| DNA-RNA hybrid | Double-stranded polynucleic acids in which one strand is DNA and the other strand is the complementary RNA; formed during transcription and during multiplication of oncogenic RNA viruses. (05 Mar 2000) |
|---|---|
| DNA-RNA hybridisation | <molecular biology> A type of hybridisation. In this case, a strand of DNA is joined with a complementary strand of RNA to form a double-stranded molecule (or one which is partly double-stranded, if one of the original single strands is shorter than the other). (09 Oct 1997) |
| informational RNA | mRNA |
| template RNA | mRNA |
| T loop of RNA | <molecular biology> The T loop of tRNA is the region of the molecule that is responsible for ribosome recognition. (16 Dec 1997) |
| transfer RNA | <molecular biology> A nucleic acid found in all living cells. Plays a role in transferring information from DNA to the protein-forming system of the cell. (16 Dec 1997) |
| 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) |
| ui RNA | <molecular biology> A common type of small nuclear RNA (165 bases long) that serves to splice and/or remove exons of messenger RNA. (09 Oct 1997) |
| UTP-RNA uridylyltransferase | <enzyme> Catalyses addition of single ump residue from utp to 3'-end of RNA primer Registry number: EC 2.7.7.- Synonym: terminal uridylyltransferase, ump transferase (26 Jun 1999) |
| 16S RNA pseudouridine 516 synthase | <enzyme> Acts only on uridine 516 of e. Coli 16s RNA; amino acid sequence given in first source Registry number: EC 5.4.99.- Synonym: psi516 synthase, rsua gene product (26 Jun 1999) |
| acinar cell tumour | A solid and cystic tumour of the pancreas, occurring in young women; tumour cells contain zymogen granules. (05 Mar 2000) |
| acute splenic tumour | Acute splenitis, enlargement, and softening of the spleen, usually due to bacteraemia or severe bacterial toxaemia. (05 Mar 2000) |
| adenoid tumour | Adenoma, or neoplasm with glandlike spaces. (05 Mar 2000) |
| adenomatoid odontogenic tumour | A benign epithelial odontogenic tumour appearing radiographically as a well-circumscribed radiolucent-radiopaque lesion usually surrounding the crown of an impacted tooth in an adolescent or young adult; characterised histologically by columnar cells organised in a duct-like configuration interspersed with spindle-shaped cells and amyloid-like deposition that gradually undergoes dystrophic calcification. Synonym: adenoameloblastoma, ameloblastic adenomatoid tumour. (05 Mar 2000) |
