| sequence tagged sites | Short, tagged tracts of DNA sequence that are used as landmarks in genome mapping. In most instances, 200 to 500 base pairs of sequence define a sequence tagged site (sts) that is operationally unique in the human genome (i.e., can be specifically detected by the polymerase chain reaction in the presence of all other genomic sequences). The overwhelming advantage of stss over mapping landmarks defined in other ways is that the means of testing for the presence of a particular sts can be completely described as information in a database.

| sequence, complementary | Nucleic acid sequence of bases that can form a double- stranded structure by matching base pairs. For example, the complementary sequence to c-a-t-g (where each letter stands for one of the bases in DNA) is g-t-a-c. (12 Dec 1998) |
| sequence, conserved | A base sequence in a DNA molecule (or an amino acid sequence in a protein) that has remained essentially unchanged throughout evolution. (12 Dec 1998) |
| sequence, regulatory | A sequence of bases in DNA that controls the expression of a gene. (12 Dec 1998) |
| sequence-tagged site map | A map representing the order and spacing of sequence-tagged sites within a stretch of DNA. (05 Mar 2000) |
| sequence-tagged sites | Short stretches of DNA sequences that can be detected by use of the polymerase chain reaction. (05 Mar 2000) |
| sequencing | <molecular biology, procedure> Determination of the order of nucleotides (base sequences) in a DNA or RNA molecule or the order of amino acids in a protein. (11 Jun 1998) |
| sequential | Occurring in sequence. (05 Mar 2000) |
| sequential analysis | A statistical method that allows an experiment to be ended as soon as a result of desired precision is obtained. (05 Mar 2000) |
| sequential hermaphrodite | <biology, zoology> A type of hermaphrodite which starts out life as one sex and will either turn into a member of the other sex at a later point in life or will be capable of doing so if an appropriate condition arises (for example: the removal of all of the males in a population triggers the most dominant female to become a male).

| sequester | 1. To separate from the owner for a time; to take from parties in controversy and put into the possession of an indifferent person; to seize or take possession of, as property belonging to another, and hold it till the profits have paid the demand for which it is taken, or till the owner has performed the decree of court, or clears himself of contempt; in international law, to confiscate. "Formerly the goods of a defendant in chancery were, in the last resort, sequestered and detained to enforce the decrees of the court. And now the profits of a benefice are sequestered to pay the debts of ecclesiastics." (Blackstone) 2. To cause (one) to submit to the process of sequestration; to deprive (one) of one's estate, property, etc. "It was his tailor and his cook, his fine fashions and his French ragouts, which sequestered him." (South) 3. To set apart; to put aside; to remove; to separate from other things. "I had wholly sequestered my civil affairss." (Bacon) 4. To cause to retire or withdraw into obscurity; to seclude; to withdraw; often used reflexively. "When men most sequester themselves from action." (Hooker) "A love and desire to sequester a man's self for a higher conversation." (Bacon) 5. (Chem) To bind, so as to make [a metal ion] unavailable in its normal form; said of chelating agents, such as EDTA, which, in a solution, bind tightly to multivalent metal cations, thereby lowering their effective concentration in solution. Compounds employed particularly for this purpose are called sequestering agents, or chelating agents. In biochemistry, sequestration is one means of reversibly inhibiting enzymes which depend on divalent metal cations (such as Magnesium) for their activity. Such agents are used, for example, to help preserve blood for storage and subsequent use in transfusion. Origin: F. Sequestrer, L. Sequestrare to give up for safe keeping, from sequester a depositary or trustee in whose hands the thing contested was placed until the dispute was settled. Cf. Sequestrate. 1. Sequestration; separation. 2. A person with whom two or more contending parties deposit the subject matter of the controversy; one who mediates between two parties; a mediator; an umpire or referee. 3. <medicine> Same as Sequestrum.
