Adeno-associated virus (AAV) is a small virus which infects humans and some other primate species. AAV is not currently known to cause disease. The virus causes a very mild immune response, lending...
The epithelial sodium channel (short: ENaC, also: sodium channel non-neuronal 1 (SCNN1) or amiloride-sensitive sodium channel (ASSC)) is a membrane-bound ion-channel that is permeable for Li+-ions,...
Transduction is the process by which DNA is transferred from one bacterium to another by a virus.[1] It also refers to the process whereby foreign DNA is introduced into another cell via a viral ve...

In organic chemistry, transesterification /ˌtrænzˌɛstərɨfɨˈkeɪʃən/ is the process of exchanging the organic group R″ of an ester with the organic group R′ of an alcohol. These reactions are often c...
The positive transcription elongation factor, P-TEFb, plays an essential role in the regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II (Pol II) in eukaryotes.[1] Immediately following initiation Pol...
Tat contains a protein transduction domain, and is therefore known as a cell-penetrating peptide.[14] Originally[15] characterised by Frankel and Pabo (1988)[16] and Green and Loewenstein (1988),[1...
A biofilm is any group of microorganisms in which cells stick to each other on a surface. These adherent cells are frequently embedded within a self-produced matrix of extracellular polymeric subst...

Melatonin (Listeni/ˌmɛləˈtoʊnɪn/), chemically N-acetyl-5-methoxy tryptamine,[1] is a substance found in animals, plants, fungi and bacteria. In most of these organisms, except for animals, its func...
Cellulose is an organic compound with the formula (C 6H 10O 5) n, a polysaccharide consisting of a linear chain of several hundred to many thousands of β(1→4) linked D-glucose units.[3][4] Cell...
The Insulin-like growth factor-binding protein also known as IGFBP serves as a carrier protein for Insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-1). Approximately 98% of IGF-1 is always bound to one of six bi...
A membrane electrode assembly (MEA) is an assembled stack of proton exchange membranes (PEM) or alkali anion exchange membrane (AAEM), catalyst and flat plate electrode used in fuel cells and elect...
