单词 phosphorolysis
释义

phosphorolysis


phosphorolysis

(ˌfɒsfəˈrɒlɪsɪs) n (Chemistry) chem any reaction where chemical bonds are broken down by phosphoric acid or phosphate

Phosphorolysis


phosphorolysis

[‚fäs·fə′räl·ə·səs] (biochemistry) A reaction by which elements of phosphoric acid are incorporated into the molecule of a compound.

Phosphorolysis

 

an enzyme-catalyzed reaction for the cleavage of chemical bonds in certain biologically important compounds. The reaction involves phosphoric acid, and the phosphoryl group (—H2PO3) is incorporated into the reaction products. The enzymes catalyzing the reaction are known as phosphorylases. Phosphorolysis is common in the metabolic processes of animals, plants, and microorganisms.

The bonds that can be broken through phosphorolysis include glycoside (in glycogen), thioether (in the enzyme-substrate complex formed during the oxidation of 3-phosphoglyceraldehyde), carbon-carbon (in xylulose-5-phosphate and pyruvic acid), phosphoester (in nucleic acids), and carbon-nitrogen (in citrulline) bonds. Phosphorolysis is important in the energy balance of organisms because the phosphoryl group introduced into the reaction products is ultimately, under the effect of various enzymes, transferred to adenosine diphosphate to form adenosine triphosphate—the principal energy source of the cell.

phosphorolysis


phosphorolysis

 [fos″fo-rol´ĭ-sis] cleavage of a chemical bond with simultaneous addition of the elements of phosphoric acid to the residues.

phos·pho·rol·y·sis

(fos'fŏ-rol'i-sis), A reaction analogous to hydrolysis except that the elements of phosphoric acid, rather than of water, are added in the course of splitting a bond; for example, the formation of glucose 1-phosphate from glycogen. Synonym(s): phosphoroclastic cleavage

phos·pho·rol·y·sis

(fos-fŏr-ol'i-sis) A reaction analogous to hydrolysis except that the elements of phosphoric acid, rather than of water, are added in the course of splitting a bond.
