| specialised transduction | Transduction in which the bacteriophage strain is able to transfer only some, or only one, of the donor bacterium genes. Synonym: specific transduction. (05 Mar 2000) |

| transduction | 1. <molecular biology> The transfer of a gene from one bacterium to another by a bacteriophage. In generalised transduction any gene may be transferred as a result of accidental incorporation during phage packaging. In specialised transduction only specific genes can be transferred, as a result of improper recombination out of the host chromosome of the prophage of a lysogenic phage. Transduction is an infrequent event but transducing phages have proved useful in the genetic analysis of bacteria. 2. <biology, physics> The conversion of a signal from one form to another. For example: various types of sensory cells convert or transduce light, pressure, chemicals, etc. Into nerve impulses and the binding of many hormones to receptors at the cell surface is transduced into an increase in cAMP within the cell. (17 Mar 1998) |
| transduction, genetic | Transfer of bacterial DNA by phages from the infected bacterium in which the DNA originates to another bacterium. (12 Dec 1998) |
| low frequency transduction | Specialised transduction in which only a small portion of the prophage particles, because of their defectiveness, are able to develop sufficiently to serve as effective transducing agents. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Adair-Koshland-Nemethy-Filmer model | <biochemistry, chemistry> A model to explain the allosteric form of cooperativity; in this model, in the absence of ligands, the protein exists in only one conformation; upon binding, the ligand induces a conformational change that may be transmitted to other subunits. Synonym: Adair-Koshland-Nemethy-Filmer model, induced fit model. (05 Mar 2000) |
| additive model | A model in which the combined effect of several factors is the sum of the effects that would be produced by each of the factors in the absence of the others. (05 Mar 2000) |
| age-structured model | <epidemiology> A mathematical model which take into consideration the division of the host population into different age classes. Such models can used to consider the consequences of such factors as age-dependent infection, morbidity or mortality rates or of age-specific vaccination schedules. (05 Dec 1998) |
| animal model | Study in a population of laboratory animals that uses conditions of animals analogous to conditions of humans to simulate processes comparable to those that occur in human populations. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Bingham model | A model representing the flow behaviour of a Bingham plastic, in the idealised case. (05 Mar 2000) |
| biomedical model | A conceptual model of illness that excludes psychological and social factors and includes only biological factors in an attempt to understand a person's medical illness or disorder. (05 Mar 2000) |
| biopsychosocial model | A conceptual model that assumes that psychological and social factors must also be included along with the biological in understanding a person's medical illness or disorder. (05 Mar 2000) |
| genetic model | A formalised conjecture about the behaviour of a heritable structure in which the component terms are intended to have literal interpretation as standard structures of empirical genetics. (05 Mar 2000) |
| mathematical model | <epidemiology> A formal framework to convey ideas about the components of a host-parasite interaction. Construction requires three major types of information: (a) a clear understanding of the interaction within the individual host between the infectious agent and the host, (b) the mode and rate of transmission between individuals, and (c) host population characteristics such as demography and behaviour. Mathematical models can aid exploration of the behaviour of the system under various conditions from which to determine the dominant factors generating observed patterns and phenomena. They also aid data collection and interpretation and parameter estimation, and provide tools for identifying possible approaches to control and for assessing the potential impact of different intervention measures. (05 Dec 1998) |
| catalytic model | <epidemiology> A (rather misleading name for a) type of compartmental model in which the force of infection is treated as a parameter to be estimated. (05 Dec 1998) |
