| contig map | <molecular biology> A map depicting the relative order of a linked library of small overlapping clones representing a complete chromosomal segment. (10 Nov 1998) |

| contiguous map | <molecular biology> A map depicting the relative order of a linked library of small overlapping clones representing a complete chromosomal segment. (10 Nov 1998) |
| cosmid map | <molecular biology> A physical map that includes a collection of bacteria containing cosmids that carry the DNA fragments under study. (10 Nov 1998) |
| cytogenetic map | A map in which the classical bonding pattern of a chromosome is shown. (05 Mar 2000) |
| sequence-tagged site map | A map representing the order and spacing of sequence-tagged sites within a stretch of DNA. (05 Mar 2000) |
| topographic map | <anatomy, neurology> The spatially ordered projection of neurons onto their target, for example in the retino tectal projection, retinal ganglion cell axons project along the optic nerve to the contralateral tectum where they ramify to form terminal arbors. The target sites of the terminal arbors are ordered: neurons from a specific region of the retina consistently project to a specific region of the tectum, forming a map of the retina on the tectum. (18 Nov 1997) |
| y map | The array of genes on the y chromosome. Once thought to be a genetic wasteland, the y now is known to contain at least 20 genes, some of them unique to the y including the male-determining gene and male fitness genes that are active only in the testis and are thought responsible for the formation of sperm. Other genes on the y have counterparts on the x chromosome, are active in many body tissues and play crucial housekeeping roles with the cell. (12 Dec 1998) |
| fate map | <embryology> Diagram of an early embryo (usually a blastula) showing which tissues the cells in each region will give rise to (i.e. Their developmental fate). Fate maps are normally constructed by labelling small groups of cells in the blastula with vital dyes and seeing which tissues are stained when the embryo develops. (18 Nov 1997) |
| linkage map | <genetics> A map of the relative positions of genetic loci on a chromosome, determined onthe basis of how often the loci are inherited together. Distance ismeasured in centimorgans (cM). (09 Oct 1997) |
| alpha-aminoacyl-peptide hydrolases | <enzyme> Registry number: EC 3.4.11. (12 Dec 1998) |
| anionic neutrophil activating peptide | <cytokine> A cytokine that activates neutrophils and attracts neutrophils and T-lymphocytes. It is released by several cell types including monocytes, macrophages, T-lymphocytes, fibroblasts, endothelial cells, and keratinocytes by an inflammatory stimulus. Il-8 is a member of the beta-thromboglobulin superfamily and structurally related to platelet factor 4. Acronym: IL-8 (12 Dec 1998) |
| antibiotics, peptide | Antibiotics whose structure contains one or more peptides, usually cyclic. They are generally effective against gram-positive bacteria and act by inhibiting peptidoglycan synthesis in bacterial cell walls. (12 Dec 1998) |
| atrial natriuretic peptide | <hormone> This cardiac hormone (28 amino acid residues) regulates salt and water balance in body fluids and blood pressure, it has potential as a medication to treat heart and kidney failure and the buildup of excess fluid in tissue. (09 Oct 1997) |
| bradykinin-potentiating peptide | <chemical> 2-l-tryptophan-3-de-l-leucine-4-de-l-proline-8-l-glutamine bradykinin potentiator b. A synthetic nonapeptide with the sequence pyr-trp-pro-arg-pro-gln-ile-pro-pro, which is identical to that of the peptide from the venom of the snake, bothrops jararaca. It acts as an inhibitor of kininase II and angiotensin I and has been proposed as an antihypertensive agent. Pharmacological action: angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors, antihypertensive agents. Chemical name: Bradykinin potentiator B, 2-L-tryptophan-3-de-L-leucine-4-de-L-proline-8-L-glutamine- (12 Dec 1998) |
| brain natriuretic peptide | <hormone, protein> Brain peptide that induces diuresis, related to atrial natriuretic peptide. (18 Nov 1997) |
