| 영문 | nucleic acid | 한글 | 핵산 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 설명 | 염기, 당, 인산으로 이루어진 뉴클레오티드가 긴 사슬 모양으로 중합된 고분자 물질. 유전이나 단백질 합성을 지배하는 중요한 물질로, 생물의 증식을 비롯한 생명 활동 유지에 중요한 작용을 한다. 구성 당인 오탄당이 리보오스인 리보핵산과 디옥시리보오스인 디옥시리보 핵산으로 나뉜다. 펜토스로서 리보스나 데옥시리보스 어느 한쪽만을 포함하며 전자를 리보핵산(RNA), 후자를 데옥시리보핵산(deoxyribonucleic acid, DNA)이라 부른다. 모두 4종류의 유기염기에 의해 특징지어지며 아데닌, 구아닌 및 시토신은 양자에 공통이다. 티민은 DNA에, 우라실은 RNA에 포함된다. DNA는 주로 핵에 존재하며 형질유전에 그리고 RNA는 세포질속에서 단백질 합성에 관여한다. 섭취된 핵산은 소화관에서 구성분자로까지 가수분해되어 흡수된다. |

| syringomyelic dissociation | Loss of pain and temperature sensation with relative retention of tactile sensation, related to a cavity in the central portion of the cord interrupting the decussation of nerve fibres. (05 Mar 2000) |
|---|---|
| dissociation | 1. The act of separating or state of being separated. 2. <chemistry> The separation of a molecule into two or more fragments (atoms, molecules, ions or free radicals) produced by the absorption of light or thermal energy or by solvation. 3. <psychology> A defense mechanism in which a group of mental processes are segregated from the rest of a person's mental activity in order to avoid emotional distress, as in the dissociative disorders or in which an idea or object is segregated from its emotional significance, in the first sense it is roughly equivalent to splitting, in the second, to isolation. 4. A defect of mental integration in which one or more groups of mental processes become separated off from normal consciousness and, thus separated, function as a unitary whole. Origin: L. Sociatio = union (18 Nov 1997) |
| dissociation by interference | The simultaneous operation of two separate cardiac pacemaking foci that are unassociated because of interference (a normal physiologic phenomenon) due to rendering their respective territories refractory to each other. Usually atrioventricular dissociation is indicated, the rates being quite close to each other with the atrial rate slightly faster than that of the pacemaker in control of the ventricles. Capture is in either direction, usually the ventricle by the atrium, in incomplete dissociation. H Synonym: dissociation by interference. (05 Mar 2000) |
| dissociation sensibility | The loss of the pain and the thermal senses with preservation of tactile sensibility or vice versa. (05 Mar 2000) |
| incomplete atrioventricular dissociation | A-V dissociation interrupted by ventricular captures. (05 Mar 2000) |
| interference dissociation | The simultaneous operation of two separate cardiac pacemaking foci that are unassociated because of interference (a normal physiologic phenomenon) due to rendering their respective territories refractory to each other. Usually atrioventricular dissociation is indicated, the rates being quite close to each other with the atrial rate slightly faster than that of the pacemaker in control of the ventricles. Capture is in either direction, usually the ventricle by the atrium, in incomplete dissociation. H Synonym: dissociation by interference. (05 Mar 2000) |
| isorhythmic dissociation | <cardiology, physiology> A-V dissociation characterised by equal or closely similar atrial and ventricular rates. (05 Mar 2000) |
| tabetic dissociation | Loss of proprioceptive sensation with retained pain and temperature sensation due to involvement of the posterior columns of the spinal cord. (05 Mar 2000) |
| theory of electrolytic dissociation | The theory of electrolytic dissociation (1887) that became the basis of our modern understanding of electrolytes: in an electrically conductive solution (e.g., acid, base, or salt), free ions are present before electrolysis, and the proportion of molecules dissociated into ions can be calculated from measurements of electrical conductivity as well as of osmotic pressure. Synonym: Arrhenius law. (05 Mar 2000) |
| electromechanical dissociation | Persistence of electrical activity in the heart without associated mechanical contraction; often a sign of cardiac rupture. (05 Mar 2000) |
| light-near dissociation | A stronger near pupil response than light response; due to weak pupillomotor input, Argyll Robertson pupil, dorsal midbrain syndrome, or to misdirection of ciliary muscle fibres into the iris sphincter. Synonym: light-near dissociation. (05 Mar 2000) |
| longitudinal dissociation | Dissociation between parallel chambers of the heart, as between one atrium and the other or between one ventricle and the other, in contrast to dissociation between atria and ventricles. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Ambard's constant | <physiology> Obsolete law's for output of urea: 1. With the urinary urea concentration constant, urea output varies directly as the square of the concentration of the blood urea. 2. With the blood urea concentration constant, urea output varies inversely as the square root of its urinary concentration. (05 Mar 2000) |
| association constant | <chemistry> Reciprocal of dissociation constant. A measure of the extent of a reversible association between two molecular species at equilibrium. (18 Nov 1997) |
| Avogadro's constant | <physics> The number of molecules in a mole (gram molecular weight) of a substance, equals 6.02 x 1023 molecules. (09 Oct 1997) |
