| cytidine 5'-diphosphate | <biochemistry> An ester, at the 5' position, between cytidine and diphosphoric acid. It is derived from cytidine 5'-triphosphate and is important in phosphatide biosynthesis. Acronym: CDP (21 Jun 2000) |

| cytidine diphosphate | <chemical> Cytidine 5'-(trihydrogen diphosphate). A cytosine nucleotide containing two phosphate groups esterified to the sugar moiety. Synonym: crpp; cytidine pyrophosphate. Chemical name: Cytidine 5'-(trihydrogen diphosphate) (12 Dec 1998) |
| cytidine diphosphate choline | <chemical> Donor of choline in biosynthesis of choline-containing phosphoglycerides. Pharmacological action: nootropic agents. Chemical name: Cytidine 5'-(trihydrogen diphosphate), P'-(2-(trimethylammonio)ethyl) ester, inner salt (12 Dec 1998) |
| cytidine diphosphate diglycerides | The ester of diacylglycerol with the terminal phosphate of cytidine diphosphate. It serves as an intermediate in the biosynthesis of phosphatidylethanolamine and phosphatidylserine in bacteria. (12 Dec 1998) |
| nucleoside diphosphate | The pyrophosphoric ester of a nucleoside, i.e., a nucleoside in which the H of one of the ribose hydroxyls (usually the 5') is replaced by a pyrophosphoric (diphosphoric) radical; e.g., adenosine 5'-diphosphate. Compare: nucleoside bisphosphate. (05 Mar 2000) |
| nucleoside-diphosphate kinase | <enzyme> A phosphotransferase enzyme that is found in mitochondria and in the soluble cytoplasm of cells. It catalyses reversible reactions of a nucleoside triphosphate, e.g., ATP, with a nucleoside diphosphate, e.g., UDP, to form ADP and UTP. Many nucleoside diphosphates can act as acceptor, while many ribonucleoside triphosphates and deoxyribonucleoside triphosphates can act as a donor. Chemical name: ATP:nucleoside-diphosphate phosphotransferase Registry number: EC 2.7.4.6 (12 Dec 1998) |
| nucleoside-diphosphate sugars | Nucleoside diphosphates linked through the 5'-diphosphoric group with simple or complex carbohydrates; e.g., GDP-mannose, UDP-glucose (UDPG), dTDP-glucosamine. (05 Mar 2000) |
| dehydrodolichyl diphosphate synthetase | <enzyme> Membrane-associated prenyl transferase from rat seminiferous tubules; dependent on t,t-farnesyl diphosphate, isopentenyldiphosphate and divalent cation; also from yeast saccharomyces carlsbergensis; looses its activity in the presence of 0.1% triton x-100 Registry number: EC 2.5.1.- Synonym: long chain polyprenyl diphosphate synthetase, dddp synthetase, dehydrodolichyl diphosphate synthase (26 Jun 1999) |
| deoxynucleoside diphosphate-oligonucleotide deoxynucleotidyl transferase | <chemical> Activated by mg++ Synonym: dndp-deoxynucleotidyl transferase, ddodt (26 Jun 1999) |
| dimethylallyl diphosphate-umbelliferone 6-dimethyltransferase | <enzyme> Catalyses the 6-prenylation of umbelliferone, forming demethylsuberosin Registry number: EC 2.5.1.- Synonym: ddud-transferase (26 Jun 1999) |

| diphosphate | <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) |
| dolichol phosphate glucose-dolichol diphosphate oligosaccharide glucosyltransferase | <enzyme> Can also use dolichol-p-galactose as donor Registry number: EC 2.4.1.- Synonym: dolichol-p-glucose-dolichol-p-p-oligosaccharide glucosyltransferase, dolichol-pp-oligosaccharide glucosyltransferase (ii), dolichol-p-p-oligosaccharide glucosyltransferase (i), dol-p-p-oligosaccharide glycosyltransferase, dppo-glucosyltransferase, dolichyl-p-glucose-man(9)(glcnac)2-pp-dolichol glucosyltransferase (26 Jun 1999) |
