| 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 AMP synthetase | <enzyme> Enzyme responsible for the ATP. (06 May 1997) |
| 3',5'-cyclic-GMP phosphodiesterase | <enzyme> An enzyme that catalyses the hydrolysis of cyclic GMP to yield guanosine-5'-phosphate. Chemical name: 3',5'-Cyclic-GMP 5'-nucleotidohydrolase Registry number: EC 3.1.4.35 (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) |
| 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) |
| acute infectious nonbacterial gastroenteritis | An epidemic, highly communicable but rather mild disease of sudden onset, caused by the epidemic gastroenteritis virus (especially Norwalk agent), with an incubation period of 16 to 48 hours and a duration of 1 to 2 days, which affects all age groups; infection is associated with some fever, abdominal cramps, nausea, vomiting, diarrhoea, and headache, one or another of which may be predominant. Synonym: acute infectious nonbacterial gastroenteritis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| arthritis, infectious | Arthritis caused by bacteria, rickettsiae, mycoplasmas, viruses, fungi, or parasites. Bacterial arthritis is frequently caused by staphylococcus aureus, streptococcus pneumoniae, haemophilus influenzae, and neisseria gonorrhoeae. Viral arthritis is less common than bacterial arthritis and may be a manifestation of such viral diseases as mumps, rubella, hepatitis, etc. (12 Dec 1998) |
| avian infectious encephalomyelitis | <veterinary> A disease of very young chicks caused by a picornavirus and characterised by tremor, ataxia, somnolence, and finally death. Synonym: epidemic tremor. (05 Mar 2000) |
| avian infectious laryngotracheitis virus | <virology> A herpesvirus causing avian infectious laryngotracheitis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| bone diseases, infectious | Bone diseases caused by pathogenic microorganisms. (12 Dec 1998) |
| vaccination, infectious hepatitis | See Vaccination, hepatitis a. (12 Dec 1998) |
| pregnancy complications, infectious | Infections occurring during the course of pregnancy, or pregnancy during the course of an infectious disease. (12 Dec 1998) |
| hepatitis, infectious | See Hepatitis A. (12 Dec 1998) |
| proteinaceous infectious particle | A proposed pathogen composedonly of protein with no detectable nucleic acid and which is responsible for Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease and kuru inhumans and scrapie in sheep. (09 Oct 1997) |
| skin diseases, infectious | Skin diseases caused by bacteria, fungi, parasites, or viruses. (12 Dec 1998) |
