UI	MeSH Term	Description	Entries
D007168	IMP Dehydrogenase	An enzyme that catalyzes the dehydrogenation of inosine 5'-phosphate to xanthosine 5'-phosphate in the presence of NAD. EC 1.1.1.205.	Inosinic Acid Dehydrogenase,Inosine-5-Monophosphate Dehydrogenase,Acid Dehydrogenase, Inosinic,Dehydrogenase, IMP,Dehydrogenase, Inosine-5-Monophosphate,Dehydrogenase, Inosinic Acid,Inosine 5 Monophosphate Dehydrogenase
D007291	Inosine Monophosphate	Inosine 5'-Monophosphate. A purine nucleotide which has hypoxanthine as the base and one phosphate group esterified to the sugar moiety.	IMP,Inosinic Acid,Ribosylhypoxanthine Monophosphate,Inosinic Acids,Sodium Inosinate,Acid, Inosinic,Acids, Inosinic,Inosinate, Sodium,Monophosphate, Inosine,Monophosphate, Ribosylhypoxanthine
D007938	Leukemia	A progressive, malignant disease of the blood-forming organs, characterized by distorted proliferation and development of leukocytes and their precursors in the blood and bone marrow. Leukemias were originally termed acute or chronic based on life expectancy but now are classified according to cellular maturity. Acute leukemias consist of predominately immature cells; chronic leukemias are composed of more mature cells.

D009369	Neoplasms	New abnormal growth of tissue. Malignant neoplasms show a greater degree of anaplasia and have the properties of invasion and metastasis, compared to benign neoplasms.

D011687	Purines	A series of heterocyclic compounds that are variously substituted in nature and are known also as purine bases. They include ADENINE and GUANINE, constituents of nucleic acids, as well as many alkaloids such as CAFFEINE and THEOPHYLLINE. Uric acid is the metabolic end product of purine metabolism.
