Entry term(s) enzima multifuncional
Scope note: Moléculas que contienen múltiples sitios activos que se utilizan para catalizar más de una reacción enzimática. Las proteínas de esta clase generalmente contienen múltiples sitios activos en una única cadena peptídica y también pueden contener más de una subunidad enzimáticamente activa. Se distinguen de los COMPLEJOS MULTIENZIMÁTICOS en que sus subunidades no son enzimas concretos.

Scope note: Molecules that contain multiple active sites which are used to catalyze more than one enzymatic reaction. Proteins in this class generally contain multiple active sites within a single peptide chain and may also contain more than one enzymatically active subunit. They are distinguished from MULTIENZYME COMPLEXES in that their subunits are not found as distinct enzymes.
