| 설명 | 길게 늘어서 있는 DNA사슬의 유전정보가 각각의 아미노산에 대응하여 단백질의 합성에 사용될 수 있게 읽혀지는 방법. DNA 분자는 각각의 Deoxyribonucleotide가 연결되어서 이루는 구조이다. 이Deoxyribonucleolide는 당, 인산, 그리고 염기로 이루어져 있다. 당과 인산은 각각의 Deoxyribonucleotide가 연결되게 유지해주는 역할을 하고 염기가 유전정보를 가지고 있으며 이 염기의 배열이 유전정보 즉 단백질의 합성에 필요한 정보를 가지고 있다. DNA를 이루는 염기는 4개로 아데닌(adenine), 구아닌(guanine), 티민(thymine), 시토신(cytosine)의 4가지이다. 4개의 염기가 섞여있는 배열을 한 개의 단백질로 합성을 하기 위해서는 이 배열을 해독하는 방법이 있어야 한다. 즉 그 방법은 3개의 염기의 배열을 하나의 아미노산에 대응시켜서 각 아미노산의 서열을 정하고 단백질을 만드는 것이다. 예를 들면 cytosine-cytosine-cytosine이라는 배열은 proline이라는 단백질을 의미하는 것으로 읽혀지게 된다. 이렇게 아무런 규칙이 없는 것 같은 염기서열을 하나의 아미노산과 대응시켜서 읽는 방법이 유전부호이다. |

| 설명 | 자율신경계는 활동하고 있으나 수의운동이 전혀 불능한 상태를 말한다. 따라서 호흡, 심박은 지속하고 있으나 의식적인 활동을 일으키는 일은 할 수 없다. 원인은 두부외상-척추손상-뇌혈관손상-뇌척수종양-중독 등 여러 가지가 있지만, 가장 많은 것은 교통사고 등에 의한 머리외상이다. 대뇌의 표층부는 대뇌겉질이라 하는데, 이 곳에는 백 수 십억의 신경세포가 모여 있어서 운동-감각-의식 등의 작용을 담당하고 있다. 이 대뇌겉질의 손상을 입으면 운동기능이나 의식이 정지되고, 뇌줄기가 담당하는 호흡기능-소화기능-심장박동기능 밖에 하지 못하게 된다. |

| genetic code | <molecular biology> Relationship between the sequence of bases in nucleic acid and the order of amino acids in the polypeptide synthesised from it. A sequence of three nucleic acid bases (a triplet) acts as a codeword (codon) for one amino acid. (18 Nov 1997) |
|---|---|
| code | The genetic code is the correspondence between the triplet of bases in DNA with the amino acids. The discovery of the genetic code clearly ranks as one of the premiere events of what has been called the Golden Age of Biology (and Medicine). (12 Dec 1998) |
| soundex code | A sequence of letters used for recording names phonetically, especially in record linkage. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Strickland code | <zoology> A code of nomenclature for taxonomic classification prepared by a committee of the British Association for the Advancement of Science, first published in 1842. (09 Jan 1998) |
| degenerate code | <molecular biology> The fact that in most cases in the genetic code used by all life on Earth, one particular amino acid is specified by more than one three-base combination of the four nitrogenous bases (called a codon). There are enough different codons to specify 64 different amino acids, but there are in actuality only 20 amino acids (and three stop codons) used in the making of proteins. (09 Oct 1997) |
| International Code of Zoological Nomenclature | <zoology> An Authoritative document containing a system of rules and recommendations to be followed in giving a scientific name to an animal or animal group. Adopted by the International Congresses of Zoology and Administered by the International Commission on Zoological Nomenclature. The most recent version of the Code, adopted in principle by the 20th General Assembly of the International Union of Biological Sciences at Helsinki in 1979, was approved by the ICZN late in 1983. With minor exceptions it retains the same format as the first two editions. Minor amendments for immediate incorporation are published in Bulletin Zoological Nomenclature as Declarations to remain in force until ratified or rejected by future congresses. (09 Jan 1998) |
| uniform mechanical code | (UMC) A code sponsored by the International Association of Plumbing and Mechanical Officials and the International Conference of Building Officials, adopted and amended by the Oregon Department of Commerce. The UMC contains requirements for the installation and maintenance of heating, ventilating, cooling, and refrigeration systems. (05 Dec 1998) |
| west | 1. The point in the heavens where the sun is seen to set at the equinox; or, the corresponding point on the earth; that one of the four cardinal points of the compass which is in a direction at right angles to that of north and south, and on the left hand of a person facing north; the point directly opposite to east. "And fresh from the west is the free wind's breath." (Bryant) 2. A country, or region of country, which, with regard to some other country or region, is situated in the direction toward the west. 3. Specifically: The Westen hemisphere, or the new World so called, it having been discovered by sailing westward from Europe; the Occident. Formerly, that part of the United States west of the Alleghany mountains; now, commonly, the whole region west of the Mississippi river; especially, that part which is north of the Indian Territory, new Mexico, etc. Usually with the definite article. West by north, West by south, according to the notation of the mariner's compass, that point which lies 11 1/4 deg to the north or south, respectively, of the point due west. West northwest, West southwest, that point which lies 22 1/2 deg to the north or south of west, or halfway between west and northwest or southwest, respectively. Origin: AS. West, adv.; akin to D.
