| dominant hemisphere | That cerebral hemisphere containing the representation of speech and controlling the arm and leg used preferentially in skilled movements; usually the left hemisphere. (05 Mar 2000) |
| dominant idea | An idea that governs all one's actions and thoughts. (05 Mar 2000) |
| dominant lethal trait | Trait, expressed in the phenotype if present in the genotype, that precludes having descendants. All such cases are necessarily sporadic and must represent new mutations as the usual methods of classical genetics provide no means of demonstrating any genetic component whatsoever, except for tenuous arguments such as advanced paternal age. Molecular biology may help although the methods may be tedious; if there is an epistatic gene that may mask the trait, the logic is more tractable, though complex. (05 Mar 2000) |
| dominant oncogene | <genetics, molecular biology, oncology> A gene that stimulates cell proliferation and can drastically increase the risk of cancer development when present in a single copy. (09 Oct 1997) |
| dominant species | <biology, ecology, zoology> For each stratum, dominant species are those that, when ranked in descending rank order and cumulatively totaled, immediately exceed 50 percent of the total dominance measure, plus any additional species comprising 20 percent or more of the total dominance measure for the stratum. (09 Oct 1997) |
| dominant trait | An outstanding mental or physical characteristic. See: dominance of traits. (05 Mar 2000) |
| kidney, polycystic, autosomal dominant | A genetic disorder with autosomal dominant inheritance characterised by multiple cysts in both kidneys and progressive deterioration of renal function. It is usually caused by a mutant gene at the pkd1 locus on the short arm of chromosome 16, though mutations elsewhere in the genome can also cause the disease. The age of onset of symptoms varies widely. (12 Dec 1998) |
| adhesion structures linked tyrosine kinase | <enzyme> Isolated from mouse embryonic stem cells Registry number: EC 2.7.1.- Synonym: hyk protein (26 Jun 1999) |
| benzylviologen-linked aldehyde oxidoreductase | <enzyme> A coenzyme a-independent tungsten-containing aldehyde oxidoreductase; from desulfovibrio gigas; n-terminal amino acid sequence given in first source Registry number: EC 1.2.7.- Synonym: bv-aldh (26 Jun 1999) |
| recessive, x-linked | A gene on the X chromosome that expresses itself only when there is no different gene present at that locus (spot on the chromosome). For example, duchenne muscular dystrophy (dmd) is an x-linked recessive disorder. A dmd boy has the dmd gene on his sole x chromosome (and so is said to be hemizgous for dmd). Although it is much rarer, a girl can have dmd (by several different means as, for example, if she has the dmd gene on both her x chromosomes and so is homozygous for dmd). (12 Dec 1998) |
| x-linked | On the X chromosome. Linked in genetics does not mean merely associated. An x-linked gene travels with the x chromosome and therefore is part of the x chromosome. (12 Dec 1998) |
| X linked disease | <disease, genetics> A genetic or inherited disease whose controlling gene or at least part of the relevant genome is carried on an X chromosome, for example haemophilia. most known conditions are recessive and thus since males have only one X chromosome they will express any such recessive character. Few dominants are known and the homozygous states are very rare so that female expression of such diseases is uncommon. (18 Nov 1997) |
| X-linked gene | A gene located on an X chromosome. (05 Mar 2000) |
