| 8-lysine vasopressin | <chemical> 8-lysyl vasopressin. The porcine antidiuretic hormone most frequently used clinically. A cyclic nonapeptide with lysine in position 8 of the chain; it is used to treat diabetes insipidus and as haemostatic because of its vasoconstrictor action. Pharmacological action: haemostatics, renal agents, vasoconstrictor agents. Chemical name: Vasopressin, 8-L-lysine- (12 Dec 1998) |

| fructosyl lysine oxidase | <enzyme> Isolated from fusarium oxysporum; mw 50 kD; catalyses the h2o2-producing deglycating oxidation of n(alpha/epsilon)-fructosyl-n(alpha/epsilon) )-z-lysine Registry number: EC 1.4.3.- (26 Jun 1999) |
| L-lysine oxidase | <enzyme> Converts l-lysine to 2-oxo-6-aminohexanoate Registry number: EC 1.4.3.14 Synonym: l-lysine-alpha oxidase (26 Jun 1999) |
| lysine | <amino acid> The only carrier of a side chain primary amino group in proteins. Has important structural and chemical roles in proteins. (18 Nov 1997) |
| lysine carboxypeptidase | <enzyme> A serine carboxypeptidase that removes c-terminal amino acids, preferentially lysine, from peptides and proteins. It inactivates bradykinin by this action. Registry number: EC 3.4.17.3 (12 Dec 1998) |
