| expression | <molecular biology> The process by which a gene's coded information is converted into the structures present and operating in the cell. Expressed genes include those that are transcribed into mRNA and then translated into protein and those that are transcribed into RNA but not translated into protein (for example, transfer and ribosomal RNAs). (06 Aug 1998) |
|---|---|
| expression cloning | <molecular biology> A vector that results in the expression of inserted DNA sequences when propagated in a suitable host cell, i.e. The protein coded for by the DNA is synthesised by the host's system. (06 Aug 1998) |
| expression library | <molecular biology> A library of DNA fragments which was created with an expression vector so that any genes present in the library are expressed. (09 Oct 1997) |
| expression-linked copy | <molecular biology> One of many different versions of the variable surface glycoprotein gene of the trypanosome (a parasitic protozoan which causes the disease African sleeping sickness), refers to whichever one of them is currently being expressed on the outer surface of the trypanosome. (09 Oct 1997) |
| expression site | The location in the genome of the gene for the variable surface glycoprotein that is currently being expressed (an expression-linked copy) by the trypanosome (a parasitic protozoan which causes the disease African sleeping sickness). most of these sites are near the ends, or telomeres, of a chromosome. (09 Oct 1997) |
| expression system | <molecular biology> Combination of an expression vector, its cloned DNA, and the host for the vector that provide a context to allow foreign gene function in a host cell, that is, produce proteins at a high level. (13 Nov 1997) |
| expression vector | <molecular biology> A cloning vector that contains the necessary regulatory sequences to allow transcription and translation of a cloned gene or genes and thus transcribe and clone DNA. (13 Nov 1997) |
| facial expression | Observable changes of expression in the face in response to emotional stimuli. (12 Dec 1998) |
| acute bacterial endocarditis | A type of bacterial endocarditis caused by pyogenic organisms such as haemolytic streptococci or staphylococci. (05 Mar 2000) |
| adhesins, bacterial | Cell-surface components or appendages of bacteria that facilitate adhesion (bacterial adhesion) to other cells or to inanimate surfaces. most fimbriae (fimbriae, bacterial) of gram-negative bacteria function as adhesins, but in many cases it is a minor subunit protein at the tip of the fimbriae that is the actual adhesin. In gram-positive bacteria, a protein or polysaccharide surface layer serves as the specific adhesin. (12 Dec 1998) |
| antibodies, bacterial | Immunoglobulins induced by substances elaborated by bacteria that have an antigenic activity. (12 Dec 1998) |
| antigens, bacterial | Substances elaborated by bacteria that have antigenic activity. (12 Dec 1998) |
| atypical bacterial forms | Microorganisms that have undergone greater changes than normal in morphology, physiology, or cultural characteristics. (12 Dec 1998) |
| bacteria-free stage of bacterial endocarditis | Endocarditis described prior to the antibiotic era and presumably due to spontaneous healing of the bacterial vegetations. (05 Mar 2000) |
| bacterial | <microbiology> Bacteria are group of micro-organisms that are a single cell approximately 1 micron in transverse diameter. Some bacteria cause disease in man, requiring treatment with an antibiotic. (27 Sep 1997) |
