UI	MeSH Term	Description	Entries
D008780	Methyltransferases	A subclass of enzymes of the transferase class that catalyze the transfer of a methyl group from one compound to another. (Dorland, 28th ed) EC 2.1.1.	Methyltransferase
D008862	Microsomes, Liver	Closed vesicles of fragmented endoplasmic reticulum created when liver cells or tissue are disrupted by homogenization. They may be smooth or rough.	Liver Microsomes,Liver Microsome,Microsome, Liver
D009713	Nucleotidyltransferases	A class of enzymes that transfers nucleotidyl residues. EC 2.7.7.	Nucleotidyltransferase
D010714	Phosphatidylethanolamines	Derivatives of phosphatidic acids in which the phosphoric acid is bound in ester linkage to an ethanolamine moiety. Complete hydrolysis yields 1 mole of glycerol, phosphoric acid and ethanolamine and 2 moles of fatty acids.	Cephalin,Cephalins,Ethanolamine Phosphoglyceride,Ethanolamine Phosphoglycerides,Ethanolamineglycerophospholipids,Phosphoglyceride, Ethanolamine,Phosphoglycerides, Ethanolamine
D010743	Phospholipids	Lipids containing one or more phosphate groups, particularly those derived from either glycerol (phosphoglycerides see GLYCEROPHOSPHOLIPIDS) or sphingosine (SPHINGOLIPIDS). They are polar lipids that are of great importance for the structure and function of cell membranes and are the most abundant of membrane lipids, although not stored in large amounts in the system.	Phosphatides,Phospholipid
D010770	Phosphotransferases	A rather large group of enzymes comprising not only those transferring phosphate but also diphosphate, nucleotidyl residues, and others. These have also been subdivided according to the acceptor group. (From Enzyme Nomenclature, 1992) EC 2.7.	Kinases,Phosphotransferase,Phosphotransferases, ATP,Transphosphorylase,Transphosphorylases,Kinase,ATP Phosphotransferases
D002798	Diacylglycerol Cholinephosphotransferase	An enzyme that catalyzes the synthesis of phosphatidylcholines from CDPcholine and 1,2-diacylglycerols. EC 2.7.8.2.	Cholinephosphotransferase,Phosphorylcholine-Glyceride Transferase,1-alkyl-2-Acetylglycerol Cholinephosphotransferase,CDP-Choline 1,2-Diglyceride Choline Phosphotransferase,CDP-Choline Cholinephosphotransferase,CDP-Diacylglycerol Synthase,Diacylglycerol-CDP Choline Phosphotransferase,PAF Phosphocholinetransferase,Phosphocholinetransferase,Phosphorylcholineglyceride Transferase,CDP Choline 1,2 Diglyceride Choline Phosphotransferase,CDP Choline Cholinephosphotransferase,CDP Diacylglycerol Synthase,Choline Phosphotransferase, Diacylglycerol-CDP,Cholinephosphotransferase, 1-alkyl-2-Acetylglycerol,Cholinephosphotransferase, CDP-Choline,Cholinephosphotransferase, Diacylglycerol,Diacylglycerol CDP Choline Phosphotransferase,Phosphocholinetransferase, PAF,Phosphorylcholine Glyceride Transferase,Phosphotransferase, Diacylglycerol-CDP Choline,Synthase, CDP-Diacylglycerol,Transferase, Phosphorylcholine-Glyceride,Transferase, Phosphorylcholineglyceride
