Transferases

Transferases are enzymes that catalyze the transfer of functional groups from donor molecules to acceptor molecules, encompassing methyltransferases, glycosyltransferases, acyltransferases, aminotransferases, and other types. They play important roles in the conversion of metabolic intermediates, epigenetic modification, processing of signaling molecules, and metabolism of exogenous substances, and are a focus of metabolic regulation and drug metabolism research.
