| extracellular enzyme | <enzyme> An enzyme performing its functions outside a cell; e.g., the various digestive enzyme's. Synonym: exoenzyme, lyoenzyme. (05 Mar 2000) |
|---|---|
| yellow enzyme | Any enzyme that possesses a flavin nucleotide as coenzyme; e.g., xanthine oxidase, succinate dehydrogenase. Synonym: yellow enzyme. (05 Mar 2000) |
| UDP-N-acetylglucosamine-lysosomal-enzyme-N-acetylglucosaminephosphotransferase | <enzyme> Fibroblasts from patients with i-cell (mucolipidosis II) and pseudo-hurler polydystrophy (mucolipidosis III) are deficient in above enzyme; for n-acetylglucosamine transferred to dolichyl phosphate see EC 2.7.8.15 Registry number: EC 2.7.8.17 Synonym: udpgnac gp gnac phosphotransferase, udpgnac phosphotransferase, uridine 5'-diphosphate-n-acetylglucosamine glycoprotein n-acetylglucosaminylphosphotransferase, n-acetylglucosamine-1-phosphotransferase, n-agapt, udp-n-acetylglucosamine-lysosomal glycoprotein n-acetylglucosaminylphosphotransferase, udp-acetylglucosamine-glycoprotein n-acetylglucosamine-1-phosphotransferase (26 Jun 1999) |
| UDP-N-acetylglucosamine:lysosomal enzyme N-acetylglucosaminyl-1-phosphotransferase | <enzyme> An enzyme that participates in the posttranslational modification of a number of lysosomal proteins; a deficiency or defect in this enzyme results in two forms of mucolipidoses, I-cell disease, and pseudo-Hurler polydystrophy. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Kornberg enzyme | DNA polymerase I from Escherichia coli. (05 Mar 2000) |
| 1,4-alpha-glucan branching enzyme | <enzyme> In glycogen or amylopectin synthesis, the enzyme that catalyses the transfer of a segment of a 1,4-alpha-glucan chain to a primary hydroxy group in a similar glucan chain. Chemical name: 1,4-alpha-D-Glucan:1,4-alpha-D-glucan 6-alpha-D-(1,4-alpha-D-glucano)-transferase Registry number: EC 2.4.1.18 (12 Dec 1998) |
| liver enzyme | <biochemistry> Special proteins found in the cells of the liver that are responsible for catalysing specific metabolic reactions. They may become elevated in the bloodstream in conditions of hepatitis or liver cancer. See: liver function tests. (27 Sep 1997) |
| lysosomal enzyme | <biochemistry> A range of degradative enzymes, most of which operate best at acid pH. The best known marker enzymes are acid phosphatase and glucuronidase, but many others are known. (18 Nov 1997) |
| affinity antibody | The measure of the interaction between molecules such as a receptor and its ligand. This interaction is reversible. (05 Mar 2000) |
| agglutinating antibody | 1. An antibody that causes clumping or agglutination of the bacteria or other cells which either stimulated the formation of the agglutinin, or contain immunologically similar, reactive antigen. Synonym: agglutinating antibody, immune agglutinin. 2. A substance, other than a specific agglutinating antibody, that causes organic particles to agglutinate, commonly qualified, e.g., plant agglutinin. (05 Mar 2000) |
| anaphylactic antibody | Antibody that has an affinity for certain kinds of cells, in addition to and unrelated to its specific affinity for the antigen that induced it, because of the properties of the Fc portion of the heavy chain. See: heterocytotropic antibody, homocytotropic antibody, cytotropic antibody test. Synonym: anaphylactic antibody, cytophilic antibody. (05 Mar 2000) |
| anti-basement membrane antibody | Autoantibodies to renal glomerular basement membrane antigens. (05 Mar 2000) |
| antibody | An immunoglobulin molecule that has a specific amino acid sequence by virtue of which it interacts only with the antigen that induced its synthesis in cells of the lymphoid series (especially plasma cells) or with antigen closely related to it. Antibodies are classified according to their ode of action as agglutinins, bacteriolysins, haemolysins, opsonins, precipitins, etc. (18 Nov 1997) |
| antibody affinity | A measure of the binding strength between antibody and a simple hapten or antigen determinant. It depends on the closeness of stereochemical fit between antibody combining sites and antigen determinants, on the size of the area of contact between them, and on the distribution of charged and hydrophobic groups. It includes the concept of "avidity," which refers to the strength of the antigen-antibody bond after formation of reversible complexes. (12 Dec 1998) |
| antibody aldolase | <enzyme> Prepared by reactive immuninization to catalyze a wide variety of aldol reactions and decarboxylations Registry number: EC 4.1.2.- Synonym: fab 33f12, aldolase catalytic antibody (26 Jun 1999) |
