| prostaglandin endoperoxides, synthetic | Synthetic compounds that are analogs of the naturally occurring prostaglandin endoperoxides and that mimic their pharmacologic and physiologic activities. They are usually more stable than the naturally occurring compounds. (12 Dec 1998) |
|---|---|
| prostaglandins a, synthetic | Analogs or derivatives of prostaglandin a that do not occur naturally in the body. They do not include the product of the chemical synthesis of hormonal pga. (12 Dec 1998) |
| prostaglandins e, synthetic | Analogs or derivatives of prostaglandins e that do not occur naturally in the body. They do not include the product of the chemical synthesis of hormonal pge. (12 Dec 1998) |
| prostaglandins f, synthetic | Analogs or derivatives of prostaglandins f that do not occur naturally in the body. They do not include the product of the chemical synthesis of hormonal pgf. (12 Dec 1998) |
| prostaglandins, synthetic | Compounds obtained by chemical synthesis that are analogs or derivatives of naturally occurring prostaglandins and that have similar activity. (12 Dec 1998) |
| hormones, synthetic | Synthetic chemical compounds that mimic the activity of hormones produced in the body, but differ in structure from naturally occurring hormones. (12 Dec 1998) |
| synthetic | Relating to or made by synthesis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| synthetic chemistry | The formation or building up of complex compounds by uniting the more simple ones. (05 Mar 2000) |
| synthetic dyes | Organic dye compounds originally derived from coal-tar derivatives; presently produced by synthesis from benzene and its derivatives; examples include eosin, methylene blue, and fluorescein. (05 Mar 2000) |
| oestrogens, synthetic | Compounds obtained by chemical synthesis which possess oestrogenic activity, but differ in structure from naturally occurring oestrogens. (12 Dec 1998) |
| acceptor RNA | rNA |
| antisense RNA | <molecular biology> A complementary RNA sequence that binds to (and thus blocks the transcription of) a naturally-occuring (sense) messenger RNA molecule. These proteins can be used to selectively turn off production of certain proteins or block viral genetic instructions, by marking them for destruction by cellular enzymes, in order to prevent the building of new virus or the infection of new cells. (09 Oct 1997) |
| bacteriophage T3 RNA polymerase | <enzyme> Used for the rapid generation of strand-specific RNA molecules that can be used for the identification of genes in hybridization experiments Registry number: EC 2.7.7.- Synonym: t3 RNA polymerase (26 Jun 1999) |
| cap II RNA(nucleoside-2'-)methyltransferase | <enzyme> Converts cap i-terminated mRNA to cap II-terminated mRNA Registry number: EC 2.1.1.- Synonym: cap II methylase (26 Jun 1999) |
| cap I RNA (nucleoside-2'-)methyltransferase | <enzyme> Converts cap 0-terminated mRNA to cap i-terminated mRNA Registry number: EC 2.1.1.- Synonym: cap I methylase (26 Jun 1999) |
