| trypsin inhibitor, kazal pancreatic | <chemical> A pancreatic trypsin inhibitor common to all mammals. It is secreted with the zymogens into the pancreatic juice. It is a protein composed of 56 amino acid residues and is different in amino acid composition and physiological activity from the kunitz bovine pancreatic trypsin inhibitor (aprotinin). Chemical name: Trypsin inhibitor, pancreatic secretory (12 Dec 1998) |

| trypsin inhibitor, kunitz soybean | <chemical> A high-molecular-weight protein (approximately 22,500) containing 198 amino acid residues. It is a strong inhibitor of trypsin and human plasmin. Pharmacological action: trypsin inhibitors. Chemical name: Trypsin inhibitor, Kunitz soybean (12 Dec 1998) |
| familial lipoprotein lipase inhibitor | An inhibitor found in certain individuals that inhibits lipoprotein lipase resulting in accumulation of chylomicrons, VLDL, and triacylglycerols; similar in symptoms to familial lipoprotein lipase deficiency. (05 Mar 2000) |
| lipoprotein-associated coagulation inhibitor | Formerly known as anticonvertin; a protein that inhibits the extrinsic pathway of coagulation by binding to the tissue factor III-factor VII-Calcium-factor Xa complex. (05 Mar 2000) |
| lupus coagulation inhibitor | An antiphospholipid antibody found in association with systemic lupus erythematosus (lupus erythematosus, systemic), antiphospholipid syndrome, and in a variety of other diseases as well as in healthy individuals. In vitro, the antibody interferes with the conversion of prothrombin to thrombin and prolongs the partial thromboplastin time. In vivo, it exerts a procoagulant effect resulting in thrombosis mainly in the larger veins and arteries. It further causes obstetrical complications, including foetal death and spontaneous abortion, as well as a variety of haematologic and neurologic complications. (12 Dec 1998) |
| age-specific rate | A rate for a specified age group, in which the numerator and denominator refer to the same age group. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Bensley's specific granules | Granule's in the cells of the islands of Langerhans in the pancreas. (05 Mar 2000) |
| brain-specific kinase | <enzyme> Expressed specifically in brain; member of the eph/elk receptor-like kinase family; mw 105 kD; may represent murine homolog of chicken cek7 receptor-like kinase; amino acid sequence given in first source Registry number: EC 2.7.1.- Synonym: bsk tyrosine kinase (26 Jun 1999) |
| galactosyl-1-3-N-acetylgalactosaminyl-specific 2,6-sialyltransferase | <enzyme> Genbank x77775 Registry number: EC 2.4.99.- Synonym: galbeta1,3galnac 2,6-sialyltransferase, st6galnac II (26 Jun 1999) |
| glycoprotein hormone-specific N-acetylgalactosamine transferase | <enzyme> Transfers galnac to the terminal glcnac moieties of glcnac2man3glcnac2asn Registry number: EC 2.4.1.- Synonym: ghs-acgalnh2 transferase, glycoprotein hormone galnac transferase, glycoprotein hormone - n-acetylgalactosaminyltransferase (26 Jun 1999) |
| retina-specific amine oxidase | <enzyme> Genbank d88213 Registry number: EC 1.4.- Synonym: rao enzyme, human (26 Jun 1999) |
| Gomori's non-specific acid phosphatase stain | <technique> A method in which formalin-fixed frozen sections are incubated in a substrate containing sodium beta-glycerophosphate and lead nitrate at pH 5.0; the insoluble lead phosphate produced is treated with ammonium sulfide to give a black lead sulfide. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Gomori's non-specific alkaline phosphatase stain | <technique> A calcium-cobalt sulfide method using frozen sections or cold acetone-or formalin-fixed paraffin sections, plus sodium beta-glycerophosphate as a substrate at pH 9.0 to 9.5 with Mg++ as activator; calcium ions precipitate the liberated phosphate, cobalt salt replaces the calcium phosphate, and ammonium sulfide converts the product to a black cobalt sulfide. (05 Mar 2000) |
| group-specific protease | <enzyme> A serine protease, obtained from rat small intestine, which preferentially inactivates the apo forms of certain pyridoxal phosphate requiring enzymes Registry number: EC 3.4.21.- (26 Jun 1999) |
| RNA, transfer, amino acid-specific | A group of transfer rnas which are specific for carrying each one of the 20 amino acids to the ribosome in preparation for protein synthesis. (12 Dec 1998) |
