EC 1.1.1.- Synonym: dahrampp reductase, 2,5-diamino-4-oxy-6-ribosylaminopyrimidine-5'-phosphate reductase (26 Jun 1999) |
