| high energy phosphate bond | See: high energy phosphates. (05 Mar 2000) |
|---|---|
| high energy phosphates | Those phosphate's that, on hydrolysis, yield an unusually large amount of energy; e.g., nucleotide polyphosphates such as ATP, enol phosphate's such as phosphoenolpyruvate. See: high energy compounds. Synonym: energy-rich phosphates. (05 Mar 2000) |
| high-energy shock waves | Compression waves of large amplitude, across which density, pressure, and particle velocity change drastically. (12 Dec 1998) |
| psychic energy | In psychoanalysis, a hypothetical mental force, analogous to the physical concept of energy, which enables and vitalises an individual's psychological activity. See: libido. Synonym: psychic force. (05 Mar 2000) |
| serotonin-binding protein kinase | <enzyme> An aspect of protein kinases EC 2.7.1.37 Registry number: EC 2.7.1.- Synonym: sbp kinase (26 Jun 1999) |
| sex hormone-binding globulin | A glycoprotein migrating as a beta-globulin. Its molecular weight, 52,000 or 95,000-115,000, indicates that it exists as a dimer. The protein binds testosterone, dihydrotestosterone, and estradiol in the plasma. Changes in its concentration significantly affect the ratio of unbound (biologically active) testosterone to estradiol in plasma. (12 Dec 1998) |
| sex steroid-binding globulin | A protein that transports 65% of the testosterone in plasma. Synonym: sex steroid-binding globulin. (05 Mar 2000) |
| short rotation energy plantation | Plantings established and managed under short-rotation intensive culture practices. (05 Dec 1998) |
| single stranded binding protein | <protein> SSB's are proteins responsiblefor holding the replication fork of DNAopen while polymerases readthe templates. (09 Oct 1997) |
| small scale energy loan program | (SELP) A low-cost loan and technical assistance program administered by the Oregon Department of Energy. (05 Dec 1998) |
| solar energy | Energy transmitted from the sun in the form of electromagnetic radiation. (12 Dec 1998) |
| nucleotide binding fold | Protein motif consisting of a fold or pocket with certain conserved residues, required for the binding of nucleotides. (18 Nov 1997) |
| nutritional energy | The dynamics of nutrition or metabolism. Synonym: nutritional energy. Origin: tropho-+ G. Dynamis, power (05 Mar 2000) |
| Department of Energy | Department within the executive branch of the U.S. Government (at the cabinet level) which has managed and overseen federally-sponsored energy research. It was formed in 1977 from the Energy Research and Development Administration, and the Atomic Enegy Commission. Acronym: DOE (10 Nov 1998) |
| DNA binding protein | <molecular biology> Proteins that interact with DNA, typically to pack or modify the DNA for example histones or to regulate gene expression, transcription factors. Among those proteins that recognise specific DNA sequences, there are a number of characteristic conserved motifs believed to be essential for specificity. (18 Nov 1997) |
