| structural gene | A gene that codes for a product (e.g. An enzyme, structural protein, tRNA), as opposed to a gene that serves a regulatory role. (18 Nov 1997) |
|---|---|
| structural interface | In dentistry, a boundary between tooth and restorative material. (05 Mar 2000) |
| structural isomerism | Isomerism involving the same atoms in different arrangements; e.g., butyric acids, leucine and isoleucine, glucose and fructose. (05 Mar 2000) |
| structural isomers | <chemistry> Are organic compounds that have the same som formula, meaning the same number of carbons, hydrogens or other type ot atoms. They differ from each other in the way the atoms are connected. Examples are n-butane and 2-methylpropane or ethanol and dimethylether. (09 Jan 1998) |
| acute viral conjunctivitis | An epidemic inflammation of the conjunctiva marked by follicles, especially in the lower fornix; may be caused by adenoviruses, herpesvirus, and Newcastle disease virus. (05 Mar 2000) |
| antibodies, viral | Immunoglobulins produced as a response to viral antigens; includes all classes of immunoglobulins elicited by all viral components. (12 Dec 1998) |
| antigens, viral | Substances elaborated by viruses that have antigenic activity. (12 Dec 1998) |
| antigens, viral, tumour | Those proteins recognised by antibodies from serum of animals bearing tumours induced by viruses; these proteins are presumably coded for by the nucleic acids of the same viruses that caused the neoplastic transformation. (12 Dec 1998) |
| avian viral arthritis virus | A virus of the genus Reovirus, family Reoviridae, causing tenosynovitis and arthritis in chickens. (05 Mar 2000) |
| bronchiolitis, viral | An acute inflammatory disease of the upper respiratory tract, caused by paramyxoviruses, occurring primarily in infants and young children; the viruses most commonly implicated are parainfluenza type 3 and respiratory syncytial virus. (12 Dec 1998) |
| gene expression regulation, viral | Any of the processes by which cytoplasmic factors influence the differential control of gene action in viruses. (12 Dec 1998) |
| genome, viral | The complete gene complement contained in a DNA or RNA molecule in a virus. (12 Dec 1998) |
| viral | Pertaining to, caused by or of the nature of virus. (18 Nov 1997) |
| viral alkaline nuclease | <enzyme> Has both exo and endonuclease activity Registry number: EC 3.1.- Synonym: hsv type 1 alkaline nuclease, herpes simplex virus type I alkaline nuclease, alkaline nuclease, herpes simplex virus (26 Jun 1999) |
| viral antigen | Those antigens specified by the viral genome (often coat proteins) that can be detected by a specific immunological response. Often of diagnostic importance. (18 Nov 1997) |
