mutase
mu·tase M0501150 (myo͞o′tās, -tāz)n. An enzyme that catalyzes the shifting of a chemical group from one position to another within the same molecule. [Latin mūtāre, to change, move; see mutate + -ase.]mutase (ˈmʌteɪz) n (Biochemistry) biochem an enzyme which catalyzes the transfer of a functional group between two positions within the same moleculeMutase
mutase[′myü‚tās] (biochemistry) An enzyme able to catalyze a dismutation or a molecular rearrangement. Mutase an enzyme that catalyzes the transport of certain functional groups from one part of a molecule to another. The conversion of glucose-6-phosphate to glucose-1-phosphate during glycolysis is catalyzed by phosphoglucomutase (phosphotransferase), a mutase that carries out the intramolecular transport of phosphate groups. mutase
mutase [mu´tās] any of a group of enzymes (transferases) that catalyze the intramolecular shifting of a chemical group from one position to another.mu·tase (myū'tās), Any enzyme that catalyzes the apparent migration of groups within one molecule, for example, phosphoglycerate phosphomutase; sometimes the transfer is from one molecule to another, for example, phosphoglucomutase, phosphoglyceromutase (both phosphotransferases).mutase (myo͞o′tās, -tāz)n.
