| footprinting | <molecular biology, technique> A technique used to identify the binding site of, for example: a protein on a nucleic acid sequence. The basic principle is to carry out a very limited hydrolysis of the DNA with or without the protein complexed and then to compare the digestion products. If a cleavage site is masked by the bound protein then the pattern of fragments when protein is present will be different and it is possible to work out, by a series of such procedures, exactly where the protein binds.

| foot-and-mouth disease |
Foot-and-mouth disease (FMD), sometimes called hoof-and-mouth disease, is a highly contagious but non-fatal viral disease of cattle and pigs. It can also infect deer, goats, sheep, and other animals with cloven hooves, as well as elephants, rats, and hedgehogs. Horses are not susceptible to FMD. Humans are affected only very rarely. The cause of FMD was first shown to be viral in 1897 by Friedrich Loeffler. ...

1. In micrometeorology, the region of ground that affects a turbulent flux measurement above the surface. Also known as the source-weight distribution function, the footprint can figuratively be described as the ensemble average field-of-view of a turbulent flux measurement. The footprint function is derived from a suitable model of turbulent transport. Alternately, an analogous footprint can be defined for scalar concentrations or for radiative fluxes. 2. ...
