Transferase

Molecules of phenicols inhibit the elongation step of the bacterial protein synthesis by binding to peptidyl transferase.

Aminoacyl transferase binds Adenosine triphosphate (ATP) to amino acid, PP is released.

Aminoacyl transferase binds AMP-amino acid to tRNA.

Certain mutated plants have been found to have defects in methylation-related enzymes (methyl transferase) which cause the transcription of TEs, thus affecting the phenotype.

Ketone bodies cannot be used by the liver for energy, because the liver lacks the enzyme β-ketoacyl-CoA transferase, also called thiophorase.

Morphine is metabolized primarily into morphine-3-glucuronide (M3G) and morphine-6-glucuronide (M6G) citation via glucuronidation by phase II metabolism enzyme UDP-glucuronosyl transferase-2B7 (UGT2B7).

PRPP transferase catalyzes both the ribosylation and decarboxylation reactions, forming UMP from orotic acid in the presence of PRPP.

Quinolinic acid then reacts with phosphoriboxyl pyrophosphate catalyzed by quinolinic acid phosphoribosyl transferase (QPT) to form niacin mononucleotide (NaMN).

Several antioxidant enzymes such as superoxide dismutase, catalase, glutathione peroxidase, glutathione reductase, glutathione S-transferase etc. protect DNA from oxidative stress.

The first step is the reverse of glycine biosynthesis from serine with serine hydroxymethyl transferase.

The rubber precursor is isopentenyl pyrophosphate (an allylic compound), which elongates by Mg 2+ -dependent condensation by the action of rubber transferase.

This has be postulated to be explained by variations of the gene which codes for the enzyme catechol-O-methyl transferase (COMT) which may produce 3 different phenotypes with regards pain sensitivity.

Three molecules of isopentenyl pyrophosphate condense to form farnesyl pyrophosphate through the action of geranyl transferase.
