Photosynthesis ( / ˌfoʊtəˈsɪnθəsɪs / FOH-tə-SINTH-ə-sis) [1] is a system of biological processes by which photosynthetic organisms, such as most plants, algae, and cyanobacteria, convert light energy, typically from sunlight, into the chemical energy necessary to fuel their activities.
ADP ribosylation factors ( ARFs) are members of the ARF family of GTP-binding proteins of the Ras superfamily. ARF family proteins are ubiquitous in eukaryotic cells, and six highly conserved members of the family have been identified in mammalian cells. Although ARFs are soluble, they generally associate with membranes because of N-terminus ...
View/Edit Mouse. P2Y12 is a chemoreceptor for adenosine diphosphate (ADP) [5] [6] that belongs to the G i class of a group of G protein-coupled (GPCR) purinergic receptors. [7] This P2Y receptor family has several receptor subtypes with different pharmacological selectivity, which overlaps in some cases, for various adenosine and uridine ...
Air displacement plethysmography (ADP, also known as whole-body air displacement plethysmography) is a recognized and scientifically validated densitometric method to measure human body composition. ADP is based on the same principles as the gold standard method of hydrostatic weighing , but through a densitometric technique that uses air ...
PARP1. Poly [ADP-ribose] polymerase 1 ( PARP-1) also known as NAD+ ADP-ribosyltransferase 1 or poly [ADP-ribose] synthase 1 is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the PARP1 gene. [5] It is the most abundant of the PARP family of enzymes, accounting for 90% of the NAD+ used by the family. [6]
In enzymology, an ADP-L-glycero-D-manno-heptose 6-epimerase ( EC 5.1.3.20) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction. Hence, this enzyme has one substrate, ADP-D-glycero-D-manno-heptose, and one product, ADP-L-glycero-D-manno-heptose . This enzyme belongs to the family of isomerases, specifically those racemases and epimerases acting on ...
Cyclic ADP-ribose, frequently abbreviated as cADPR, is a cyclic adenine nucleotide (like cAMP) with two phosphate groups present on 5' OH of the adenosine (like ADP), further connected to another ribose at the 5' position, which, in turn, closes the cycle by glycosidic bonding to the nitrogen 1 (N 1) of the same adenine base (whose position N 9 has the glycosidic bond to the other ribose).
In enzymology, a glucose-1-phosphate adenylyltransferase ( EC 2.7.7.27) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction. Thus, the two substrates of this enzyme are ATP and alpha-D- glucose 1-phosphate, whereas its two products are diphosphate and ADP-glucose . This enzyme belongs to the family of transferases, specifically those transferring ...
