| 3':5'-GMP | guanosine 3':5'-cyclic phosphate |
| 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) |

| 8-bromo cyclic adenosine monophosphate | <chemical> 8-bromoadenosine cyclic 3',5'-(hydrogen phosphate). A long-acting derivative of cyclic AMP. It is an activator of cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase, but resistant to degradation by cyclic AMP phosphodiesterase. Chemical name: Adenosine, 8-bromo-, cyclic 3',5'-(hydrogen phosphate) (12 Dec 1998) |
| acetoacetyl-CoA synthetase | <enzyme> Catalyses the conversion of acetoacetate and CoA in the presence of ATP to yield AMP, pyrophosphate and acetoacetyl-CoA; the latter is the first intermediate in cholesterogenesis; also acts more slowly on l-3-hydroxybutanoate Registry number: EC 6.2.1.16 Synonym: acetoacetyl-CoA ligase, acetoacetate-CoA ligase, acetoacetyl-coenzyme a synthetase (26 Jun 1999) |
| acetyl-CoA synthetase | A ligase that catalyses the reaction of acetate and CoA and ATP to form AMP, pyrophosphate, and acetyl-CoA. A key step in the activation of acetate. Synonym: acetate thiokinase, acetate-CoA ligase, acetyl-activating enzyme, acetyl-CoA synthetase. (05 Mar 2000) |
| acid cholesterol ester synthetase | <enzyme> Aortal enzyme, does not require exogenous ATP or CoA; reverse reaction of cholesterol esterase Registry number: EC 3.1.1.- Synonym: cholesterol ester synthetase (26 Jun 1999) |
| acyl-CoA synthetase | General term for enzymes that form acyl-CoA, now called ligases, specifically, long-chain fatty acid-CoA ligase. (05 Mar 2000) |
| acyl protein synthetase | <enzyme> Component of the fatty acid reductase complex of luminescent bacteria Registry number: EC 2.3.1.- Synonym: luxe gene product, fatty acyl-protein synthetase (26 Jun 1999) |
| aerobactin synthetase | <enzyme> Condenses 2 molecules of n-epsilon-acetyl-n-epsilon-hydroxylysine with citric acid to form aerobactin Registry number: EC 4.1.3.- (26 Jun 1999) |
