UI	MeSH Term	Description	Entries
D008099	Liver	A large lobed glandular organ in the abdomen of vertebrates that is responsible for detoxification, metabolism, synthesis and storage of various substances.	Livers
D008297	Male		Males
D010084	Oxidation-Reduction	A chemical reaction in which an electron is transferred from one molecule to another. The electron-donating molecule is the reducing agent or reductant; the electron-accepting molecule is the oxidizing agent or oxidant. Reducing and oxidizing agents function as conjugate reductant-oxidant pairs or redox pairs (Lehninger, Principles of Biochemistry, 1982, p471).	Redox,Oxidation Reduction
D010171	Palmitoyl Coenzyme A	A fatty acid coenzyme derivative which plays a key role in fatty acid oxidation and biosynthesis.	Palmitoyl CoA,Hexadecanoyl CoA,Palmityl CoA,CoA, Hexadecanoyl,CoA, Palmitoyl,CoA, Palmityl,Coenzyme A, Palmitoyl
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.	Animal,Metazoa,Animalia
D013379	Substrate Specificity	A characteristic feature of enzyme activity in relation to the kind of substrate on which the enzyme or catalytic molecule reacts.	Specificities, Substrate,Specificity, Substrate,Substrate Specificities
D044943	Fatty Acid Desaturases	A family of enzymes that catalyze the stereoselective, regioselective, or chemoselective syn-dehydrogenation reactions. They function by a mechanism that is linked directly to reduction of molecular OXYGEN.	Acyl CoA Desaturase,Enoyl CoA Reductase,Fatty Acid Desaturase,Fatty Acid Desaturating Enzymes,Acyl CoA Desaturases,Enoyl CoA Reductases,Acid Desaturase, Fatty,CoA Desaturase, Acyl,CoA Reductase, Enoyl,Desaturase, Acyl CoA,Desaturase, Fatty Acid,Desaturases, Fatty Acid,Reductase, Enoyl CoA,Reductases, Enoyl CoA
D051381	Rats	The common name for the genus Rattus.	Rattus,Rats, Laboratory,Rats, Norway,Rattus norvegicus,Laboratory Rat,Laboratory Rats,Norway Rat,Norway Rats,Rat,Rat, Laboratory,Rat, Norway,norvegicus, Rattus
