| calcium pyrophosphate | <chemical> Diphosphoric acid, calcium salt. An inorganic pyrophosphate which affects calcium metabolism in mammals. Abnormalities in its metabolism occur in some human diseases, notably hypophosphatasia and pseudogout. Chemical name: Diphosphoric acid, calcium salt (12 Dec 1998) |
|---|---|
| calcium pyrophosphate deposition disease | <radiology> Manifestations can occur singly or in any combination, pseudogout, acute crystal-induced synovitis with clinical symptoms analogous to gout, arthropathy, beaklike osteophytes of 2nd, 3rd metacarpal heads, subchondral cysts (especially carpal bones), unusual distribution of disease (radiocarpal/ulnar joint, patellofemoral joint), SLAC - scapholunate advanced collapse, chondrocalcinosis, triangular fibrocartilage, symphysis pubis, menisci of knee, annulus fibrosus of intervertebral disk (12 Dec 1998) |
| 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) |
| prelycopersene pyrophosphate synthetase | <chemical> Synonym: prephytoene pyrophosphate synthetase, prephytoene synthase (26 Jun 1999) |
| 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) |
| pyrophosphate-nucleoside kinase | <enzyme> From acholeplasma laidlawii; phosphorylates adenosine, inosine, and guanosine to the corresponding mononucleotides Registry number: EC 2.7.1.- Synonym: ppi dependent nucleoside kinase (26 Jun 1999) |
| pyrophosphate-protein phosphotransferase | <enzyme> Not dependent on ATP; inhibited by fluoride Registry number: EC 2.7.1.- (26 Jun 1999) |
| pyrophosphate-serine phosphotransferase | <enzyme> Catalyses the conversion of pyrophosphate and serine to form phosphoserine and orthophosphate Registry number: EC 2.7.1.80 (26 Jun 1999) |
| pyrophosphate translocase | <enzyme> A component of the glucose-6-phosphatase (g6pase, EC 3.1.3.9) enzyme complex; facilitates the transfer of pyrophosphate between the cell cytosol and the lumen of the endoplasmic reticulum where the g6pase enzyme is situated Registry number: EC 2.7.- (26 Jun 1999) |
| nucleotide pyrophosphate transferase | <enzyme> Transfers the beta, gamma pyrophosphate group from ATP to 3'-hydroxy group of ribonucleotides, oligonucleotides or trna Registry number: EC 2.7.6.- (26 Jun 1999) |
| decaprenyl pyrophosphate synthetase | <enzyme> Forms all-trans-decaprenyl pyrophosphate from isopentenyl pyrophosphate and either farnesyl pyrophosphate or geranylgeranyl pyrophosphate; does not transfer dimethylallyl or geranyl groups Registry number: EC 2.5.1.- Synonym: dp-pp-synthetase (26 Jun 1999) |
