Term Name: negative regulation of transferase activity
Synonyms: down regulation of transferase activity, down-regulation of transferase activity, downregulation of transferase activity, inhibition of transferase activity, transferase inhibitor
Definition: Any process that stops or reduces the rate of transferase activity, the catalysis of the transfer of a group, e.g. a methyl group, glycosyl group, acyl group, phosphorus-containing, or other groups, from a donor compound to an acceptor.
