| bacteriophage lambda | <microbiology, virology> A bacteriophage, or virus which infects bacteria, that infects E. Coli. It has a complex set of regulatory mechanisms to determine whether it will quietly insert its DNA into the bacterial genome to become dormant and to be reproduced whenever the bacterium reproduces (to lysogenize), or whether it will hijack the bacterium's cellular machinery to reproduce itself and prepare to infect more bacteria, causing the bacterium to self-destruct shortly after infection (to lyse). Lambda is particularly useful to geneticists because parts of it can be used to introduce foreign DNA into the bacterial genome, it is a cloning vector. (09 Oct 1997) |

| immunoglobulins, lambda-chain | One of the light chains of the immunoglobulins with a molecular weight of approximately 22 kD. They constitute about 40% of all light chains and can be recognised serologically as well as by their specific amino acid sequence. (12 Dec 1998) |
| exonuclease lambda | An exonuclease enzyme that removes nucleotides from the 5' end of duplex DNA which have 5'-phosphate groups attached to them. (09 Oct 1997) |
| lambda | 1. The name of the Greek letter lambda, corresponding with the English letter L, l. 2. <anatomy> The point of junction of the sagittal and lambdoid sutures of the skull. <zoology> Lambda moth, a moth so called from a mark on its wings, resembling the Greek letter. Origin: NL, fr. Gr. Source: Websters Dictionary (01 Mar 1998) |
| lambda bacteriophage | <virology> Bacterial DNA virus, first isolated from E. Coli. Its structure is similar to that of the T even phages. Lambda genetic material consists of a double-stranded DNA molecule with 5' twelve-base-pair sticky ends, known as cos sites, which permit circularisation of the DNA molecule. It shows a lytic cycle and a lysogenic cycle and studies on the control of these alternative cycles have been very important for our understanding of the regulation of gene transcription. It is used as a cloning vector, accommodating fragments of DNA up to 15 kilobase pairs long. For larger pieces, the cosmid vector was constructed from its ends. (14 Mar 2000) |
| lambda chain | <immunology> Although light chains are found in many multimeric proteins, L chain usually refers to the light chains of immunoglobulins. These are of 22 kD and of one of two types, kappa or lambda. A single immunoglobulin has identical light chains (2 kappa or 2 lamda). Light chains have one variable and one constant region. There are isotype variants of both kappa and lamda. (25 Jun 1999) |

| lambda sign | <radiology> Small ascending aorta: same size as right and left coronary aa., hypoplastic left heart syndrome (12 Dec 1998) |
| acromial angle | The prominent angle at the junction of the posterior and lateral borders of the acromion. Synonym: angulus acromialis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| acute angle | Any angle less than 90 |
| acute angle closure glaucoma | <ophthalmology> An increase in pressure within the anterior chamber of the eye. There are two forms of glaucoma: acute angle closure and open angle glaucoma. (27 Sep 1997) |
| adjacent angle | An angle with a line in common with another angle. (05 Mar 2000) |
| alpha angle | The angle between the visual and optic axes as they cross at the nodal point of the eye, the angle between the visual line and the major axis of the corneal ellipse. (05 Mar 2000) |
| alveolar angle | The angle between the horizontal plane and a line connecting the base of the nasal spine and the middle point of the projection of the alveolus of the maxilla. (05 Mar 2000) |
| angle | 1. To fish with an angle (fishhook), or with hook and line. 2. <geometry> The figure made by two lines which meet. The difference of direction of two lines. In the lines meet, the point of meeting is the vertex of the angle. 3. A projecting or sharp corner; an angular fragment. "Though but an angle reached him of the stone." (Dryden) Curvilineal angle, one formed by two curved lines. External angles, angles formed by the sides of any right-lined figure, when the sides are produced or lengthened. Internal angles, those which are within any right-lined figure. Mixtilineal angle, one formed by a right line with a curved line. Oblique angle, one acute or obtuse, in opposition to a right angle. Obtuse angle, one greater than a right angle, or more than 90 deg . Rectilineal or Right-lined angle, one formed by two right lines. Right angle, one formed by a right line falling on another perpendicularly, or an angle of 90 deg (measured by a quarter circle). Solid angle, the figure formed by the meeting of three or more plane angles at one point. Spherical angle, one made by the meeting of two arcs of great circles, which mutually cut one another on the surface of a globe or sphere. Visual angle, the angle formed by two rays of light, or two straight lines drawn from the extreme points of an object to the center of the eye. 4. <astronomy> A name given to four of the twelve astrological houses. Origin: F. Angle, L. Angulus angle, corner; akin to uncus hook, Gr. Bent, crooked, angular, a bend or hollow, AS. Angel hook, fish-hook, G. Angel, and F. Anchor. (16 Mar 1998) |
