synthetase
syn·the·tase S0971250 (sĭn′thĭ-tās′, -tāz′)n. Any of a group of enzymes that catalyze the synthesis of a compound. Also called synthase.
[synthet(ic) + -ase.]synthetase (ˈsɪnθəˌteɪz) n (Biochemistry) biochem an enzyme that can catalyse the union of two large molecules. Also called: ligase syn•the•tase (ˈsɪn θəˌteɪs, -ˌteɪz)
n. 1. ligase. 2. Also called tRNA synthetase. a ligase that assists in translating the genetic code into protein by linking a transfer RNA with a specific amino acid. [1947; synthet (ic) + -ase] TranslationsSynthetase
synthetase[′sin·thə‚tās] (biochemistry) ligase Synthetase the common name for an enzyme of the class of ligases. As opposed to synthases, synthetases effect condensation reactions, which are accompanied by the decomposition of energy-rich bonds in nucleoside triphosphates, including ATP. synthetase
synthetase [sin´thĕ-tās] ligase; any of a class of enzymes that catalyze the joining together of two molecules coupled with the breakdown of a pyrophosphate bond in ATP or a similar triphosphate.syn·the·tase (sin'thĕ-tās), An enzyme catalyzing the synthesis of a specific substance. Synthetase is limited, in the Enzyme Commission Report, to use as a trivial name for the ligases (EC class 6), which in turn are those synthesizing enzymes that require the cleavage of a pyrophosphate linkage in ATP or a similar compound. Reversal of lyase (EC class 4) reactions, producing a synthesis, is indicated (in trivial names) by synthase; such reactions do not involve pyrophosphate cleavage. For individual synthetases, see the specific names.synthetase (sĭn′thĭ-tās′, -tāz′)n. Any of a group of enzymes that catalyze the synthesis of a compound. Also called synthase.syn·the·tase (sin'thĕ-tās) An enzyme catalyzing the synthesis of a specific substance. |
