Molecular biology
salvage pathway
Biology; Biochemistry
A metabolic reaction that recovers some of a partially degraded compound for resynthesis, e.g. resynthesis of GTP from guanine recovered from degradation of nucleotides via the hypoxanthine-guanine ...
ion-exchange chromatography
Biology; Biochemistry
A technique for separation of charged compounds or macromolecules in solution according to their affinities for a positively charged stationary phase (an anion exchanger) or a negatively charged ...
human artificial chromosome (HAC)
Biology; Biochemistry
An artificial assembly of chromosome features, telomere, centromere, etc., that is used to test the minimum features required for replication in transfected cells. The mammalian artificial chromosome ...
transfer-messenger RNA (tmRNA)
Biology; Biochemistry
A single or two-strand bacterial RNA with both tRNA and mRNA functions. As part of a ribonucleoprotein complex it can rescue a ribosome that has become trapped in a complex by a mRNA that has lost ...
10Sa RNA
Biology; Biochemistry
A single or two-strand bacterial RNA with both tRNA and mRNA functions. As part of a ribonucleoprotein complex it can rescue a ribosome that has become trapped in a complex by a mRNA that has lost ...
SsrA
Biology; Biochemistry
A single or two-strand bacterial RNA with both tRNA and mRNA functions. As part of a ribonucleoprotein complex it can rescue a ribosome that has become trapped in a complex by a mRNA that has lost ...
thin-layer chromatography (TLC)
Biology; Biochemistry
A technique to separate small molecules on a thin film of an adsorbent on a glass or semi-rigid plastic surface by their differential mobilities in a liquid phase that passes through the film by ...
