Compounds (37)

CompoundDescription
phosphoric acidconcise etchant is 37% H3PO4
hydronium ion
Succinate
Carbon DioxideA colorless, odorless gas that can be formed by the body and is necessary for the respiration cycle of plants and animals.
serum p-componentclose relation to C reactive protein; may be ovosomucoid
NADH
fumaratesCompounds based on fumaric acid.
Adenosine TriphosphateAn adenine nucleotide containing three phosphate groups esterified to the sugar moiety. In addition to its crucial roles in metabolism adenosine triphosphate is a neurotransmitter.
adenosine diphosphateAdenosine 5'-(trihydrogen diphosphate). An adenine nucleotide containing two phosphate groups esterified to the sugar moiety at the 5'-position.
adenosine monophosphateAdenine nucleotide containing one phosphate group esterified to the sugar moiety in the 2'-, 3'-, or 5'-position.
WaterA clear, odorless, tasteless liquid that is essential for most animal and plant life and is an excellent solvent for many substances. The chemical formula is hydrogen oxide (H2O). (McGraw-Hill Dictionary of Scientific and Technical Terms, 4th ed)
guanosine diphosphateA guanine nucleotide containing two phosphate groups esterified to the sugar moiety.
guanosine diphosphate mannoseA nucleoside diphosphate sugar which can be converted to the deoxy sugar GDPfucose, which provides fucose for lipopolysaccharides of bacterial cell walls. Also acts as mannose donor for glycolipid synthesis.
phosphoenolpyruvateA monocarboxylic acid anion derived from selective deprotonation of the carboxy group of phosphoenolpyruvic acid. It is a metabolic intermediate in GLYCOLYSIS; GLUCONEOGENESIS; and other pathways.
Pyruvic AcidAn intermediate compound in the metabolism of carbohydrates, proteins, and fats. In thiamine deficiency, its oxidation is retarded and it accumulates in the tissues, especially in nervous structures. (From Stedman, 26th ed)
erythrose 4-phosphateRN given refers to (R-(R*,R*))-isomer
nadA coenzyme composed of ribosylnicotinamide 5'-diphosphate coupled to adenosine 5'-phosphate by pyrophosphate linkage. It is found widely in nature and is involved in numerous enzymatic reactions in which it serves as an electron carrier by being alternately oxidized (NAD+) and reduced (NADH). (Dorland, 27th ed)
MannoseA hexose or fermentable monosaccharide and isomer of glucose from manna, the ash Fraxinus ornus and related plants. (From Grant & Hackh's Chemical Dictionary, 5th ed & Random House Unabridged Dictionary, 2d ed)
alpha-Ketoglutarate
OxaloacetateAn anionic form of oxaloacetic acid.
3-phosphoglycerate
xylulose-5-phosphate, (d)-isomer
glycerate 1,3-biphosphate
2-phosphoglycerate, (R)-isomer
6-phosphonoglucono-delta-lactone
ubiquinol-10reduced form of coenzyme Q10
ubiquinone q2interacts with iron atom to form acceptor quinone complex; RN given refers to cpd with unspecified isomeric designation
fructose-1,6-diphosphateRN refers to (D)-isomer
dihydroxyacetone phosphateAn important intermediate in lipid biosynthesis and in glycolysis.
Glyceraldehyde 3-PhosphateAn aldotriose which is an important intermediate in glycolysis and in tryptophan biosynthesis.
succinyl-coenzyme a
sedoheptulose 7-phosphate
Coenzyme A
ribulose 5-phosphateRN given refers to cpd without isomeric designation
Acetyl Coenzyme AAcetyl CoA participates in the biosynthesis of fatty acids and sterols, in the oxidation of fatty acids and in the metabolism of many amino acids. It also acts as a biological acetylating agent.
creolinfrom refined coal tar oils
