Enzymes of carbohydrate metabolism in Coprinus cinereus (C. lagopus sensu Lewis). 1978

M O Fawole

This report describes the detection by spectrophotometric assays of all the enzymes involved in the breakdown of glucose to pyruvate via the EMBDEN-MEYERHOF-PARNAS pathway as well as some enzymes of the hexose monophosphate pathway in cell-free extracts of Coprinus cinereus.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D010088 Oxidoreductases The class of all enzymes catalyzing oxidoreduction reactions. The substrate that is oxidized is regarded as a hydrogen donor. The systematic name is based on donor:acceptor oxidoreductase. The recommended name will be dehydrogenase, wherever this is possible; as an alternative, reductase can be used. Oxidase is only used in cases where O2 is the acceptor. (Enzyme Nomenclature, 1992, p9) Dehydrogenases,Oxidases,Oxidoreductase,Reductases,Dehydrogenase,Oxidase,Reductase
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
D011773 Pyruvates Derivatives of PYRUVIC ACID, including its salts and esters.
D002238 Carbohydrate Epimerases Enzymes that catalyze the epimerization of chiral centers within carbohydrates or their derivatives. EC 5.1.3. Carbohydrate Isomerases,Epimerases, Carbohydrate,Isomerases, Carbohydrate
D003302 Coprinus A genus of black-spored basidiomycetous fungi of the family Coprinaceae, order Agaricales; some species are edible.
D005634 Fructose-Bisphosphate Aldolase An enzyme of the lyase class that catalyzes the cleavage of fructose 1,6-biphosphate to form dihydroxyacetone phosphate and glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate. The enzyme also acts on (3S,4R)-ketose 1-phosphates. The yeast and bacterial enzymes are zinc proteins. (Enzyme Nomenclature, 1992) E.C. 4.1.2.13.

D005947 Glucose A primary source of energy for living organisms. It is naturally occurring and is found in fruits and other parts of plants in its free state. It is used therapeutically in fluid and nutrient replacement.

D000363 Agaricales An extensive order of basidiomycetous fungi whose fruiting bodies are commonly called mushrooms. Agaricaceae,Mushrooms,Agaricale,Mushroom
D050260 Carbohydrate Metabolism Cellular processes in biosynthesis (anabolism) and degradation (catabolism) of CARBOHYDRATES. Metabolism, Carbohydrate
