| band neutrophil | <pathology> Immature neutrophils released from the bone marrow reserve in response to acute demand. (18 Nov 1997) |
|---|---|
| band of Giacomini | A slender whitish band, the attenuated anterior continuation of the dentate gyrus (fascia dentata), crossing transversally the surface of the recurved part of the uncus gyri parahippocampalis. Synonym: band of Giacomini, cauda fasciae dentatae, frenulum of Giacomini, tail of dentate gyrus. (05 Mar 2000) |
| band of Kaes-Bechterew | A band of horizontal myelinated fibres in the most superficial part of the third layer of the isocortex. Synonym: Bechterew's band, layer of Bechterew, line of Bechterew, line of Kaes. (05 Mar 2000) |
| band remover | <dentistry> A special plier which the orthodontist uses to remove bands from your teeth (08 Jan 1998) |
| band-shaped keratopathy | A horizontal, gray, interpalpebral opacity of the cornea that begins at the periphery and progresses centrally; occurs in hypercalcaemia, chronic iridocyclitis, and Still's disease. (05 Mar 2000) |
| base sequence | <molecular biology> The order of nucleotide bases in a DNA molecule. (09 Oct 1997) |
| base sequence analysis | <molecular biology> A method, sometimes automated, for determining the base sequence. (09 Oct 1997) |
| Bechterew's band | A band of horizontal myelinated fibres in the most superficial part of the third layer of the isocortex. Synonym: Bechterew's band, layer of Bechterew, line of Bechterew, line of Kaes. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Broca's diagonal band | A white fibre bundle descending in the precommissural septum toward the base of the forebrain, immediately rostral to the lamina terminalis; at the base, the bundle turns in the caudolateral direction; traveling through a ventral stratum of the innominate substance alongside the optic tract, it fades before reaching the amygdala. (05 Mar 2000) |
| canonical sequence | Of a series of related DNA, RNA or protein sequences, the sequence that reflects the most common choice of base or amino acid at each position. Areas of particularly good agreement often represent conserved functional domains. The generation of consensus sequences has been subjected to intensive mathematical analysis. (18 Nov 1997) |
| carbohydrate sequence | The sequence of carbohydrates within polysaccharides, glycoproteins, and glycolipids. (12 Dec 1998) |
| Mach's band | A relatively bright or dark band perceived in a zone where the luminance increases or decreases rapidly. (05 Mar 2000) |
| palindromic sequence | <molecular biology> Nucleic acid sequence that is identical to its complementary strand when each is read in the correct direction (e.g. TGGCCA). Palindromic sequences are often the recognition sites for restriction enzymes. Degenerate palindromes with internal mismatching can lead to loops or hairpins being formed (as in tRNA). (18 Nov 1997) |
| Maissiat's band | A fibrous reinforcement of the fascia lata on the lateral surface of the thigh, extending from the crest of the ilium to the lateral condyle of the tibia. Synonym: tractus iliotibialis, iliotibial band, Maissiat's band. (05 Mar 2000) |
| ventricular band of larynx | One of the pair of folds of mucous membrane stretching across the laryngeal cavity from the angle of the thyroid cartilage to the arytenoid cartilage; they enclose a space called the rima vestibuli or false glottis. Synonym: plica vestibularis, false vocal cord, plica ventricularis, ventricular band of larynx, ventricular fold. (05 Mar 2000) |
