transduction -- Viral transfer of DNA to new host.
transgression -- (n) A rise in sea level relative to the land.
tree -- Any tall plant, including many conifers and flowering plants, as well as extinct lycophytes and sphenophytes.
Transduction
Bacteriophages are viruses that infect bacteria. In the process of assembling new virus particles, some host DNA may be incorporated in them.
Illustrated discussion
The virion head can hold only so much DNA so these viruses ...
transduction
[L. trans, across + ducere, to lead]
The transfer of genetic material (DNA) from one cell to another by a virus.

Transduction. The transfer of DNA sequences from one bacterium to another via lysogenic infection by a bacteriophage (transducing phage).
Transfection. The uptake and expression of a foreign DNA sequence by cultured eukaryotic cells.
Signal transduction
Conditions that alter the conformation of a protein which regulates expression of other genes.
Transduction is another method

for transferring genes from one bacterium to another; this time the transfer is mediated by bacteriophages (bacterial viruses, also called phages) (Fig. 2).
Transduction
Gene transfer from one cell to another brought about by a virus.
Transduction is the transfer of host DNA from one cell to another by a virus. Some bacteriophages are temperate since they tend to go lysogenic rather than lytic. These types of viruses are able to transduce fragments of the host DNA.
transduction. Condition in which bacterial DNA (and the genetic characteristics it bears) is transferred from one bacterium to another by the agent of viral infection.
transection The severing of a nerve to determine its specific function(s).
The simultaneous transduction of two or more genes. The simultaneous transduction of two bacterial marker genes.

Signal transduction. The biochemical events that conduct the signal of a hormone or growth factor from the cell exterior, through the cell membrane, and into the cytoplasm.
The first step in the transduction of light energy to a neural signal is the light-induced isomerization (change of shape) of a chromophore, specifically a vitamin A derivative. Each chromophore is bound to a membrane protein called an opsin.
coli metabolic pathways to include signal-transduction pathways, transport proteins, regulation of gene expression, and tRNAs. Version5.0, released in June, contains detailed annotations of E.
(Science: biochemistry cell biology) a theoretical mechanism (proposed by Mitchell) to explain energy transduction in the mitochondrion.
Arrestin A protein that plays a role in the termination of the visual signal-transduction pathway by binding to phosphorylated rhodopsin and preventing further interaction with transducin.
Signaling involves a receptor, the transduction of information from the cell surface to inside the cell, and subcellular systems that make a response.

Cytosol: The cytosol is the "soup" within which all the other cell organelles reside and where most of the cellular metabolism occurs. Though mostly water, the cytosol is full of proteins that control cell metabolism including signal transduction ...
PACKAGE - In recombinant DNA procedures, refers to the step of incorporation of cosmid or other lambda vector DNA with an insert into a phage head for transduction of DNA into host.
Examples of broad biological process terms are "cell growth and maintenance," or "signal transduction." Examples of more specific terms are "pyrimidine metabolism" or "cAMP biosynthesis. It is not equivalent to a pathway.
into the surrounding environment. Recall that Griffith's experiment demonstrated this process. The third process, transduction, happens when bacteriophage transfer portions of bacterial DNA from one cell to another.
Transduction -- the transfer of bacterial genetic material from one bacterium to another using a phage as a vector. Transferase -- enzymes that catalyze the transfer of functional groups between donor and acceptor molecules.
