| transport number | The fraction of the total current carried through a solution by a particular type of ion present in that solution. (05 Mar 2000) |
| transport protein | <protein> A class of transmembrane protein that allows substances to cross plasma membranes far faster than would be possible by diffusion alone. A major class of transport proteins expend energy to move substances (active transport), these are transport ATPases. See: facilitated diffusion, symport, antiport. (18 Nov 1997) |
| transport tetany | An acute disease seen in cattle and sheep during and shortly after shipping; it appears most often in females in advanced pregnancy and is believed to be precipitated by stress, lack of food and water, and perhaps heat. Synonym: railroad disease, railroad sickness. (05 Mar 2000) |
| transport vesicle | <cell biology> Vesicles that transfer material from the rough endoplasmic reticulum to the receiving face of the Golgi. (18 Nov 1997) |
| facilitated transport | The protein-mediated transport of a compound across a biomembrane that is not ion-driven; a saturable transport system. Synonym: passive transport. (05 Mar 2000) |
