transferázové

Transferázové refers to a broad class of enzymes that catalyze the transfer of functional groups from one molecule (the donor) to another molecule (the acceptor). This fundamental biochemical process is essential for a vast array of metabolic pathways and cellular functions. Transferases are classified based on the type of chemical group they transfer. Common examples include methyltransferases, which move methyl groups, and kinases, which transfer phosphate groups. These enzymes play critical roles in energy production, DNA replication and repair, protein synthesis, and signal transduction. The precise and regulated action of transferases ensures the correct assembly and modification of biomolecules, making them indispensable for life. Errors in transferase activity can lead to various diseases, highlighting their importance in maintaining cellular homeostasis.
