  2. Myofibril - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Myofibril

    The protein complex composed of actin and myosin is sometimes referred to as actomyosin. In striated skeletal and cardiac muscle tissue the actin and myosin filaments each have a specific and constant length on the order of a few micrometers, far less than the length of the elongated muscle cell (a few millimeters in the case of human skeletal ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Myofilament

    The protein complex composed of actin and myosin, contractile proteins, is sometimes referred to as actomyosin.In striated skeletal and cardiac muscle, the actin and myosin filaments each have a specific and constant length in the order of a few micrometers, far less than the length of the elongated muscle cell (up to several centimeters in some skeletal muscle cells).

  4. MCM10 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MCM10

    The protein complex formed by MCM proteins is a key component of the pre-replication complex (pre-RC) and it may be involved in the formation of replication forks and in the recruitment of other DNA replication related proteins. This protein can interact with MCM2 and MCM6, as well as with the origin recognition protein ORC2.

  5. Muscle cell - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Muscle_cell

    The unusual microscopic anatomy of a muscle cell gave rise to its terminology. The cytoplasm in a muscle cell is termed the sarcoplasm; the smooth endoplasmic reticulum of a muscle cell is termed the sarcoplasmic reticulum; and the cell membrane in a muscle cell is termed the sarcolemma. [9]

  6. Sarcoplasm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sarcoplasm

    Sarcoplasm is the cytoplasm of a muscle cell.It is comparable to the cytoplasm of other cells, but it contains unusually large amounts of glycogen (a polymer of glucose), myoglobin, a red-colored protein necessary for binding oxygen molecules that diffuse into muscle fibers, and mitochondria.

  7. Genetic testing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Genetic_testing

    Genetic testing, also known as DNA testing, is used to identify changes in DNA sequence or chromosome structure. Genetic testing can also include measuring the results of genetic changes, such as RNA analysis as an output of gene expression , or through biochemical analysis to measure specific protein output.

  8. Minichromosome maintenance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Minichromosome_Maintenance

    The minichromosome maintenance protein complex (MCM) is a DNA helicase essential for genomic DNA replication. Eukaryotic MCM consists of six gene products, Mcm2–7, which form a heterohexamer. Eukaryotic MCM consists of six gene products, Mcm2–7, which form a heterohexamer.

  9. DNA profiling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DNA_profiling

    RFLP stands for restriction fragment length polymorphism and, in terms of DNA analysis, describes a DNA testing method which utilizes restriction enzymes to "cut" the DNA at short and specific sequences throughout the sample. To start off processing in the laboratory, the sample has to first go through an extraction protocol, which may vary ...
