UI	MeSH Term	Description	Entries
D001731	Bisphosphoglycerate Mutase	An enzyme that catalyzes the transfer of phosphate from C-3 of 1,3-diphosphoglycerate to C-2 of 3-phosphoglycerate, forming 2,3-diphosphoglycerate. EC 5.4.2.4.

D005994	Glycerophosphates	Any salt or ester of glycerophosphoric acid.	Glycerolphosphate,Glycerophosphate,Calcium Glycerophosphate,Glycerolphosphates,Glycerophosphate, Calcium
D019751	Intramolecular Transferases	Enzymes of the isomerase class that catalyze the transfer of acyl-, phospho-, amino- or other groups from one position within a molecule to another. EC 5.4.	Mutases,Transferases, Intramolecular
D019794	2,3-Diphosphoglycerate	A highly anionic organic phosphate which is present in human red blood cells at about the same molar ratio as hemoglobin. It binds to deoxyhemoglobin but not the oxygenated form, therefore diminishing the oxygen affinity of hemoglobin. This is essential in enabling hemoglobin to unload oxygen in tissue capillaries. It is also an intermediate in the conversion of 3-phosphoglycerate to 2-phosphoglycerate by phosphoglycerate mutase (EC 5.4.2.1).
