UI	MeSH Term	Description	Entries
D008190	Lyases	A class of enzymes that catalyze the cleavage of C-C, C-O, and C-N, and other bonds by other means than by hydrolysis or oxidation. (Enzyme Nomenclature, 1992) EC 4.	Desmolase,Desmolases,Lyase
D008861	Microsomes	Artifactual vesicles formed from the endoplasmic reticulum when cells are disrupted. They are isolated by differential centrifugation and are composed of three structural features: rough vesicles, smooth vesicles, and ribosomes. Numerous enzyme activities are associated with the microsomal fraction. (Glick, Glossary of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, 1990; from Rieger et al., Glossary of Genetics: Classical and Molecular, 5th ed)	Microsome
D002248	Carbon Monoxide	Carbon monoxide (CO). A poisonous colorless, odorless, tasteless gas. It combines with hemoglobin to form carboxyhemoglobin, which has no oxygen carrying capacity. The resultant oxygen deprivation causes headache, dizziness, decreased pulse and respiratory rates, unconsciousness, and death. (From Merck Index, 11th ed)	Monoxide, Carbon
D000311	Adrenal Glands	A pair of glands located at the cranial pole of each of the two KIDNEYS. Each adrenal gland is composed of two distinct endocrine tissues with separate embryonic origins, the ADRENAL CORTEX producing STEROIDS and the ADRENAL MEDULLA producing NEUROTRANSMITTERS.	Adrenal Gland,Gland, Adrenal,Glands, Adrenal
D000818	Animals	Unicellular or multicellular, heterotrophic organisms, that have sensation and the power of voluntary movement. Under the older five kingdom paradigm, Animalia was one of the kingdoms. Under the modern three domain model, Animalia represents one of the many groups in the domain EUKARYOTA.

D013250	Steroid Hydroxylases	Cytochrome P-450 monooxygenases (MIXED FUNCTION OXYGENASES) that are important in steroid biosynthesis and metabolism.	Steroid Hydroxylase,Steroid Monooxygenases,Hydroxylase, Steroid,Hydroxylases, Steroid,Monooxygenases, Steroid
D013254	Steroid 17-alpha-Hydroxylase	A microsomal cytochrome P450 enzyme that catalyzes the 17-alpha-hydroxylation of progesterone or pregnenolone and subsequent cleavage of the residual two carbons at C17 in the presence of molecular oxygen and NADPH-FERRIHEMOPROTEIN REDUCTASE. This enzyme, encoded by CYP17 gene, generates precursors for glucocorticoid, androgen, and estrogen synthesis. Defects in CYP17 gene cause congenital adrenal hyperplasia (ADRENAL HYPERPLASIA, CONGENITAL) and abnormal sexual differentiation.	17 alpha-Hydroxylase,17,20-Lyase,CYP17,Cytochrome P-450(17 alpha),P450(c17),Steroid 17 alpha-Monooxygenase,Steroid 17-Hydroxylase,Steroid 17-Monooxygenase,17 alpha-Hydroxylase Cytochrome P-450,17 alpha-Hydroxyprogesterone Aldolase,17,20-Desmolase,Cytochrome P-450(17-alpha),Cytochrome P450(17 alpha),Hydroxyprogesterone Aldolase,Steroid 17 alpha-Hydroxylase,Steroid-17-Hydroxylase,17 alpha Hydroxylase,17 alpha Hydroxylase Cytochrome P 450,17 alpha Hydroxyprogesterone Aldolase,17 alpha-Hydroxylase, Steroid,17 alpha-Monooxygenase, Steroid,17,20 Desmolase,17,20 Lyase,17-Hydroxylase, Steroid,17-Monooxygenase, Steroid,17-alpha-Hydroxylase, Steroid,Aldolase, 17 alpha-Hydroxyprogesterone,Aldolase, Hydroxyprogesterone,Steroid 17 Hydroxylase,Steroid 17 Monooxygenase,Steroid 17 alpha Hydroxylase,Steroid 17 alpha Monooxygenase,alpha-Hydroxyprogesterone Aldolase, 17,alpha-Monooxygenase, Steroid 17
D013255	Steroid 21-Hydroxylase	An adrenal microsomal cytochrome P450 enzyme that catalyzes the 21-hydroxylation of steroids in the presence of molecular oxygen and NADPH-FERRIHEMOPROTEIN REDUCTASE. This enzyme, encoded by CYP21 gene, converts progesterones to precursors of adrenal steroid hormones (CORTICOSTERONE; HYDROCORTISONE). Defects in CYP21 cause congenital adrenal hyperplasia (ADRENAL HYPERPLASIA, CONGENITAL).

D013552	Swine	Any of various animals that constitute the family Suidae and comprise stout-bodied, short-legged omnivorous mammals with thick skin, usually covered with coarse bristles, a rather long mobile snout, and small tail. Included are the genera Babyrousa, Phacochoerus (wart hogs), and Sus, the latter containing the domestic pig (see SUS SCROFA).	Phacochoerus,Pigs,Suidae,Warthogs,Wart Hogs,Hog, Wart,Hogs, Wart,Wart Hog
