| initiation | 1. The first stage of tumour induction by a carcinogen; subtle alteration of cells by exposure to a carcinogenic agent so that they are likely to form a tumour upon subsequent exposure to a promoting agent (promotion). 2. Starting point of replication or translation in macromolecule biosynthesis. 3. Start of chemical or enzymatic reaction. (05 Mar 2000) |
|---|---|
| initiation codon | The codon 5' AUG in mRNA, at which polypeptide synthesis is started. It is recognised by formylmethionyl tRNA in bacteria and by methionyl tRNA in eukaryotes. (18 Nov 1997) |
| initiation complex | Complex between mRNA, 30S ribosomal subunit and formyl methionyl tRNA that requires GTP and initiation factors to function. (18 Nov 1997) |
| initiation factor | One of several soluble proteins involved in the initiation of protein or RNA synthesis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| initiation factors | The set of catalytic proteins required, in addition to mRNA and ribosomes, for protein synthesis to begin. In bacteria three distinct proteins have been identified: if 1 (8 kD), IF 2 (75 kD) and IF 3 (30 kD). at least 6-8 proteins have been identified in eukaryotes. IFs 1 and 2 enhance the binding of initiator tRNA to the initiation complex. (18 Nov 1997) |
| initiation tRNA | TRNA in prokaryotes containing a formyl-methionyl residue that initiates translation. Synonym: formyl-methionyl-tRNA, starter tRNA. (05 Mar 2000) |
| peptide chain initiation | The process whereby the formation of a peptide chain is started. This process requires (1) the 30s subunit, (2) the mRNA coding for the polypeptide to be made, (3) met-trnai, (4) initiation factors, and (5) GTP. (12 Dec 1998) |
|---|---|
| peptide initiation factors | Protein factors uniquely required during the initiation phase of protein synthesis. (12 Dec 1998) |
| tumour initiation | <cell biology, oncology> First stage of tumour development. See: tumour progression. (18 Nov 1997) |
| initiation |
a formal entry into an organization or position or office; "his initiation into the club"; "he was ordered to report for induction into the army"; "he gave a speech as part of his installation into the hall of fame" the act of starting something for the first time; introducing something new; "she looked forward to her initiation as an adult"; "the foundation of a new scientific society"; "he regards the fork as a modern introduction" knowledgeability: wisdom as evidenced by the possession of knowledge; "his knowledgeability impressed me"; "his dullness was due to lack of initiation" trigger: an act that sets in motion some course of events
