Prochlorococcus
|
D048929 |
[A genus of marine planktonic CYANOBACTERIA in the order PROCHLOROPHYTES. They lack PHYCOBILISOMES and contain divinyl CHLOROPHYLL, a and b.
] |
|
Prochloron
|
D019691 |
[A genus of PROCHLOROPHYTES containing unicellular, spherical bacteria without a mucilaginous sheath. They are found almost exclusively as extracellular symbionts of colonial ASCIDIANS on subtropical or tropical marine shores.

|
Prochlorophytes
|
D048928 |
[An order of GRAM-NEGATIVE OXYGENIC PHOTOSYNTHETIC BACTERIA containing CHLOROPHYLL, a and b, but lacking PHYCOBILISOMES (light-harvesting antennae). There are three genera: PROCHLORON; PROCHLOROCOCCUS; and PROCHLOROTHRIX. This order was thought to be the missing link between CYANOBACTERIA and plant CHLOROPLASTS, hence the name.

Prochlorothrix
|
D019692 |
[A genus of PROCHLOROPHYTES occurring in unbranched chains of indefinite length and containing both chlorophylls a and b.

|
Prochlorperazine
|
D011346 |
[A phenothiazine antipsychotic used principally in the treatment of NAUSEA; VOMITING; and VERTIGO. It is more likely than CHLORPROMAZINE to cause EXTRAPYRAMIDAL DISORDERS. (From Martindale, The Extra Pharmacopoeia, 30th ed, p612)

Procollagen
|
D011347 |
[A precursor of procollagen consisting of procollagen peptide chains in which proline and lysine have not yet been hydroxylated.
, A biosynthetic precursor of collagen containing additional amino acid sequences at the amino-terminal and carboxyl-terminal ends of the polypeptide chains.
] |
|
Procollagen N-Endopeptidase
|
D011348 |
[An extracellular endopeptidase which excises a block of peptides at the amino terminal, nonhelical region of the procollagen molecule with the formation of collagen. Absence or deficiency of the enzyme causes accumulation of procollagen which results in the inherited connective tissue disorder--dermatosparaxis. EC 3.4.24.14.

|
Procollagen-Lysine, 2-Oxoglutarate 5-Dioxygenase
|
D008240 |
[A mixed-function oxygenase that catalyzes the hydroxylation of peptidyllysine, usually in protocollagen, to peptidylhydroxylysine. The enzyme utilizes molecular oxygen with concomitant oxidative decarboxylation of the cosubstrate 2-oxoglutarate to succinate. EC 1.14.11.4.
] |
|
Procollagen-Proline Dioxygenase
|
D011393 |
[A mixed-function oxygenase that catalyzes the hydroxylation of a prolyl-glycyl containing peptide, usually in PROTOCOLLAGEN, to a hydroxyprolylglycyl-containing-peptide. The enzyme utilizes molecular OXYGEN with a concomitant oxidative decarboxylation of 2-oxoglutarate to SUCCINATE. The enzyme occurs as a tetramer of two alpha and two beta subunits. The beta subunit of procollagen-proline dioxygenase is identical to the enzyme PROTEIN DISULFIDE-ISOMERASES.

Procrastination
|
D000075682 |
[The deferment of actions or tasks to a later time, or to infinity.

|
Proctectomy
|
D000078542 |
[Surgical resection of the RECTUM.
] |
|
Proctitis
|
D011349 |
[INFLAMMATION of the MUCOUS MEMBRANE of the RECTUM, the distal end of the large intestine (INTESTINE, LARGE).
] |
|
Proctocolectomy, Restorative
|
D016737 |
[A surgical procedure involving the excision of the COLON and RECTUM and the formation of an ILEOANAL RESERVOIR (pouch). In patients with intestinal diseases, such as ulcerative colitis, this procedure avoids the need for an OSTOMY by allowing for transanal defecation.
] |
|
Proctocolitis
|
D011350 |
[Inflammation of the RECTUM and the distal portion of the COLON.
] |
|
Proctoscopes
|
D020700 |
[Endoscopes for visual examination of the rectum and anus.
] |
|
Proctoscopy
|
D011351 |
[Endoscopic examination, therapy or surgery of the rectum.

|
Procyclidine
|
D011352 |
[A muscarinic antagonist that crosses the blood-brain barrier and is used in the treatment of drug-induced extrapyramidal disorders and in parkinsonism.
] |
|
Procyonidae
|
D045988 |
[A family of long-tailed terrestrial omnivores that includes RACCOONS, ringtails, and coatimundis.

Prodigiosin
|
D011353 |
[4-Methoxy-5-((5-methyl-4-pentyl-2H-pyrrol-2-ylidene)methyl)- 2,2'-bi-1H-pyrrole. A toxic, bright red tripyrrole pigment from Serratia marcescens and others. It has antibacterial, anticoccidial, antimalarial, and antifungal activities, but is used mainly as a biochemical tool.

|
Prodigiozan
|
D011354 |
[A polysaccharide extracted from Serratia marcescens and other bacteria. It activates enzymatic activity of macrophages and stimulates phagocytic processes.
