| slant culture | A culture made on the slanting surface of a medium which has been solidified in a test tube inclined from the perpendicular so as to give a greater area than that of the lumen of the tube. Synonym: slope culture. (05 Mar 2000) |

| tibio-talar slant | <radiology> Juvenile rheumatoid arthritis, sickle-cell disease, haemophilia (12 Dec 1998) |
| phenylalanine | <amino acid> One of the amino acids which the body cannot manufacture itself, but must acquire from food. It is abundant in meats and cheese. Phenylalanine is a precursor of tyrosine and together they lead to the formation of thyroxine or thyroid hormone and of adrenaline and noradrenaline which is converted into a neurotransmitter, a brain chemical which transmits nerve impulses. This neurotransmitter is used by the brain to manufacture noradrenaline which promotes mental alertness, memory, elevates mood and suppresses the appetite very effectively. Along with another amino acid, tryptophan, phenylalanine governs the release of an intestinal hormone called cholecystokinin. Overuse of phenylalanine supplements can cause anxiety, headaches and hypertension and are contraindicated for pregnant woman, those who suffer from anxiety attacks, high blood pressure, PKU, pigmented melanoma or anyone taking an anti-depressant containing monoamine oxidase inhibitors. (15 Oct 1997) |
| phenylalanine 4-hydroxylase | <enzyme> An enzyme that catalyses the oxidation of l-phenylalanine to l-tyrosine with O2 and tetrahydrobiopterin (the latter forming the dihydro derivative) which is reduced by NADPH and a reductase to the active form; a deficiency of either of these enzymes will result in phenylketonuria. Synonym: phenylalanine 4-hydroxylase. (05 Mar 2000) |
| phenylalanine 4-monooxygenase | <enzyme> An enzyme that catalyses the oxidation of l-phenylalanine to l-tyrosine with O2 and tetrahydrobiopterin (the latter forming the dihydro derivative) which is reduced by NADPH and a reductase to the active form; a deficiency of either of these enzymes will result in phenylketonuria. Synonym: phenylalanine 4-hydroxylase. (05 Mar 2000) |
| phenylalanine aminopeptidase | <enzyme> Metalloenzyme from legionella pneumophila; mw: 35,000; pH optimum 8-9.5 Registry number: EC 3.4.11.- (26 Jun 1999) |
| phenylalanine ammonia lyase | <enzyme> An enzyme that catalyses the deamination of l-phenylalanine to form trans-cinnamate and ammonia. It may also act on l-tyrosine. Since the enzyme deprives neoplastic tissue of phenylalanine, it has been used experimentally in the treatment of acute lymphoblastic leukaemia. The enzyme is obtained from many plants and is used as an enzymic marker for lignification and other developmental processes in plant cells. Pharmacological action: antineoplastic agent. Chemical name: L-Phenylalanine ammonia-lyase Registry number: EC 4.3.1.5 (12 Dec 1998) |
| phenylalanine hydroxylase | <enzyme> An enzyme of the oxidoreductase class that catalyses the reaction l-phenylalanine, tetrahydrobiopterin, and oxygen to yield l-tyrosine, dihydrobiopterin, and water, the reaction synthesizing tyrosine from phenylalanine. Chemical name: L-Phenylalanine,tetrahydrobiopterin:oxygen oxidoreductase (4-hydroxylating) Registry number: EC 1.14.16.1 (12 Dec 1998) |
| phenylalanine hydroxylase phosphatase | <enzyme> Catalyses dephosphorylation of phosphorylated phenylalanine hydroxylase Registry number: EC 3.1.3.- Synonym: phe hydroxylase phosphatase (26 Jun 1999) |
| phenylalanine oxidase | <enzyme> Forms phenylpyruvate in the presence of air; consider also phenylalanine dehydrogenase (nad) which requires nad Registry number: EC 1.4.3.- Synonym: phenylalanine desaminase, l-phenylalanine oxidase, phenylalanine dehydrogenase (26 Jun 1999) |
| phenylalanine-trna ligase | <enzyme> An enzyme that activates phenylalanine with its specific transfer RNA. Chemical name: Phenylalanine:tRNA(Phe) ligase (AMP-forming) Registry number: EC 6.1.1.20 (12 Dec 1998) |
| n-formylmethionine leucyl-phenylalanine | <chemical> N-formylmethionyl-leucyl-phenylalanine. A formylated tripeptide originally isolated from bacterial filtrates that is positively chemotactic to polymorphonuclear leucocytes, and causes them to release lysosomal enzymes and become metabolically activated. Chemical name: L-Phenylalanine, N-(N-(N-formyl-L-methionyl)-L-leucyl)- (12 Dec 1998) |
| N-formylmethionyl-leucyl-phenylalanine carboxypeptidase | <enzyme> Human salivary enzyme liberates phenylalanine from the chemotactic peptide n-formylmethionine leucyl-phenylalanine Registry number: EC 3.4.- Synonym: n-formyl-methionine leucyl-phenylalanyl carboxypeptidase, formylmet-leu-phe carboxypeptidase (26 Jun 1999) |
| adenine deaminase | <enzyme> An enzyme that catalyses the hydrolysis of adenine to ammonia and hypoxanthine. A part of purine degradation. (05 Mar 2000) |
| adenosine deaminase | <enzyme> An enzyme that catalyses the hydrolysis of adenosine to inosine with the elimination of ammonia. Since there are wide tissue and species variations in the enzyme, it has been used as a tool in the study of human and animal genetics and in medical diagnosis. Chemical name: Adenosine aminohydrolase Registry number: EC 3.5.4.4 (12 Dec 1998) |
