| receptors, sigma | A class of cell surface receptors recognised by its pharmacological profile. Sigma receptors were originally considered to be opioid receptors because they bind certain synthetic opioids. However they also interact with a variety of other psychoactive drugs, and their endogenous ligand is not known (although they can react to certain endogenous steroids). Sigma receptors are found in the immune, endocrine, and nervous systems, and in some peripheral tissues. (12 Dec 1998) |
|---|---|
| sigma | The 18th letter of the Greek alphabet, σ. (05 Mar 2000) |
| sigma bond | <chemistry> A bond formed from the overlap of either two s-orbitals or two hybrid orbitals such as sp3 or sp2 orbitals. (09 Jan 1998) |
| sigma effect | The decrease in apparent viscosity that occurs when a suspension, such as blood, is made to flow through a tube of smaller diameter; observed in tubes less than about 0.3 mm in diameter. Synonym: sigma effect. (05 Mar 2000) |
| sigma factor | Initiation factor (86 kD) that binds to E. Coli DNA dependent RNA polymerase and promotes attachment to specific initiation sites on DNA. Following attachment, the sigma factor is released. (18 Nov 1997) |
| sigma peptide | A peptide with one end bonded to a point within the chain, usually by means of the disulfide group of a cystine residue, so that only one end of the peptide is free; so called since the peptide chain has then the rough shape of the Greek letter sigma; e.g., oxytocin. (05 Mar 2000) |
| alpha particle | <physics> A radioactive particle made up of two protons and two neutrons, these particles are created by the decay of a radioactive material or by nuclear bombardment, and they are the same as the nucleus of a helium-4 atom. (09 Oct 1997) |
| beta particle | <physics, radiobiology> An electron or positron emitted from a radioactive nucleus during beta decay. (09 Oct 1997) |
| genes, intracisternal a-particle | A family of retrovirus-like genetic elements coding for virus-like particles found regularly in early rodent embryos (2-cell to blastocyst stage), but which, under certain circumstances such as DNA hypomethylation, are transcribed in a wide variety of neoplasms, including plasmacytomas, neuroblastomas, rhabdomyosarcomas, teratocarcinomas, and colon carcinomas. (12 Dec 1998) |
| particle | <chemistry> A tiny mass of material. Origin: L. Particula, dim. Of pars = part (18 Nov 1997) |
| particle accelerators | Devices which accelerate electrically charged atomic or subatomic particles, such as electrons, protons or ions, to high velocities so they have high kinetic energy. (12 Dec 1998) |
| particle fluence | <chemistry, radiobiology> at a given point in space, the sum of energies, the number of particles or photons incident during a given time interval on a small sphere centreed at that point, divided by the cross-sectional area of that sphere. It is identical with the time integral of the particle flux density. (16 Dec 1997) |
| charged particle | <radiobiology> A particle which carries a positive or negative electrical charge. In plasma physics, this typically means an ionised atom or molecule, or an electron. (09 Oct 1997) |
| core particle | The group of eight histones (protein molecules which act like spools for DNA to wrap around so that it can be compacted to fit within the nucleus) in the middle of a nucleosome (which is the histone core particle plus the small segment of DNA wrapped around it). (09 Oct 1997) |
| proteinaceous infectious particle | A proposed pathogen composedonly of protein with no detectable nucleic acid and which is responsible for Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease and kuru inhumans and scrapie in sheep. (09 Oct 1997) |
