| amyl nitrite | <chemical> A vasodilator that is administered by inhalation. It is also used recreationally due to its supposed ability to induce euphoria and act as an aphrodisiac. Pharmacological action: aphrodisiacs, vasodilator agents. (12 Dec 1998) |
|---|---|
| sodium nitrite | <chemical> Nitrous acid sodium salt. Used in many industrial processes, in meat curing, colouring, and preserving, and as a reagent in analytical chemistry. It is used therapeutically as an antidote in cyanide poisoning. The compound is toxic and mutagenic and will react in vivo with secondary or tertiary amines thereby producing highly carcinogenic nitrosamines. Pharmacological action: antidotes, food preservatives, indicators and reagents, mutagens. Chemical name: Nitrous acid, sodium salt (12 Dec 1998) |
| nitrite | <chemistry> A salt of nitrous acid. Amyl nitrite, a yellow oily volatile liquid, used in medicine as a depressant and a vaso-dilator. Its inhalation produces an instantaneous flushing of the face. Origin: Cf. F. Nitrite. See Niter. Source: Websters Dictionary (01 Mar 1998) |
| nitrite dehydrogenase | <enzyme> Nitrobacter enzyme oxidises nitrite to nitrate with reduction of o2 to water by intermolecular oxygen atom transfer; not the same as nitrate reductase Registry number: EC 1.7.3.- (26 Jun 1999) |
| isobutyl nitrite | A liquid present in commercial amyl nitrite, with similar antispasmodic and vasodilator properties. (05 Mar 2000) |
| ferredoxin-nitrite oxidoreductase | <enzyme> Catalyses reduction of nitrite to ammonia with reduced ferredoxin as electron donor Registry number: EC 1.7.7.- (26 Jun 1999) |
| acetoacetyl-CoA reductase | An oxidoreductase catalyzing interconversion of a 3-oxoacyl-CoA and NADPH, and the corresponding d-3-hydroxyacyl-CoA, and NADP+. A step in fatty acid synthesis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| acetohexamide reductase | <enzyme> Catalyses the conversion of acetohexamide to (-)-hydroxyhexamide Registry number: EC 1.1.1.- (26 Jun 1999) |
| acryloyl-CoA reductase | <enzyme> Clostridium kluyveri enzyme; contains fmn, ferredoxin, and flavodoxin; can act as electron donors Registry number: EC 1.3.99.- Synonym: acryloyo-coenzyme a reductase (26 Jun 1999) |
| aflatoxin B1 aldehyde reductase | <enzyme> Catalyses the conversion of the dialdehydic form of aflatoxin b1-dihydrodiol to the dialcohol form Registry number: EC 1.1.1.- Synonym: aflatoxin b1-aldehyde reductase, afb1-ar (26 Jun 1999) |
| aflatoxin B1 reductase | <enzyme> Reduces the cyclopentenone ring of aflatoxin b1 to aflatoxicol; requires NADPH as cofactor Registry number: EC 1.1.1.- (26 Jun 1999) |
| aflatoxin G2a reductase | <enzyme> Has broad substrate specificity in cell-free extracts from aspergillus parasiticus; versicolorin a hemiacetal is reduced to versicolorin c; 17-hydroxy-16,17-dihydrosterigmatocystin is reduced to a 14,17-hydrated derivative; aflatoxin g2a is converted to a 13,16-hydrated derivative of afg2 Registry number: EC 1.1.1.- (26 Jun 1999) |
| aldehyde reductase | <enzyme> An enzyme that catalyses reversibly the oxidation of an aldose to an alditol. It possesses broad specificity for many aldoses. Chemical name: Alditol:NAD(P)+ 1-oxidoreductase Registry number: EC 1.1.1.21 (12 Dec 1998) |
| aldose reductase | A polyol dehydrogenase (NADP+);an oxidoreductase that reversibly converts aldoses to alditols (e.g., glucose to sorbitol) with NADPH as hydrogen donor. An important step in the metabolism of sorbitol and in the formation of diabetic cataracts. See: d-sorbitol-6-phosphate dehydrogenase. (05 Mar 2000) |
| aldose reductase inhibitor | <pharmacology> A class of drugs being studied as a way to prevent eye and nerve damage in people with diabetes. Aldose reductase is an enzyme that is normally present in the eye and in many other parts of the body. It helps change glucose (sugar) into a sugar alcohol called sorbitol. Too much sorbitol trapped in eye and nerve cells can damage these cells, leading to retinopathy and neuropathy. Drugs that prevent or slow (inhibit) the action of aldose reductase are being studied as a way to prevent or delay these complications of diabetes. (09 Oct 1997) |
