| reverse transcriptons | An enzyme that converts RNA to DNA. Some viruses have only RNA as their primary genetic material. By converting their RNA genes to DNA with this enzyme, the host cell is 'tricked' into creating new copies of the virus. Useful in genetic engineering to make DNA from mRNA. (14 Nov 1997) |

| reverse Trendelenburg position | Supine position without flexing or extending, in which the head is higher than the feet. (05 Mar 2000) |
| HIV-1 reverse transcriptase | <enzyme> HIV-1 enzyme responsible for the synthesis of DNA from genomic RNA of the virus. It is encoded by the pol gene of HIV-1. Registry number: EC 2.7.7.- (12 Dec 1998) |
| HIV-2 reverse transcriptase | <enzyme> Responsible for synthesis of double-stranded DNA from the genomic RNA of the virus; has rnase h and DNA-dependent DNA polymerase activities; was indexed as reverse transcriptase (87-91) Registry number: EC 2.7.7.- (26 Jun 1999) |
| DNA reverse gyrase | <enzyme> A topoisomerase II subclass which introduces positive superhelical turns into DNA Registry number: EC 3.1.- Synonym: reverse gyrase (26 Jun 1999) |
| triiodothyronine, reverse | <chemical> 0-(4-hydroxy-3,5-diiodophenyl)-3-iodo-l-tyrosine. A metabolite of thyroxine formed by the peripheral degradation of thyroxine as a result of the tyrosyl or inner ring 5-deiodination. In systemic disease states or in neonates, levels of triiodothyronine are low and those of reverse triiodothyronine are elevated. Reverse t3 is therefore useful as a diagnostic aid and in the treatment of foetal and infantile hypothyroidism. Chemical name: L-Tyrosine, O-(4-hydroxy-3,5-diiodophenyl)-3-iodo- (12 Dec 1998) |
| behavioural genetics | The study of heritable factors in behavioural patterns, as by pedigree analysis, biochemical abnormality, or karyotypic analysis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| biochemical genetics | The study of genetics in terms of the chemical (biochemical) events involved, as in the manner in which DNA molecules replicate and control the synthesis of specific enzymes by the genetic code. (05 Mar 2000) |
| biometrical genetics | <study> The mathematical approach to the study of the inheritance of different phenotypes, or physical characteristics, as a result of plant or animal breeding. (09 Oct 1997) |
| Galtonian-Fisher genetics | The genetics of measurable traits determined by multiple loci which make contributions that are independent, additive, and approximately equal. Synonym: multilocal genetics. (05 Mar 2000) |
| galtonian genetics | The study of traits by analysis of the first two moments of metrical data; the preferred method for analysis of traits following the multivariate gaussian distribution. (05 Mar 2000) |
| palindrome in genetics | A palindrome is a word that reads the same in both directions as, for example, the names eve or anna. In genetics, a palindrome is a DNA or RNA sequence that reads the same in both directions. The sites of many restriction enzymes that cut (restrict) DNA are palindromes. Palindromic rheumatism is a form of joint inflammation whereby the joints involved appears to change periodically from one region of the body to another and back again. (12 Dec 1998) |
| variation (genetics) | The phenotypic differences among individuals in a population. (12 Dec 1998) |
| genetics | <study> The study of the patterns of inheritance of specific traits. (09 Oct 1997) |
| genetics, behavioural | The experimental study of the relationship between the genotype of an organism and its behaviour. The scope includes the effects of genes on simple sensory processes to complex organization of the nervous system. (12 Dec 1998) |
| reverse genetics |
Going from a gene (or its DNA sequence), often discovered via high- throughput sequencing and bioinformatics technologies, to its biological function. Reverse genetic methods are much more amenable to whole genome, high- throughput analysis and to automation than is forward genetics. Contrast with forward genetics, in which one goes from a heritable phenotype to discovery of a gene and its function. [CHI Functional Genomics]
