| multienzyme | Referring to several enzymes; e.g., multienzyme complex. (05 Mar 2000) |
| multienzyme complex | Cluster of distinct enzymes catalysing consecutive reactions of a metabolic pathway, that remain physically associated through purification procedures. Multifunctional enzymes, found in eukaryotes, are a somewhat different phenomenon, since the several enzymic activities are associated with different domains of a single polypeptide. (18 Nov 1997) |
| multienzyme complexes | Systems of enzymes which function sequentially by catalyzing consecutive reactions linked by common metabolic intermediates; may involve simply a transfer of water molecules of hydrogen atoms or be associated with large supramolecular structures such as mitochondria or ribosomes. (12 Dec 1998) |
| multienzyme system | A group of related enzymes that operate in a particular metabolic pathway. (09 Oct 1997) |
| multifactorial | Referring to multiple factors. (12 Dec 1998) |

| multifactorial or multigenic disorders | Genetic disorders resulting from the combined action of alleles of more than one gene (e.g., heart disease, diabetes, and some cancers). Although such disorders are inherited, they depend on the simultaneous presence of several alleles, thus the hereditary patterns are usually more complex than those of single- gene disorders. Compare single-gene disorders. (05 Mar 2000) |
