|---|---|
| cloning, molecular | The insertion of recombinant DNA molecules from prokaryotic and/or eukaryotic sources into a replicating vehicle, such as a plasmid or virus vector, and the introduction of the resultant hybrid molecules into recipient cells without altering the viability of those cells. (12 Dec 1998) |
| models, molecular | Models used experimentally or theoretically to study molecular shape, electronic properties, or interactions; includes analogous molecules, computer-generated graphics, and mechanical structures. (12 Dec 1998) |
| molecular | <chemistry> Of, pertaining to or composed of molecules: a very small mass of matter. (18 Nov 1997) |
| molecular behaviour | <psychology> Behaviour described in small response units rather than larger ones; a specific response. Compare: molar behaviour. (05 Mar 2000) |
| molecular biophysics | Biophysics concerned with membrane processes, conformational and configurational properties of macromolecules, bioelectrical phenomena, etc. (05 Mar 2000) |
| molecular chaperones | A family of cellular proteins that mediate the correct assembly or disassembly of other polypeptides, and in some cases their assembly into oligomeric structures, but which are not components of those final structures. It is believed that chaperone proteins assist polypeptides to self-assemble by inhibiting alternative assembly pathways that produce nonfunctional structures. Some classes of molecular chaperones are the nucleoplasmins, the chaperonins, the heat-shock proteins 70, and the heat-shock proteins 90. (12 Dec 1998) |
| molecular clock | This term has two separate uses. 1. <molecular biology> The rate of fixation of mutations in DNA and thus times the rate of genetic diversification. 2. <cell biology> A biological system capable of maintaining up a timing rhythm or pulse. All such clocks are thought to be entrained by a natural oscillator such as the diurnal rhythm. (18 Nov 1997) |
| molecular cloning | <molecular biology> The biological amplification of a specific DNA sequence through mitotic division of a host cell into which it has been transformed or transfected. (09 Oct 1997) |
| molecular conformation | The characteristic three-dimensional shape of a molecule. (12 Dec 1998) |
| molecular disease | A disease in which the manifestations are due to alterations in molecular structure and function. (05 Mar 2000) |
| molecular dispersed solution | A colloidal solution in which the dispersed phase can be concentrated by centrifugation. Synonym: dispersion colloid, molecular dispersed solution. (05 Mar 2000) |
| molecular dispersion | Dispersion in which the dispersed phase consists of individual molecules; if the molecules are of less than colloidal size, the result is a true solution. (05 Mar 2000) |
| molecular dissociation theory | A theory, pertaining to colour vision, that gray is the earliest of colour sensations, from which are derived, by molecular change, two paired substances that, respectively, detect yellow and blue, and that the yellow gives rise to paired substances for detection of red and green. Synonym: Ladd-Franklin theory. (05 Mar 2000) |
| molecular distillation | Distillation in high vacuum, intended to make possible use of low temperatures to minimise damage to thermally labile molecules that would be decomposed by boiling at higher temperatures. (05 Mar 2000) |
