Ferredoxins
|
D005288 |
[Iron-containing proteins that transfer electrons, usually at a low potential, to flavoproteins; the iron is not present as in heme. (McGraw-Hill Dictionary of Scientific and Technical Terms, 5th ed)

Ferrets
|
D005289 |
[Semidomesticated variety of European polecat much used for hunting RODENTS and/or RABBITS and as a laboratory animal. It is in the subfamily Mustelinae, family MUSTELIDAE.

Ferric Compounds
|
D005290 |
[Inorganic or organic compounds containing trivalent iron.

|
Ferric Oxide, Saccharated
|
D000077605 |
[A glucaric acid-iron conjugate that is used in the treatment of IRON-DEFICIENCY ANEMIA, including in patients with chronic kidney disease, when oral iron therapy is ineffective or impractical.

|
Ferrichrome
|
D005291 |
[A cyclic peptide consisting of three residues of delta-N-hydroxy-delta-N-acetylornithine. It acts as an iron transport agent in Ustilago sphaerogena.

Ferricyanides
|
D005292 |
[Inorganic salts of the hypothetical acid, H3Fe(CN)6.
] |
|
Ferritins
|
D005293 |
[Iron-containing proteins that are widely distributed in animals, plants, and microorganisms. Their major function is to store IRON in a nontoxic bioavailable form. Each ferritin molecule consists of ferric iron in a hollow protein shell (APOFERRITINS) made of 24 subunits of various sequences depending on the species and tissue types.

|
Ferrochelatase
|
D005294 |
[A mitochondrial enzyme found in a wide variety of cells and tissues. It is the final enzyme in the 8-enzyme biosynthetic pathway of HEME. Ferrochelatase catalyzes ferrous insertion into protoporphyrin IX to form protoheme or heme. Deficiency in this enzyme results in ERYTHROPOIETIC PROTOPORPHYRIA.

Ferrocyanides
|
D005295 |
[Inorganic salts of the hypothetical acid ferrocyanic acid (H4Fe(CN)6).

|
Ferroptosis
|
D000079403 |
[A form of REGULATED CELL DEATH initiated by oxidative perturbations of the intracellular microenvironment that is under constitutive control by glutathione peroxidase 4 and can be inhibited by iron chelators and lipophilic antioxidants.
] |
|
Ferrosoferric Oxide
|
D052203 |
[Mineral form of iron oxide and a member of the spinel group, whose members are characterized by high hardness and high density.
, Iron (II,III) oxide (Fe3O4). It is a black ore of IRON that forms opaque crystals and exerts strong magnetism.

|
Ferrous Compounds
|
D005296 |
[Inorganic or organic compounds that contain divalent iron.
] |
|
Ferrozine
|
D005297 |
[A ferroin compound that forms a stable magenta-colored solution with the ferrous ion. The complex has an absorption peak at 562 nm and is used as a reagent and indicator for iron.
] |
|
Fertile Period
|
D046910 |
[The period in the MENSTRUAL CYCLE that is optimal for FERTILIZATION of the OVUM and yielding PREGNANCY. The duration of fertile period depends on the life span of male GAMETES within the female reproductive tract and the time of OVULATION. It usually begins a few days before ovulation and ends on the day of ovulation.

|
Fertilins
|
D000072196 |
[Sperm surface proteins involved in sperm-egg fusion. They consist of two subunits, fertilin alpha (ADAM1a) and beta (ADAM2), both of which belong to the metalloprotease-disintegrin protein family. The beta subunit does not have catalytic activity.

|
Fertility Agents
|
D005299 |
[Drugs used to increase fertility or to treat infertility.
