| base substitution | <molecular biology> One nucleotide base is replaced by another in a DNA molecule. This is also called a point mutation. (09 Oct 1997) |
|---|---|
| base pair | <molecular biology> Two nitrogenous bases (adenine and thymine or guanine and cytosine) held together by weak bonds. Two strands of DNA are held together in the shape of a double helix by the bonds between base pairs. (09 Oct 1997) |
| conjugate acid-base pair | In prototonic solvents (e.g., H2O, NH3, acetic acid), two molecular species differing only in the presence or absence of a hydrogen ion (e.g., carbonic acid/bicarbonate ion or ammonium ion/ammonia); the basis of buffer action. (05 Mar 2000) |
| amino acid substitution | The naturally occurring or experimentally induced replacement of one or more amino acids in a protein with another. If a functionally equivalent amino acid is substituted, the protein may retain wild-type activity. Substitution may also diminish or eliminate protein function. Experimentally induced substitution is often used to study enzyme activities and binding site properties. (12 Dec 1998) |
| conservative substitution | In a gene product, a substitution of one amino acid with another with generally similar properties (size, hydrophobicity, etc), such that the overall functioning is likely not to be seriously affected. (18 Nov 1997) |
| stimulus substitution | <psychology> Learning that takes place when a conditioned stimulus is paired with an unconditioned stimulus. (12 Dec 1998) |
| substitution | 1. The act of putting one thing in the place of another, especially the chemical replacement of one element or radical by some other. 2. A defense mechanism, operating unconsciously, in which an unattainable or unacceptable goal, emotion or object is replaced by one that is attainable or acceptable. Origin: L. Substitutio, from statuere = to place (18 Nov 1997) |
| substitution mutation | A mutation caused by a nucleotide base being replaced by a different one. (09 Oct 1997) |
| substitution product | A product obtained by replacing one atom or group in a molecule with another atom or group. (05 Mar 2000) |
| substitution therapy | Replacement therapy, particularly when replacement is not physiological but entails administration of a substitute. (05 Mar 2000) |
| substitution transfusion | Removal of most of a patient's blood followed by introduction of an equal amount from donors. Synonym: exsanguination transfusion, substitution transfusion, total transfusion. (05 Mar 2000) |
| symptom substitution | An unconscious psychological process by which a repressed impulse is indirectly manifested through a particular symptom, e.g., anxiety, compulsion, depression, hallucination, obsession. Synonym: symptom formation. (05 Mar 2000) |
| freeze substitution | A modification of the freeze-drying method in which the ice within the frozen tissue is replaced by alcohol or other solvent at a very low temperature. (12 Dec 1998) |
| buffer pair | An acid and its conjugate base (anion). (05 Mar 2000) |
| pair | 1. To be joined in paris; to couple; to mate, as for breeding. 2. To suit; to fit, as a counterpart. "My heart was made to fit and pair with thine." (Rowe) 3. Same as To pair off. See phrase below. To pair off, to separate from a company in pairs or couples; specif., to agree with one of the opposite party or opinion to abstain from voting on specified questions or issues. See Pair. Origin: Paired; Pairing. 1. A number of things resembling one another, or belonging together; a set; as, a pair or flight of stairs. "A pair of beads." . "Four pair of stairs." . Origin: Now mostly or quite disused, except as to stairs] "Two crowns in my pocket, two pair of cards." (Beau. & Fl) 2. Two things of a kind, similar in form, suited to each other, and intended to be used together; as, a pair of gloves or stockings; a pair of shoes. 3. Two of a sort; a span; a yoke; a couple; a brace; as, a pair of horses; a pair of oxen. 4. A married couple; a man and wife. "A happy pair." . "The hapless pair." . 5.

Two members of opposite parties or opinion, as in a parliamentary body, who mutually agree not to vote on a given question, or on issues of a party nature during a specified time; as, there were two pairs on the final vote. 7. <physics> In a mechanism, two elements, or bodies, which are so applied to each other as to mutually constrain relative motion. Pairs are named in accordance with the kind of motion they permit; thus, a journal and its bearing form a turning pair, a cylinder and its piston a sliding pair, a screw and its nut a twisting pair, etc. Any pair in which the constraining contact is along lines or at points only (as a cam and roller acting together), is designated a higher pair; any pair having constraining surfaces which fit each other (as a cylindrical pin and eye, a screw and its nut, etc), is called a lower pair. Pair royal (pl. Pairs Royal) three things of a sort; used especially of playing cards in some games, as cribbage; as three kings, three "eight spots" etc. Four of a kind are called a double pair royal. "Something in his face gave me as much pleasure as a pair royal of naturals in my own hand." . "That great pair royal of adamantine sisters [the Fates]" . [Written corruptly parial and prial. Synonym: Pair, Flight, Set. Originally, pair was not confined to two things, but was applied to any number of equal things (pares), that go together.
