| post and core technique | Use of a metal casting, usually with a post in the pulp or root canal, designed to support and retain an artificial crown. (12 Dec 1998) |
| hepatitis B core antigen | <virology> (HBcAb, HBcAg), the antigen found in the core of the Dane particle (which is the complete virus) and also in hepatocyte nuclei in hepatitis B infections. (05 Mar 2000) |
| HIV core protein p24 | A major core protein of the human immunodeficiency virus encoded by the HIV gag gene. HIV-seropositive individuals mount a significant immune response to p24 and thus detection of antibodies to p24 is one basis for determining HIV infection by elisa and western blot assays. The protein is also being investigated as a potential HIV immunogen in vaccines. (12 Dec 1998) |
| disease, central core, of muscle | <anatomy> One of the conditions that produces 'floppy baby' syndrome. CCD causes hypotonia (floppiness) in the newborn baby, slowly progressive muscle weakness, and muscle cramps after exercise. Muscle biopsy shows a key diagnostic finding (absent mitochondria in the centre of many type I muscle fibres). CCD is inherited as a dominant trait. The CCD gene is on chromosome 19 (and involves ryanodine receptor-1). (12 Dec 1998) |

| alpha,alpha-trehalose phosphorylase | <enzyme> Chemical name: alpha-d-glucopyranosyl-alpha-d-glucopyranose orthophosphate glucosyltransferase Registry number: EC 2.4.1.64 Synonym: trehalose phosphorylase (26 Jun 1999) |
| alpha-dextrin endo-1,6-alpha-glucosidase | <enzyme> An enzyme with action similar to that of isoamylase; it cleaves 1,6-alpha-glucosidic linkages in pullalan, amylopectin, and glycogen, and in alpha-and beta-amylase limit-dextrins of amylopectin and glycogen. Compare: isoamylase. Synonym: limit dextrinase, pullulanase, R enzyme. (05 Mar 2000) |
