plural of synthase

Any enzyme that catalyzes the synthesis of a biological compound. / (dated) Such an enzyme that, more specifically, does not use ATP as a source of energy.

plural of vetispiradiene synthase

(biochemistry) An enzyme found in plants and bacteria, but not in animals, which catalyses the final step in the biosynthesis of tryptophan.

(biochemistry) A ligase enzyme involved in purine metabolism.

(biochemistry) A lyase enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction trans,trans-farnesyl diphosphate ⇌ vetispiradiene + diphosphate.

(biochemistry) An enzyme, involved in riboflavin biosynthesis, that catalyzes the chemical reaction 1-deoxy-L-glycero-tetrulose 4-phosphate + 5-amino-6-(D-ribitylamino)uracil ⇌ 6,7-dimethyl-8-(D-ribityl)lumazine + 2 H₂O + phosphate.
