Noun used with modifier

• tyrosine: Some of these proteins belong to a group called the tyrosine kinases.

• creatine: There is also a slightly elevated creatine kinase level in females carrying a DMD disease allele.

• phosphorylase: Phosphorylase kinase is a key enzyme in the control of glycogen metabolism.

• serine/threonine: Its amino acid sequence shows much greater homology to consensus sequences derived from protein serine/threonine kinases than to the consensus for protein tyrosine kinases.
