| lactococcal lysine aminopeptidase | <enzyme> Amino acid sequence given in first source Registry number: EC 3.4.11.- Synonym: lysine aminopeptidase, lactococcus (26 Jun 1999) |
| lactococcus | A genus of gram-positive, coccoid bacteria mainly isolated from milk and milk products. These bacteria are also found in plants and nonsterile frozen and dry foods. Previously thought to be a member of the genus streptococcus (group n), it is now recognised as a separate genus. (12 Dec 1998) |
| lactococcus lactis | A non-pathogenic lactococcus found in dairy products and responsible for the souring of milk. (12 Dec 1998) |
| lactocrit | An instrument used to estimate the amount of butterfat in milk. Origin: Lacto-+ G. Krino, to separate (05 Mar 2000) |
| lactodensimeter | A type of galactometer. Origin: Lacto-+ L. Densus, thick, + G. Metron, measure (05 Mar 2000) |
| lactoferrin | <protein> Iron binding protein of very high affinity (Kd 10exp 19 at pH 6.4, 26 fold greater than that of transferrin) found in milk and in the specific granules of neutrophil leucocytes. (18 Nov 1997) |
| lactoflavin | 1. The flavin in milk. Synonym: lactochrome. Synonym: riboflavin. (05 Mar 2000) |
| lactogen | An agent that stimulates milk production or secretion. Origin: Lacto-+ G. -gen, producing Human placental lactogen (HPL), lactogen isolated from human placentas and structurally similar to somatotropin; its biological activity weakly mimics that of somatotropin and prolactin; secreted into maternal circulation; a deficiency of HPL during pregnancy leads to children having abnormal intrauterine and postnatal growth. Synonym: choriomammotropin, chorionic "growth hormone-prolactin", human chorionic somatomammotropic hormone, human chorionic somatomammotropin, placenta protein, placental growth hormone, purified placental protein. (05 Mar 2000) |
| lactogenesis | Milk production. Origin: Lacto-+ G. Genesis, production (05 Mar 2000) |
| lactogenic | Pertaining to lactogenesis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| lactogenic factor | <protein> Pituitary lactogenic hormone (23 kD) Synthesised on endoplasmic reticulum bound ribosomes as preprolactin that has an N terminal signal peptide that is cleaved from the mature form. The conversion of preprolactin to prolactin has been much used as an assay for membrane insertion. (18 Nov 1997) |
