CYP2A6
Cytochrome P450 2A6 (abbreviated CYP2A6) is a member of the cytochrome P450 mixed-function oxidase system which is involved in the metabolism of xenobiotics in the body. CYP2A6 is the primary […]
Plasminogen activator
A plasminogen activator is a serine protease which converts plasminogen to plasmin thus promoting fibrinolysis.Types include: Tissue plasminogen activator UrokinaseIt is inhibited by plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 and plasminogen activator inhibitor-2.
DNA mismatch repair
DNA mismatch repair is a system for recognizing and repairing erroneous insertion deletion and mis-incorporation of bases that can arise during DNA replication and recombination as well as repairing some […]
Chloramphenicol acetyltransferase
Chloramphenicol acetyltransferase (or CAT) is a bacterial enzyme (EC 2.3.1.28) that detoxifies the antibiotic chloramphenicol and is responsible for chloramphenicol resistance in bacteria. This enzyme covalently attaches an acetyl group […]
