| 2',3'-cyclic nucleotide 2'-phosphodiesterase | <enzyme> Catalyses the hydrolysis of the 2'-phosphodiesterase bond to yield nucleoside 3'phosphate Registry number: EC 3.1.4.16 Synonym: 2',3'-cyclic nucleotide 2'-phosphohydrolase (26 Jun 1999) |
| 2',3'-cyclic nucleotide 3'-phosphodiesterase | <enzyme> Catalyses the hydrolysis of the 3'-phosphoesterase bond to yield nucleoside 2'-phosphate Registry number: EC 3.1.4.37 Synonym: 2',3'-cyclic nucleotide 3'-phosphohydrolase, 2',3'-cn phosphodiesterase, 2',3'-cnpase (26 Jun 1999) |
| 2',3'-cyclic-nucleotide phosphodiesterases | <enzyme> Nucleoside-2',3'-cyclic phosphate nucleotidohydrolase. Enzymes that catalyze the hydrolysis of the 2'- or 3'- phosphate bonds of 2',3'-cyclic nucleotides. Also hydrolyzes nucleoside monophosphates. Registry number: EC 3.1.4.- (12 Dec 1998) |
| 3',5'-cyclic-nucleotide phosphodiesterase | <enzyme> An enzyme that catalyses the hydrolysis of cyclic AMP to form adenosine 5'-phosphate. The enzyme is widely distributed in animal tissue and controls the level of intracellular cyclic AMP. Also acts on 3',5'-cyclic imp and 3',5'-cyclic GMP. Chemical name: 3',5'-Cyclic-nucleotide 5'-nucleotidohydrolase Registry number: EC 3.1.4.17 (12 Dec 1998) |
| amino sugar | <biochemistry> Monosaccharide in which an OH group is replaced with an amino group, often acetylated. Common examples are D galactosamine, D glucosamine, neuraminic acid, muramic acid. Amino sugars are important constituents of bacterial cell walls, some antibiotics, blood group substances, milk oligosaccharides and chitin. (18 Nov 1997) |
| beechwood sugar | D-xylose. See: xylose. (05 Mar 2000) |
| beet sugar | D-sucrose. See: sucrose. (05 Mar 2000) |
| blood sugar, high | Elevated levels of blood glucose (hyperglycaemia) can be found in a number of conditions. The hyperglycaemia leads to spillage of glucose into the urine, hence the term sweet urine. (Diabetes mellitus means sweet urine. ) (12 Dec 1998) |
| blood sugar, low | The sugar here is glucose. Low blood glucose constitutes hypoglycaemia. Hypoglycaemia is only significant when it is associated with symptoms. It has many causes including drugs, liver disease, surgical absence of the stomach, pre-diabetes, and rare tumours that release excess insulin. (12 Dec 1998) |
| malt sugar | <biochemistry> Disaccharide intermediate of the breakdown of starch, glucose _(1-4) glucose. Fermentable substrate in brewing. (20 Mar 1998) |
