| antigen processing | Modification of an antigen by accessory cells. This usually involves endocytosis of the antigen and either minimal cleavage or unfolding. The processed antigen is then presented in modified form by the accessory cell. (18 Nov 1997) |
|---|---|
| automatic data processing | Data processing largely performed by automatic means. (12 Dec 1998) |
| batch processing | <technique> Growth in a closed system with a specific amount of nutrient medium. In bioprocessing, defined amounts of nutrient material and living matter are placed in a bioreactor and removed when the process is completed. (14 Nov 1997) |
| matrix processing peptidase | <enzyme> From matrix fraction of rat liver mitochondria; cleaves mitochondrial protein precursors; inhibited by metal chelators and reactived by mn2+; classified as EC 3.4.24.64 Registry number: EC 3.4.24.- Synonym: mitochondrial processing peptidase, mitochondrial processing protease, alpha-mpp, beta-mpp, p-52 protein, rat, p-55 protein, rat, mas1 protein, yeast, mas2 protein, yeast (26 Jun 1999) |
| RNA processing | <molecular biology> Modifications of primary RNA trancripts including splicing, cleavage, base modification, capping and the addition of poly A tails. See: RNA editing. (23 Aug 1998) |
| RNA processing, post-transcriptional | Post-transcriptional biological modification of messenger, transfer, or ribosomal rnas or their precursors. It includes cleavage, methylation, thiolation, isopentenylation, pseudouridine formation, conformational changes, and association with ribosomal protein. (12 Dec 1998) |
| word processing | Automated production of typewritten documents with text editing and storage functions using computer software. (12 Dec 1998) |
| continuous processing | A method of bioprocessing in which new materials are added and products removed continuously at a rate that maintains the volume at a specific level. (14 Nov 1997) |
| post-transcriptional processing | The enzymatic processing of the primary RNA transcript, which producesmessenger RNA and transfer RNA. (09 Oct 1997) |
| processing | 1. Posttranslational modification of proteins, particularly secretory proteins and proteins targeted for membranes or specific cellular locations. Synonym: trafficking. 2. Posttranscriptional modification of polynucleic acids. (05 Mar 2000) |
| protein processing, post-translational | Any of various enzymically catalyzed post-translational modifications of peptides or proteins in the cell of origin. These modifications include carboxylation, hydroxylation, acetylation, phosphorylation, methylation, glycosylation, oxidation-reduction, degradation and lysis, peptide bond formation, and changes in molecular weight and electrophoretic motility. (12 Dec 1998) |
| signal processing, computer-assisted | Computer-assisted processing of electric, ultrasonic, or electronic signals to interpret function and activity. (12 Dec 1998) |
| natural language processing | Computer processing of a language with rules that reflect and describe current usage rather than prescribed usage. (12 Dec 1998) |
| stromal processing peptidase | <enzyme> Involved in processing chloroplast stromal proteins Registry number: EC 3.4.24.- (26 Jun 1999) |
| data processing | Conversion of crude information into usable or storable form; statistical analysis of data by a computer program. (05 Mar 2000) |
