| nuclear transplantation | <procedure> Experimental approach in study of nucleo cytoplasmic interactions, in which a nucleus is transferred from one cell to the cytoplasm (which may be anucleate) of a second. (18 Nov 1997) |
|---|---|
| nuclear transport | <cell biology> Passage of molecules in and out of the nucleus, presumably via nuclear pores. Passage of proteins into the nucleus may depend on possession of a nuclear location sequence containing five consecutive positively charged residues PKKKRKV). (18 Nov 1997) |
| nuclear warfare | Warfare involving the use of nuclear weapons. (12 Dec 1998) |
| nucleolar-nuclear ratio | Ratio of volume of nucleolus to volume of nucleus, usually increased in malignant neoplasms. (05 Mar 2000) |
| internal nuclear layer of retina | The intermediate layer of neurons in the retina composed largely of bipolar cells. Synonym: internal nuclear layer of retina, stratum ganglionare retinae, stratum nucleare internum retinae. (05 Mar 2000) |
| epstein-barr virus nuclear antigens | Nuclear antigens encoded by epstein-barr virus genes. at least six nuclear antigens have been identified but their mechanism of action and role in B-cell transformation is still unknown. (12 Dec 1998) |
| external nuclear layer of retina | The outermost layer of the cerebral layer of retina, composed of the primary receptor cells of the retina; the stratum consists of two sublayers: 1) an external layer made up of the rods and cones, the photosensitive processes of the receptor cells, and 2) the external nuclear layer containing the cell bodies of these cells; the external limiting membrane forms a perforated supporting plate between the two sublayers; the name refers to the fact that the retinal receptor cells are a specialised form of (epithelial) ependyma cell and thus, in a sense, are comparable to the neuroepithelial cells (e.g., hair cells) of other sense organs. Synonym: external nuclear layer of retina, stratum neuroepitheliale retinae, stratum nucleare externum retinae. (05 Mar 2000) |
| U1 small nuclear RNA-(guanosine-N2)-methyltransferase | <enzyme> A trans-active non-small nuclear ribonucleoprotein; facilitates the formation of the m3g cap Registry number: EC 2.1.1.- Synonym: u1 snrna(g-n2)mtase (26 Jun 1999) |
| U6 small nuclear RNA methyltransferase | <enzyme> Methylates gamma-phosphate residues in rnas; distinct from u6 snrna n6-adenosine methyltranferase; mw 130 kD; from hela cells Registry number: EC 2.1.1.- Synonym: u6 snrna capping enzyme (26 Jun 1999) |
