Localize: Determination of the original position (locus) of a gene or other marker on a chromosome.
A localized extension of the body surface of many aquatic animals, specialized for gas exchange.
gland ...
The localized accumulation of auxin in epidermal cells of the root initiates the formation of lateral or secondary roots.
The localized and time-limited activity of Ca2+ in the cytosol is also called a Ca2+ wave. The building of the wave is done by ...
placode Localized, plate-like thickening of vertebrate head ectoderm from which a specialized structure develops; such structures include eye lens, special sense organs, and certain neurons.
gall. Localized swelling or outgrowth of plant tissue, often formed in response to the action of a pathogen or other pest.
These proteins localize to two regions of the nuclear compartment, the nuclear lamina -- a proteinaceous structure layer subjacent to the inner surface of the nuclear envelope and throughout the nucleoplasm in the nucleoplasmic "veil".
Deletion mapping -- the use of overlapping deletions to localize the position of an unknown gene on a chromosome or linkage map.
And in that egg, she localizes RNAs to the two ends. And then these RNAs are localized-the machinery to localize those are maternal coordinate genes. Those RNAs get translated, and form gradients of protein in the early embryo.
Presenilins are multi-spanning transmembrane proteins which localize primarily to the endoplasmic reticulum and the Golgi compartments.
Mitochondrial DNA is localized to the matrix, which also contains a host of enzymes, as well as ribosomes for protein synthesis.
"The spleen appears about the fifth week as a localized thickening of the mesoderm in the dorsal mesogastrium above the tail of the pancreas.
A meristem may be defined as a region of localized mitosis. Meristems may be at the tip of the shoot or root (a type known as the apical meristem) or lateral, occurring in cylinders extending nearly the length of the plant.
Humans ferment lactic acid in muscles where oxygen becomes depleted, resulting in localized anaerobic conditions. This lactic acid causes the muscle stiffness couch-potatoes feel after beginning exercise programs.
colony - a distinct localized population within a species; includes ants, termites and bees as well as some tent caterpillars, webworms, etc.
comatose - an unconscious state; may be due to disease, injury, or poison ...
Coated pits Specialized regions of the plasma membrane containing localized cell-membrane receptors. The cytosolic side of these indentations is coated with the protein clathrin.
Domain
A discrete, independantly folded region of a protein. Different functions of a multifunctional protein are usually localized in separate domains.
However, if wide ranges are searched, transitional forms that bridge the gap between the two species are sometimes found in small, localized areas. For example, in Jurassic brachiopods of the genus Kutchithyris, K.
It is notable, however, that in Drosophila, visualization of the two proteins suggests that most Smo does not colocalize with Ptc, at least in cells responding to Hh (Denef, 2000).
