| recombinant fusion proteins | Proteins that are the result of genetic engineering. A regulatory part or promoter of one or more genes is combined with a structural gene. The fusion protein is formed after transcription and translation of the fused gene. This type of fusion protein is used in the study of gene regulation or structure-activity relationships. They might also be used clinically as targeted toxins (immunotoxins). (12 Dec 1998) |

| recombinant proteins | Proteins prepared by recombinant DNA technology. (12 Dec 1998) |
| recombinant strain | <molecular biology> A cell or an individual with a new combination of genes not found together in either parent, usually applied to linked genes. (18 Nov 1997) |
| recombinant vector | A vector into which a foreign DNA has been inserted. Synonym: vector. (05 Mar 2000) |
| clones, recombinant | Clones containing recombinant DNA molecules. (12 Dec 1998) |
| molecules, recombinant DNA | A combination of DNA molecules of different origin that are joined using recombinant DNA technology. (12 Dec 1998) |
| somatotropins, recombinant | Somatotropin prepared by recombinant DNA technology. Several different forms have been developed from humans, cows, and pigs. They have been used to help stimulate growth. (12 Dec 1998) |
| DNA molecules, recombinant | A combination of DNA molecules of different origin that are joined using recombinant DNA technology. (12 Dec 1998) |
| DNA, recombinant | Biologically active DNA which has been formed by the in vitro joining of segments of DNA from different sources. It includes the recombination joint or edge of a heteroduplex region where two recombining DNA molecules are connected. (12 Dec 1998) |
| DNA technology, recombinant | A series of procedures used to join together (recombine) DNA segments. A recombinant DNA molecule is constructed (recombined) from segments from 2 or more different DNA molecules. Under certain conditions, a recombinant DNA molecule can enter a cell and replicate there, autonomously (on its own) or after it has become integrated into a chromosome. (12 Dec 1998) |

| activated macrophage | A mature macrophage, in an active metabolic state, that is cytotoxic to tumour/target cells, usually following exposure to certain cytokines. Synonym: armed macrophage. (05 Mar 2000) |
| alveolar macrophage | Macrophage found in lung and that can be obtained by lung lavage, responsible for clearance of inhaled particles and lung surfactant. Metabolism slightly different from peritoneal macrophages (more oxidative metabolism), often have multivesicular bodies that may represent residual undigested lung surfactant. (18 Nov 1997) |
| alveolar macrophage elastase | <enzyme> Metalloproteinase found in human alveolar macrophages Registry number: EC 3.4.24.- Synonym: elastase, alveolar macrophage, metalloproteinase elastase, human macrophage metalloelastase, mmp12 gene product, mmp-12 gene product, mme gene product, macrophage metalloelastase (26 Jun 1999) |
