| NAALADase | N-Acetylated alpha-linked acidic dipeptidase |
| RXLI | Recessive X-linked ichthyosis |
| antitumour enzyme | <enzyme> An enzyme that stimulates the degradation of a particular metabolite that cannot be synthesised by tumour cells, inhibits the synthesis of a metabolite needed by tumour cells, or inhibits tumour-specific DNA utilization; e.g., asparaginase. (05 Mar 2000) |
|---|---|
| autolytic enzyme | <enzyme> An enzyme capable of causing lysis of the cell forming it. (05 Mar 2000) |
| beta-carotene cleavage enzyme | <enzyme> An enzyme catalyzing the reaction of beta-carotene plus O2 producing two retinals. Synonym: beta-carotene cleavage enzyme, carotenase, carotinase. (05 Mar 2000) |
| branching enzyme | 1,4-alpha-d-glucan branching enzyme |
| cardiac enzyme | <biochemistry> A group of enzymes found normally in heart tissue. Cardiac enzymes are released into the blood stream in increased concentration when the heart muscle becomes damaged. Examples include SGOT, CPK-MB and LDH. (27 Sep 1997) |
| pancreatic enzyme | <biochemistry> One of the proteins made by the pancreas that aid digestion of fats, carbohydrates and proteins. (09 Oct 1997) |
| malate-condensing enzyme | <enzyme> An important enzyme in the glyoxylic acid cycle which reversibly catalyses the synthesis of l-malate from acetyl-CoA and glyoxylate. Chemical name: L-Malate glyoxylate-lyase (CoA-acetylating) Registry number: EC 4.1.3.2 (12 Dec 1998) |
| malic enzyme | <enzyme> An enzyme that catalyses the conversion of (s)-malate and NAD+ to oxaloacetate and NADH. Chemical name: (S)-Malate:NAD+ oxidoreductase Registry number: EC 1.1.1.37 (12 Dec 1998) |
| pantoate-activating enzyme | pantothenate synthetase |
| marker enzyme | <enzyme> An enzyme that is used to identify a specific cell type, cell organelle, or cell component. (05 Mar 2000) |
| reducing enzyme | <enzyme> An enzyme that catalyses a reduction; since all enzymes catalyze reactions in either direction, any reductase can, under the proper conditions, behave as an oxidase and vice versa, hence the term oxidoreductase. For individual reductase's, see the specific names. Synonym: reducing enzyme. (05 Mar 2000) |
| regulatory enzyme | <biochemistry> An enzyme that regulatescertain functions due to its ability to undergoa change in its catalytic activity through modification of its structure. (09 Oct 1997) |
| relaxing enzyme | <biochemistry> Any of several enzymes, such ashelicase, that unwind DNA prior to its replication. (09 Oct 1997) |
| R enzyme | <enzyme> An enzyme with action similar to that of isoamylase; it cleaves 1,6-alpha-glucosidic linkages in pullalan, amylopectin, and glycogen, and in alpha-and beta-amylase limit-dextrins of amylopectin and glycogen. Compare: isoamylase. Synonym: limit dextrinase, pullulanase, R enzyme. (05 Mar 2000) |
| repair enzyme | <enzyme, molecular biology> An enzyme that can catalyze the repair of damaged DNA; e.g., DNA ligase. (05 Mar 2000) |
