| aneurine pyrophosphate | The diphosphoric ester of thiamin, a coenzyme of several (de)carboxylases, transketolases, and alpha-oxoacid dehydrogenases. Synonym: aneurine pyrophosphate, cocarboxylase, diphosphothiamin. (05 Mar 2000) |
| geranylgeranyl pyrophosphate | A key intermediate in the biosynthesis of many terpenes. (05 Mar 2000) |
| geranyl pyrophosphate | A key intermediate in the biosynthesis of sterols, dolichols, ubiquinone, and prenylated proteins. (05 Mar 2000) |
| geranyl pyrophosphate-sabinene hydrate cyclase | <enzyme> Enzyme from sweet marjoram; catalyses cation-dependent cyclization of geranyl pyrophosphate to cis and trans sabinene hydrate, deriving oh from water, not from the pyrophosphate ester Registry number: EC 5.5.- Synonym: sabinene hydrate cyclase, sabinene hydrate synthase (26 Jun 1999) |
| phosphoribosyl pyrophosphate | <chemical> The key substance in the biosynthesis of histidine, tryptophan, and purine and pyrimidine nucleotides. Chemical name: alpha-D-Ribofuranose, 5-(dihydrogen phosphate) 1-(trihydrogen diphosphate) (12 Dec 1998) |

| prephytoene pyrophosphate dehydrogenase | <enzyme> Encoded by gene crte; reaction product of above enzyme is a phytoene; gene found in the cyanella (plastid) DNA of an eukaryotic alga, cyanophora paradoxa; amino acid sequence given in first source Registry number: EC 1.- Synonym: ppp-dehydrogenase, crte gene product, geranylgeranyl pyrophosphate synthase, geranylgeranyl-pyrophosphate synthase, albino-3 gene product (26 Jun 1999) |
| pyrophosphate | <chemistry> Two phosphate groups linked by esterification. Released in many of the synthetic steps involving nucleotide triphosphates (e.g. Protein and nucleic acid elongation). Rapid cleavage by enzymes that have high substrate affinity ensures that these reactions are essentially irreversible. (18 Nov 1997) |
