procollagen-lysine, 2-oxoglutarate 5-dioxygenase |
<enzyme> A mixed-function oxygenase that catalyses the hydroxylation of peptidyllysine, usually in protocollagen, to peptidylhydroxylysine. The enzyme utilises molecular oxygen with concomitant oxidative decarboxylation of the cosubstrate 2-oxoglutarate to succinate. Chemical name: Procollagen-L-lysine,2-oxoglutarate:oxygen oxidoreductase (5-hydroxylating) Registry number: EC 1.14.11.4 (12 Dec 1998) |

procollagen-proline dioxygenase |
<enzyme> A mixed-function oxygenase that catalyses the hydroxylation of a prolyl-glycyl-containing-peptide, usually in protocollagen, to a hydroxyprolylglycyl-containing-peptide. The enzyme utilises molecular oxygen with a concomitant oxidative decarboxylation of 2-oxoglutarate to succinate. Chemical name: Procollagen-L-proline,2-oxoglutarate:oxygen oxidoreductase Registry number: EC 1.14.11.2 (12 Dec 1998) |
procollagenase |
<enzyme> Precursor of EC 3.4.24.3, clostridiopeptidase a Registry number: EC 3.4.24.- (26 Jun 1999) |
proconvertin |
<chemical> Heat- and storage-stable plasma protein that is activated by tissue thromboplastin to form factor viia in the extrinsic pathway of blood coagulation. The activated form then catalyses the activation of factor x to factor xa. Chemical name: Blood-coagulation factor VII (12 Dec 1998) |
