Identifier Name Description
GO:0003824 catalytic activity Catalysis of a biochemical reaction at physiological temperatures. In biologically catalyzed reactions, the reactants are known as substrates, and the catalysts are naturally occurring macromolecular substances known as enzymes. Enzymes possess specific binding sites for substrates, and are usually composed wholly or largely of protein, but RNA that has catalytic activity (ribozyme) is often also regarded as enzymatic.
GO:0008483 transaminase activity Catalysis of the transfer of an amino group to an acceptor, usually a 2-oxo acid.
GO:0016740 transferase activity Catalysis of the transfer of a group, e.g. a methyl group, glycosyl group, acyl group, phosphorus-containing, or other groups, from one compound (generally regarded as the donor) to another compound (generally regarded as the acceptor). Transferase is the systematic name for any enzyme of EC class 2.
GO:0003674 molecular_function Elemental activities, such as catalysis or binding, describing the actions of a gene product at the molecular level. A given gene product may exhibit one or more molecular functions.
GO:0016769 transferase activity, transferring nitrogenous groups Catalysis of the transfer of a nitrogenous group from one compound (donor) to another (acceptor).
GO:0016212 kynurenine-oxoglutarate transaminase activity Catalysis of the reaction: L-kynurenine + 2-oxoglutarate = 4-(2-aminophenyl)-2,4-dioxobutanoate + L-glutamate.
GO:0036137 kynurenine aminotransferase activity Catalysis of the transfer of an amino group from kynurenine to an acceptor, usually a 2-oxo acid.
