Isotope effect

Biology; Biochemistry

The effect on kinetics of the substitution of one isotope for another in a bond that must be broken in a rate-limiting step (primary isotope effect); especially prominent in the case of cleavage of a ...

Disc-gel electrophoresis

Biology; Biochemistry

A technique for electrophoresis of single samples in an open-ended tube. The polyacrylamide stationary phase is polymerized in situ. During electrophoresis the ends of the tube are immersed in upper ...

Translocation channel

Biology; Biochemistry

A multi-protein structure through which other proteins may be exported across the plasma membrane (bacteria), or nascent proteins may pass from the cytosol into the endoplasmic reticulum or damaged ...

Combinatorial

Biology; Biochemistry

Descriptive of procedures or processes that generate a diversity of molecules (e.g. nucleic acid or protein sequences; related chemical structures) that can be screened for a desired property. The ...

Translocon

Biology; Biochemistry

A multi-protein structure through which other proteins may be exported across the plasma membrane (bacteria), or nascent proteins may pass from the cytosol into the endoplasmic reticulum or damaged ...

Triplet state

Biology; Biochemistry

An excited electronic state in which an electron is raised to a higher energy level and its spin is reversed, which prevents its easy collapse to the ground state. Such collapse is sometimes ...
