  2. Refeeding syndrome - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Refeeding_syndrome

    Intracellular movement of electrolytes occurs along with a fall in the serum electrolytes, including phosphate and magnesium. Levels of serum glucose may rise, and B 1 vitamin ( thiamine ) may fall. Abnormal heart rhythms are the most common cause of death from refeeding syndrome, with other significant risks including confusion, coma and ...

  3. Phosphogypsum - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phosphogypsum

    Phosphogypsum is a by-product from the production of phosphoric acid by treating phosphate ore with sulfuric acid according to the following reaction: Ca 5 (PO 4) 3 X + 5 H 2 SO 4 + 10 H 2 O → 3 H 3 PO 4 + 5 (CaSO 4 · 2 H 2 O) + HX where X may include OH, F, Cl, or Br

  4. Trinucleotide repeat disorder - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trinucleotide_repeat_disorder

    In genetics, trinucleotide repeat disorders, a subset of microsatellite expansion diseases (also known as repeat expansion disorders), are a set of over 30 genetic disorders caused by trinucleotide repeat expansion, a kind of mutation in which repeats of three nucleotides (trinucleotide repeats) increase in copy numbers until they cross a threshold above which they cause developmental ...

  5. CpG site - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CpG_site

    CpG is shorthand for 5'—C—phosphate—G—3' , that is, cytosine and guanine separated by only one phosphate group; phosphate links any two nucleosides together in DNA. . The CpG notation is used to distinguish this single-stranded linear sequence from the CG base-pairing of cytosine and guanine for double-stranded sequenc

  6. γ-L-Glutamyl-L-cysteine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Γ-L-Glutamyl-L-cysteine

    γ-L-Glutamyl-L-cysteine, also known as γ-glutamylcysteine (GGC), is a dipeptide found in animals, plants, fungi, some bacteria, and archaea.It has a relatively unusual γ-bond between the constituent amino acids, L-glutamic acid and L-cysteine and is a key intermediate in the γ-glutamyl cycle first described by Meister in the 1970s.

  7. Phosphoglucomutase - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phosphoglucomutase

    After glycogen phosphorylase catalyzes the phosphorolytic cleavage of a glucosyl residue from the glycogen polymer, the freed glucose has a phosphate group on its 1-carbon. . This glucose 1-phosphate molecule is not itself a useful metabolic intermediate, but phosphoglucomutase catalyzes the conversion of this glucose 1-phosphate to glucose 6-phosphate (see below for the mechanism of this reactio

  8. Renal replacement therapy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Renal_replacement_therapy

    Renal replacement therapy includes dialysis (hemodialysis or peritoneal dialysis), hemofiltration, and hemodiafiltration, which are various ways of filtration of blood with or without machines. Renal replacement therapy also includes kidney transplantation, which is the ultimate form of replacement in that the old kidney is replaced by a donor ...

  9. Guanosine-3',5'-bis(diphosphate) 3'-diphosphatase - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Guanosine-3',5'-bis...

    The systematic name is guanosine-3′,5′-bis(diphosphate) 3′-diphosphohydrolase. Other names in common use include guanosine-3′,5′-bis(diphosphate) 3′-pyrophosphatase, PpGpp-3'-pyrophosphohydrolase, and PpGpp phosphohydrolase. This enzyme participates in purine metabolism.
