Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase
Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD or G6PDH) (EC 1.1.1.49) is an cytosolic enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction D-glucose 6-phosphate + NADP+ 6-phospho-D-glucono-15-lactone + NADPH + H+This enzyme is in the pentose […]
Growth-hormone-releasing hormone
Growth-hormone-releasing hormone (GHRH) also known as growth-hormone-releasing factor (GRF GHRF) somatoliberin or somatocrinin is a releasing hormone for growth hormone. It is a 44-amino acid peptide hormone produced in the […]
Thyroid peroxidase
Thyroid peroxidase or thyroperoxidase (TPO) is an enzyme expressed mainly in the thyroid that liberates iodine for addition onto tyrosine residues on thyroglobulin for the production of thyroxine (T4) or […]
