|
alkaline phosphatase |
an enzyme of the hydrolase class that catalyzes the cleavage of orthophosphate form ortho phosphoric monoesters under alkaline conditions |
|
|
alpha-amylase |
an enzyme that catalyzes the endohydrolsis of 1 ,4-a-glycosidic linkages in starch, glycogen, and related polysaccharides and oligosaccharides containing three or more 1, 4-a-linked d-glucose units |
|
|
aminotransferases |
a subclass of enzymes of the transferase class that catalyze the transfer of an amino group from a donor (generally an amino acid) to an acceptor (generally a 2-keto acid). Most of these enzymes are pyridoxal phosphate proteins. Alanine and aspartate aminotransferase are examples that are of significant clinical utility |
|
|
cholinesterase |
an enzyme of the hydrolase class that catalyzes the cleavage of the acyl group from various esters of choline, including acetylcholine, and some related compounds |
|
|
creatine kinase |
a dimeric enzyme that catalyzes the formation of ATP from ADP and creatine phosphate in muscle |
|
|
what are the 4 forms of CK |
CK-MM, CK-MB, CK-BB, mitochondrial CK |
|
|
gamma-glutamyltransferase |
an enzyme that catalyzes reversibly the transfer of a glutamyl group from a glutamyl peptide and an amino acid to a peptide and a glutamyl amino acid |
|
|
Isoenzyme |
a molecular form that originates at the level of the genes that encode the structures of the enzyme proteins in question |
|
|
isoform |
an enzyme molecular form that has posttranslationally modified |
|
|
lactate dehydrogenase |
an enzyme of the oxidoreductase class that catalyzes reversibly the reduction of pyruvate to (L)-lactate, using NADH as an electron donor |
|
|
lipase |
any enzyme that hydrolytically cleaves a fatty acid anion from a triglyceride or phospholipid |
