  2. Carnitine-acylcarnitine translocase deficiency - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carnitine-acylcarnitine...

    Carnitine-acylcarnitine translocase deficiency is a rare, autosomal recessive metabolic disorder that prevents the body from converting long-chain fatty acids into energy, particularly during periods without food. [1]

  3. Gene conversion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gene_conversion

    Gene conversion is the process by which one DNA sequence replaces a homologous sequence such that the sequences become identical after the conversion. [1] Gene conversion can be either allelic, meaning that one allele of the same gene replaces another allele, or ectopic, meaning that one paralogous DNA sequence converts another.

  4. Transcription activator-like effector nuclease - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transcription_activator...

    Because this activity can vary depending on the species, cell type, target gene, and nuclease used, it should be monitored when designing new systems. A simple heteroduplex cleavage assay can be run which detects any difference between two alleles amplified by PCR. Cleavage products can be visualized on simple agarose gels or slab gel systems.

  5. 16S ribosomal RNA - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/16S_ribosomal_RNA

    The bacterial 16S gene contains nine hypervariable regions (V1–V9), ranging from about 30 to 100 base pairs long, that are involved in the secondary structure of the small ribosomal subunit. [30] The degree of conservation varies widely between hypervariable regions, with more conserved regions correlating to higher-level taxonomy and less ...

    By this action they protect DNA from cleavage by type II restriction enzymes that recognise the same sequence [citation needed] m5C methyltransferases (C-5 cytosine-specific DNA methylase) (C5 Mtase) are enzymes that specifically methylate the C-5 carbon of cytosines in DNA to produce C5-methylcytosine .

  7. Regulation of gene expression - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Regulation_of_gene_expression

    Regulation of gene expression, or gene regulation, [1] includes a wide range of mechanisms that are used by cells to increase or decrease the production of specific gene products (protein or RNA). Sophisticated programs of gene expression are widely observed in biology, for example to trigger developmental pathways, respond to environmental ...

  9. Enzyme induction and inhibition - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Enzyme_induction_and...

    Index inducer or just inducer predictably induce metabolism via a given pathway and are commonly used in prospective clinical drug-drug interaction studies. [2]Strong, moderate, and weak inducers are drugs that decreases the AUC of sensitive index substrates of a given metabolic pathway by ≥80%, ≥50% to <80%, and ≥20% to <50%, respectively.
