2. Glucuronosyltransferase - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glucuronosyltransferase

   Famously, UGT enzymes are not present in the genus Felis, [4] and this accounts for a number of unusual toxicities in the cat family. The glucuronidation reaction consists of the transfer of the glucuronosyl group from uridine 5'-diphospho-glucuronic acid (UDPGA) to substrate molecules that contain oxygen, nitrogen, sulfur or carboxyl ...

3. Cat anatomy - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cat_anatomy

   The short length of the digestive tract of the cat causes cats' digestive system to weigh less than other species of animals, which allows cats to be active predators. [31] While cats are well adapted to be predators they have a limited ability to regulate catabolic enzymes of amino acids meaning amino acids are constantly being destroyed and ...

4. Chloramphenicol acetyltransferase - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chloramphenicol_acetyl...

   Chloramphenicol acetyltransferase (or CAT) is a bacterial enzyme (EC 2.3.1.28) [1] that detoxifies the antibiotic chloramphenicol and is responsible for chloramphenicol resistance in bacteria. [2] This enzyme covalently attaches an acetyl group from acetyl-CoA to chloramphenicol, which prevents chloramphenicol from binding to ribosomes .

5. Monogastric - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monogastric

   A monogastric digestive system works as soon as the food enters the mouth. Saliva moistens the food and begins the digestive process. (Note that horses have no (or negligible amounts of) amylase in their saliva). After being swallowed, the food passes from the esophagus into the stomach, where stomach acid and enzymes help to

6. Kopi luwak - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kopi_luwak

   During digestion, digestive enzymes and gastric juices permeate through the endocarp of coffee cherries and break down storage proteins, yielding shorter peptides. This alters the composition of amino acids and impacts the aroma of the coffee. In the roasting process, the proteins undergo a non-enzymatic Maillard reaction. [12]

7. Carnitine O-acetyltransferase - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carnitine_O-acetyltransferase

   Carnitine O-acetyltransferase also called carnitine acetyltransferase (CRAT, or CAT) [5] (EC 2.3.1.7) is an enzyme that encoded by the CRAT gene that catalyzes the chemical reaction. acetyl-CoA + carnitine CoA + acetylcarnitine. where the acetyl group displaces the hydrogen atom in the central hydroxyl group of carnitine.
