Catalysis of the reversible transfer of an amidino group to an acceptor. Catalysis of the transfer of a nitrogenous group from one compound (donor) to another (acceptor). Catalysis of the transfer of an amino group to an acceptor, usually a 2-oxo acid. Catalysis of the reaction: dATP + depurinated DNA = ribose triphosphate + DNA. Catalysis of a biochemical reaction at physiological temperatures. In biologically catalyzed reactions, the reactants are known as substrates, and the catalysts are naturally occurring macromolecular substances known as enzymes. Enzymes possess specific binding sites for substrates, and are usually composed wholly or largely of protein, but RNA that has catalytic activity (ribozyme) is often also regarded as enzymatic. Catalysis of the reaction: 1-deoxy-D-xylulose 5-phosphate + 3-amino-2-oxopropyl phosphate = pyridoxine 5'-phosphate + phosphate + 2 H2O. Catalysis of the reversible transfer of an oxime group to an acceptor. Catalysis of the transfer of a group, e.g. a methyl group, glycosyl group, acyl group, phosphorus-containing, or other groups, from one compound (generally regarded as the donor) to another compound (generally regarded as the acceptor). Transferase is the systematic name for any enzyme of EC class 2.
