|---|---|---|---|
| 설명 | 원형질 표면을 덮는 엷은막. 두께는 5~25μm이다. 광학현미경으로는 관찰할 수 없지만 전자현미경으로 관찰이 가능하다. 원형질막의 분자구조는 레시틴이나 콜레스테롤 등의 표면 활성물질 분자가 2분자층으로 그 표면에 배열되며, 이것을 각 1분자층의 단백질 분자가 양쪽에서 샌드위치한 단위막 구조이다. 전자현미경적으로 이 단위는 암-명-암의 3층(각 약 20nm)으로 구별된다. 원형질의 투과성에 중요한 구실을 하며, 생리상태가 변하면 그 투과성도 신속히 변한다. 또, 손상이 되면 쉽게 새로 형성된다. |

| heterogeneous nuclear RNA | An ill-defined form of RNA, of high molecular weight, that never leaves the nucleus and is thought to be the precursor of messenger RNA. (05 Mar 2000) |

| heterogenous nuclear RNA | <molecular biology> Originally identified as a class of RNA, found in the nucleus but not the nucleolus, which is rapidly labelled and with a very wide range of sizes, 2-40 kilobases. It represents the primary transcripts of RNA polymerase II and includes precursors of all messenger RNAs from which introns are removed by splicing. (18 Nov 1997) |
| small nuclear RNA | <molecular biology> A nucleic acid found in all living cells. Plays a role in transferring information from DNA to the protein-forming system of the cell. (16 Dec 1997) |
| nuclear | <cell biology> Of or pertaining to a nucleus; as, the nuclear spindle or the nuclear fibrils of a cell; the nuclear part of a comet, etc. Source: Websters Dictionary (01 Mar 1998) |
| Nuclear actin binding protein | <molecular biology> Nuclear protein, dimer of 34 kD subunits. Binds actin with Kd of around 25M. (18 Nov 1997) |
| nuclear atom | <physics, radiobiology> A concept or model of the atom characterised by the presence of a small, massive nucleus at its centre. (05 Mar 2000) |
| nuclear bag | <cell biology> The aggregation of nuclei occurring in the nonstriated centre of an intrafusal muscle fibre of a neuromuscular spindle. (05 Mar 2000) |
| nuclear bag fibre | The largest type of intrafusal muscle fibre's in a neuromuscular spindle, containing a central aggregation of nuclei (nuclear bag). (05 Mar 2000) |
| nuclear binding energy | <physics> The difference between the total energy (= mc^2) of the bound nucleus, and the energies of the individual constituent particles (= sum of masses c^2). The nuclear binding energy per nucleon is a maximum for iron. Fusion releases energy because light nuclei are less tightly bound than medium-weight nuclei, and thus energy is liberated when they become more tightly bound after fusing. Fission releases energy for the same reason - heavy nuclei are also less tightly bound than medium-weight nuclei, and energy is liberated when heavy nuclei split into lighter nuclei. (09 Oct 1997) |
| nuclear bone scan | A nuclear medicine test that involves the introduction of a radioactive compound into the blood stream. The radioactive compound acts as a tracer and allows for the imaging of the bony skeleton. (27 Sep 1997) |

| nuclear chain fibre | The shortest and most numerous type of intrafusal muscle fibre's in a neuromuscular spindle, containing a single row of centrally positioned nuclei. (05 Mar 2000) |
