hydrolase activity, acting on carbon-nitrogen (but not peptide) bonds, in cyclic amides

Catalysis of the hydrolysis of any non-peptide carbon-nitrogen bond in a cyclic amide.

hydrolase activity, acting on carbon-nitrogen (but not peptide) bonds, in linear amidines

Catalysis of the hydrolysis of any non-peptide carbon-nitrogen bond in a linear amidine, a compound of the form R-C(=NH)-NH2.

hydrolase activity, acting on carbon-nitrogen (but not peptide) bonds, in cyclic amidines

Catalysis of the hydrolysis of any non-peptide carbon-nitrogen bond in a cyclic amidine, a compound of the form R-C(=NH)-NH2.

hydrolase activity, acting on carbon-nitrogen (but not peptide) bonds, in nitriles

Catalysis of the hydrolysis of any non-peptide carbon-nitrogen bond in a nitrile, a compound containing the cyano radical, -CN.

hydrolase activity, acting on acid anhydrides

Catalysis of the hydrolysis of any acid anhydride.

hydrolase activity, acting on acid anhydrides, in phosphorus-containing anhydrides

Catalysis of the hydrolysis of any acid anhydride which contains phosphorus.

Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of macrophage differentiation.

The process whose specific outcome is the progression of the immature germ cell over time, from its formation to the mature structure (gamete).

The process of formation of spermatozoa, including spermatocytogenesis and spermiogenesis.

The process whose specific outcome is the progression of a male gamete over time, from initial commitment of the cell to a specific fate, to the fully functional differentiated cell.

Catalysis of the release of ammonia or one of its derivatives, with the formation of a double bond or ring. Enzymes with this activity may catalyze the actual elimination of the ammonia, amine or amide, e.g. CH-CH(-NH-R) = C=CH- + NH2-R. Others, however, catalyze elimination of another component, e.g. water, which is followed by spontaneous reactions that lead to breakage of the C-N bond, e.g. L-serine ammonia-lyase (EC:4.3.1.17), so that the overall reaction is C(-OH)-CH(-NH2) = CH2-CO- + NH3, i.e. an elimination with rearrangement. The sub-subclasses of EC:4.3 are the ammonia-lyases (EC:4.3.1), lyases acting on amides, amidines, etc. (EC:4.3.2), the amine-lyases (EC:4.3.3), and other carbon-nitrogen lyases (EC:4.3.99).
