| early latent syphilis | Infection with Treponema pallidum, the organism of syphilis, after the primary and secondary phases have subsided, during the first year after infection, before any manifestations of tertiary syphilis have appeared. (05 Mar 2000) |
|---|---|
| early neonatal death | Death of a liveborn infant occurring less than 7 completed days (168 hours) from the time of birth, late neonatal death, death of a liveborn infant occurring after 7 completed days of age but before 28 completed days. (05 Mar 2000) |
| early-phase response | Prompt onset of symptoms following an antigenic stimulus. (05 Mar 2000) |
| early posttraumatic epilepsy | Seizures beginning within one week after severe head injury. (05 Mar 2000) |
| early reaction | Local or generalised response that begins within a few minutes to about an hour after exposure to an antigen to which the individual has been sensitised. See: skin test, wheal-and-erythema reaction. Synonym: early reaction. (05 Mar 2000) |
| early receptor potential | A voltage arising across the eye from a charge displacement within photoreceptor pigment, in response to an intense flash of light. (05 Mar 2000) |
| early region | <molecular biology> Part of a viral genome in which early genes genes that are transcribed and expressed early during infection of a cell are clustered. (18 Nov 1997) |
| early seizure | A seizure occurring within one week after craniocerebral trauma. (05 Mar 2000) |
| early seral species | <plant biology> Shrubs, such as ceanothus, and hardwoods, usually in tree form, such as red alder, bitter cherry and big leaf maple. These species start growing in natural succession soon after a disturbance (fire or logging). (05 Dec 1998) |
| early stage breast cancer | <oncology> Cancer is confined to the breast and has not spread to other sites in the body. (16 Dec 1997) |
| early syphilis | Primary, secondary, or early latent syphilis, before any tertiary manifestations have appeared. (05 Mar 2000) |
| 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.

| 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) |
