| carbon-nitrogen ligases with glutamine as amide-n-donor | <enzyme> Enzymes that catalyze the joining of glutamine-derived ammonia and another molecule. The linkage is in the form of a carbon-nitrogen bond. Registry number: EC 6.3.5 (12 Dec 1998) |
|---|---|
| carbon-nitrogen lyases | <enzyme> Enzymes that catalyze the cleavage of a carbon-nitrogen bond by means other than hydrolysis or oxidation. Subclasses are the ammonia-lyases, the amidine-lyases, the amine-lyases, and other carbon-nitrogen lyases. Registry number: EC 4.3 (12 Dec 1998) |
| carbon-oxygen ligases | <enzyme> Enzymes that catalyze the joining of two molecules by the formation of a carbon-oxygen bond. Registry number: EC 6.1 (12 Dec 1998) |
| carbon-oxygen lyases | <enzyme> Enzymes that catalyze the cleavage of a carbon-oxygen bond by means other than hydrolysis or oxidation. Registry number: EC 4.2 (12 Dec 1998) |
| carbon-phosphorus lyase | <enzyme> Found in bacteria which utilise alkyl and phenylphosphonic acids Registry number: EC 4.99.- Synonym: c-p lyase, carbon-phosphorus cleavage enzyme (26 Jun 1999) |
| carbon radioisotopes | Unstable isotopes of carbon that decay or disintegrate emitting radiation. C atoms with atomic weights 10, 11, and 14-16 are radioactive carbon isotopes. (12 Dec 1998) |
| carbon source | Any carbon-containing organic molecule (carbohydrate, aminoacid) that an organism can use to produce energy in the form of ATP. (09 Oct 1997) |

| 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) |
