| fructose-1,6-diphosphate reductase | <enzyme> From bovine lens; reduces fructose-1,6-diphosphate to sorbitol-1,6-diphosphate in presence of NADH; 3 isoenzymes which copurify with lactate dehydrogenase isoenzymes Registry number: EC 1.1.1.- Synonym: fdp reductase (26 Jun 1999) |
|---|---|
| fructose 1-phosphate | A fructose derivative that accumulates in individuals with hereditary fructose intolerance. (05 Mar 2000) |
| fructose 2,6-bisphosphate | An analog of fructose 1,6-bisphosphate that plays a key role in the regulation of glycolysis and gluconeogenesis; activates phosphofructokinase and inhibits fructose 1,6-bisphosphatase. (05 Mar 2000) |
| fructose-2,6-bisphosphate 2-phosphatase | <enzyme> Copurifies with 6-phosphofructo-2-kinase; probably is a single protein with both activities; do not confuse with EC 3.1.3.54, fructose-2,6-bisphosphate 6-phosphatase Registry number: EC 3.1.3.46 Synonym: fructose-2,6-diphosphatase, fructose 2,6-bisphosphatase, fructose-2,6-bisphosphatase (26 Jun 1999) |
| fructose-2,6-bisphosphate 6-phosphatase | <enzyme> Do not confuse with fructose-2,6-bisphosphate 2-phosphatase (EC 3.1.3.46) Registry number: EC 3.1.3.54 Synonym: fdp 6-phosphatase, fru(2,6)p2 6-phosphatase (26 Jun 1999) |
| fructose 6-phosphate | <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) |
| fructose-6-phosphate phosphoketolase | <enzyme> Catalyses the conversion of d-fructose 6-phosphate and orthophosphate to acetylphosphate and d-erythrose 4-phosphate and water Registry number: EC 4.1.2.22 Synonym: f6p phosphoketolase (26 Jun 1999) |
| fructose-bisphosphatase | <enzyme> An enzyme that catalyses the conversion of d-fructose 1,6-bisphosphate and water to d-fructose 6-phosphate and orthophosphate. Chemical name: D-Fructose-1,6-bisphosphate 1-phosphohydrolase Registry number: EC 3.1.3.11 (12 Dec 1998) |
| fructose-bisphosphate aldolase | <enzyme> An enzyme of the lyase class that catalyses the cleavage of fructose 1,6-biphosphate to form dihydroxyacetone phosphate and glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate. The enzyme also acts on (3s,4r)-ketose 1-phosphates. The yeast and bacterial enzymes are zinc proteins. (enzyme nomenclature, 1992) e.c. 4.1.2.13. Chemical name: D-Fructose-1,6-biphosphate D-glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate-lyase Registry number: EC 4.1.2.13 (12 Dec 1998) |
| fructose-diphosphate aldolase | <enzyme> An enzyme of the lyase class that catalyses the cleavage of fructose 1,6-biphosphate to form dihydroxyacetone phosphate and glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate. The enzyme also acts on (3s,4r)-ketose 1-phosphates. The yeast and bacterial enzymes are zinc proteins. (enzyme nomenclature, 1992) e.c. 4.1.2.13. Chemical name: D-Fructose-1,6-biphosphate D-glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate-lyase Registry number: EC 4.1.2.13 (12 Dec 1998) |
| fructose metabolism, inborn errors | Inherited abnormalities of fructose metabolism, which include three known autosomal recessive types: hepatic fructokinase deficiency (essential fructosuria), hereditary fructose intolerance, and hereditary fructose-1,6-diphosphatase deficiency. Essential fructosuria is a benign asymptomatic metabolic disorder caused by deficiency in fructokinase, leading to decreased conversion of fructose to fructose-1-phosphate and alimentary hyperfructosaemia, but with no clinical dysfunction; may produce a false-positive diabetes test. (12 Dec 1998) |
| fructose permease | <chemical> Fructose-specific enzyme II of phosphoenolpyruvate-dependent phosphotransferase system in e. Coli (26 Jun 1999) |
| Albright's hereditary osteodystrophy | An inherited form of hyperparathyroidism associated with ectopic calcification and ossification and skeletal defects, notably the small fourth metacarpals, but intelligence is normal. There are dominant, recessive and X-linked forms. See: pseudohypoparathyroidism. Synonym: Albright's syndrome. (05 Mar 2000) |
| angioedema, hereditary | A genetic form of angioedema. (Angioedema is also referred to as Quinke's disease.) Persons with it are born lacking an inhibitor protein (called C1 esterase inhibitor) that normally prevents activation of a cascade of proteins leading to the swelling of angioedema. Patients can develop recurrent attacks of swollen tissues, pain in the abdomen, and swelling of the voice box (larynx) which can compromise breathing. The diagnosis is suspected with a history of recurrent angioedema. It is confirmed by finding abnormally low levels of C1 esterase inhibitor in the blood. Treatment options include antihistamines and male steroids (androgens) that can also prevent the recurrent attacks. Also called hereditary angioneurotic oedema. (12 Dec 1998) |
