| arginine-trna ligase | <enzyme> An enzyme that activates arginine with its specific transfer RNA. Chemical name: L-Arginine:tRNA(Arg)ligase (AMP-forming) Registry number: EC 6.1.1.19 (12 Dec 1998) |
|---|---|
| arginine vasopressin | [8-arginine]vasopressin; [Arg8]vasopressin;vasopressin containing an arginyl residue in position 8 (as in chickens and most mammals, including man); porcine vasopressin has a lysyl residue at position 8. All are vasopressors. Synonym: argipressin. (05 Mar 2000) |
| arginine vasotocin | Vasotocin with arginyl residue at position 8 (identical with arginine oxytocin). See: arginine vasopressin. (05 Mar 2000) |
| beta-alanyl-arginine hydrolase | <enzyme> Also hydrolyzes carnosine, at a lower rate; requires mn2+; inhibited by bestatin; stabilised by sulfhydryl reagents Registry number: EC 3.4.13.- Synonym: ala-arg hydrolase (26 Jun 1999) |
| calcium-calmodulin-activated histone 3 arginine kinase | <enzyme> From nuclear extracts of dividing and quiescent rat heart endothelial cells; represents a new class of ca-cam-dependent kinases which phosphorylate arg Registry number: EC 2.7.10.- Synonym: ca(2+)-calmodulin-activated histone 3 arg kinase, ca-cam h3 kinase (26 Jun 1999) |
| complement 5a, des-arginine | Complement 5a with the carboxy-terminal arginine removed. The arginine is rapidly cleaved from the c5a fragment during complement activation by carboxypeptidase b present in normal human serum. C5a des-arg shows complete loss of spasmogenic activity though it retains some chemotactic ability. (12 Dec 1998) |
| protein-arginine n-methyltransferase | <enzyme> An enzyme that catalyses the methylation of arginine residues of proteins to yield n-mono- and n,n-dimethylarginine. This enzyme is found in many organs, primarily brain and spleen. Chemical name: S-Adenosyl-L-methionine:protein-L-arginine N-methyltransferase Registry number: EC 2.1.1.23 (12 Dec 1998) |
| NAD(p)-arginine ADP-ribosyltransferase | <enzyme> An enzyme that catalyses the transfer of the ADP-ribose moiety from NAD to specific protein substrates with agmatine, arginine-type compounds, or guanidine as acceptors. This reaction can be catalyzed by prokaryotic and eukaryotic enzyme systems. Mono-ADP-ribosylation is a mechanism of action common to several bacterial toxins. It effects profound changes in cellular metabolism, such as activation of adenylate cyclase, regulation of protein synthesis at the level of elongation factor 2, and ion transport across biological membranes. Chemical name: NAD(+)-L-arginine ADP-D-ribosyltransferase Registry number: EC 2.4.2.31 (12 Dec 1998) |
| N-arginine dibasic convertase | <enzyme> Catalyses cleavage at the n-terminus of arginine residues in dibasic stretches of proteins; located in brain cortex; genbank l27124 Registry number: EC 3.4.24.- Synonym: nrd convertase, n-arg dibasic convertase (26 Jun 1999) |
| acetyl phosphate | CH3CO-OPO32-;a "high energy" phosphate that acts as an acetate donor in the metabolism of various bacteria. Synonym: acetic phosphoric anhydride. (05 Mar 2000) |
| acidulated phosphate fluoride | <chemical> Phosphoric acid, mixt. With sodium fluoride (naf). A sodium fluoride solution, paste or powder, which has been acidulated to pH 3 to 4 and buffered with a phosphate. It is used in the prevention of dental caries. Pharmacological action: fluorides, topical. Chemical name: Phosphoric acid, mixt. With sodium fluoride (NaF) (12 Dec 1998) |
| acyl dihydroxyacetone phosphate oxidoreductase | <enzyme> Forms acyl-sn-glycerol 3-phosphate; uses NADPH Registry number: EC 1.1.1.- (26 Jun 1999) |
| adenosine 3',5'-cyclic phosphate phosphodiesterase | <enzyme> An enzyme that catalyses the hydrolysis of adenosine 3',5'-cyclic phosphate forming 5'-AMP. A crucial step in the regulation of cellular adenosine 3',5'-cyclic phosphate levels. Inhibited by caffeine. Synonym: cAMP phosphodiesterase. (05 Mar 2000) |
| adenosine 3'-phosphate | 3'-Adenylic acid. See: adenylic acid. (05 Mar 2000) |
| adenosine 3'-phosphate 5'-phosphosulfate | 3'-phosphoadenosine 5'-phosphosulfate;an intermediate in the formation of urinary ethereal sulfates, notable for containing a "high energy" sulfate bond; the 3'-OH of adenosine is replaced by -OPO3H2, the 5'-OH by -OP(O2H)-OSO3H. Synonym: active sulfate. Acronym: PAPS (05 Mar 2000) |
