| phorbol ester | <chemical> Polycyclic compound isolated from croton oil in which two hydroxyl groups on neighbouring carbon atoms are esterified to fatty acids. The commonest of these derivatives is phorbol myristoyl acetate (PMA). Potent co carcinogens or tumour promotors, they are diacyl glycerol analogues and activate protein kinase C irreversibly.

| Cori ester | An important intermediate in glycogenesis and glycogenolysis. Synonym: Cori ester. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Harden-Young ester | D-fructose 1,6-bisphosphate;important intermediate in sugar metabolism. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Neuberg ester | <biochemistry> A phosphorylated six-carbon sugar formed in the second step of glycolysis by the action of phosphoglucose isomerase on glucose-6-phosphate. In the third step, fructose 6-phospate and ATP are used to create fructose 1,6-biphosphate, ADP and a free hydrogen with the aid of phosphofructokinase. (08 Mar 2000) |
| ng-nitroarginine methyl ester | <chemical> A non-selective inhibitor of nitric oxide synthase. It has been used experimentally to induce hypertension. Pharmacological action: enzyme inhibitors. (12 Dec 1998) |
| sugar ester | Ester of a sugar with an organic or inorganic acid; e.g., d-glucose-6-phosphate. (05 Mar 2000) |
| thiol ester | An ester formed from a carboxylic acid and a thiol (i.e., RCO-SR') e.g., acetyl-coenzyme A. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Embden ester | Hexose phosphate;a mixture of d-glucose-6-phosphate and d-fructose 6-phosphate; significant in the understanding of sugar metabolism. (05 Mar 2000) |
| tosylarginine methyl ester | <chemical> N(2)-(p-tolylsulfonyl)-l-arginine, methyl ester. Arginine derivative which is a substrate for many proteolytic enzymes. As a substrate for the esterase from the first component of complement, it inhibits the action of c(l) on c(4). Chemical name: L-Arginine, N2-((4-methylphenyl)sulfonyl)-, methyl ester (12 Dec 1998) |
| ester | <chemistry> A general term for any organic molecule produced by combining an acid with an alcohol. A derivative of carboxylic acid (acid with a carboxyl group -COOH) which has the general formula RCOOR, where the R's stand for the same or different aliphatic groups (alkyl groups), aromatic groups (aryl groups), or hydrogen ions. (09 Oct 1997) |

| fatty acyl ethyl ester synthase | <enzyme> Myocardial enzyme; esterifies free fatty acids in the absence of ATP and coenzyme a; the fatty acid ethyl ester synthase III has homology with glutathione s-transferase Registry number: EC 2.3.1.- Synonym: fatty acid ethyl ester synthase, fatty acid ethyl ester synthase III, faee synthase, faees-iii gene product (26 Jun 1999) |
| 7-hydroxycoumarinyl ester hyrolase | <enzyme> A recombinant cytosolic phospholipase a2 that not only possesses pla2 and lyso-pl activities, but also hydrolyzes simple fatty acid esters of 7-hydroxycoumarin Registry number: EC 3.1.1.- Synonym: 7-hcease (26 Jun 1999) |
| acetyl-CoA hydrolase | <enzyme> An enzyme that catalyses reversibly the hydrolysis of acetyl-CoA to yield CoA and acetate. The enzyme is involved in the oxidation of fatty acids. Chemical name: Acetyl-CoA hydrolase Registry number: EC 3.1.2.1 (12 Dec 1998) |
