| ECCO2R | extracorporeal carbon dioxide removal |
| ETCO2 | end-tidal carbon dioxide [concentration] |
| ETPCO2 | end-tidal partial carbon dioxide [concentration] |
| FECO2 | fractional concentration of carbon dioxide in expired gas |
| carbon-sulfur ligases | <enzyme> Enzymes that catalyze the joining of two molecules by the formation of a carbon-sulfur bond. Registry number: EC 6.2 (12 Dec 1998) |
|---|---|
| carbon-sulfur lyases | <enzyme> Enzymes that catalyze the cleavage of a carbon-sulfur bond by means other than hydrolysis or oxidation. Registry number: EC 4.4 (12 Dec 1998) |
| carbon tetrachloride | <chemical> Tetrachloromethane. A solvent for oils, fats, lacquers, varnishes, rubber waxes, and resins, and a starting material in the manufacturing of organic compounds. Poisoning by inhalation, ingestion or skin absorption is possible and may be fatal. Chemical name: Methane, tetrachloro- (12 Dec 1998) |
| quaternary carbon atom | An atom of carbon to which four other carbon atom's are attached. (05 Mar 2000) |
| one-carbon fragment | The formyl group or the methyl group that takes part in transformylation or transmethylation reactions; by means of these reactions, a group containing a single carbon atom is added to a compound being biosynthesised, adding a methyl group (as in thymidine formation), adding a hydroxymethyl group (as in serine biosynthesis), or closing a ring (as in purine formation). (05 Mar 2000) |
| one-carbon group transferases | <enzyme> A subclass of transferases that transfer chemical groups containing a single carbon. These include the methyltransferases, the hydroxymethyl and formyl transferases, the carboxyl and carbamoyl transferases, and the amidinotransferases. Registry number: EC 2.1 (12 Dec 1998) |
| two-carbon fragment | The acetyl group (CH3CO-) that takes part in transacetylation reactions with coenzyme A as carrier; commonly referred to as acetate or acetic acid, from which it is derived. (05 Mar 2000) |
