    3' untranslated region (3'-UTR). Also three-prime untranslated region, 3' non-translated region (3'-NTR), and trailer sequence.. 3'-end. Also three-prime end.. One of two ends of a single linear strand of DNA or RNA, specifically the end at which the chain of nucleotides terminates at the third carbon atom in the furanose ring of deoxyribose or ribose (i.e. the terminus at which the 3' carbon ...

  3. Helix - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Helix

    A curve is called a general helix or cylindrical helix [4] if its tangent makes a constant angle with a fixed line in space. A curve is a general helix if and only if the ratio of curvature to torsion is constant. [5] A curve is called a slant helix if its principal normal makes a constant angle with a fixed line in space. [6]

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/X̂

    The letter is used in the modern orthography of the Aleut language [1] and in the current Alaska Native Language Center alphabet of the Haida language. [2] In both cases, it represents the sound [ χ ] : the dental tippred sound are the value of plosively rhotic consonant, if the uvular consonant has streegaters to strange the consonant to the ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Engineering_drawing...

    A letter v (Latin small letter v) written on a line representing a surface is a way to indicate that the surface is to be machined rather than left in the as-cast or as-forged state. The older symbol for this was a small script (italic) f (see herein f). Later the ASA convened upon a letter V (specifically a sans-serif V) touching the surface ...

    The letter m has three, the left, middle, and right stems. The central stroke of an s is known as the spine. [6] When the stroke is part of a lowercase [4] and rises above the height of an x (the x height), it is known as an ascender. [7] Letters with ascenders are b d f h k l. A stroke which drops below the baseline is a descender. [7]

  7. Nucleic acid sequence - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nucleic_acid_sequence

    The possible letters are A, C, G, and T, representing the four nucleotide bases of a DNA strand – adenine, cytosine, guanine, thymine – covalently linked to a phosphodiester backbone. In the typical case, the sequences are printed abutting one another without gaps, as in the sequence AAAGTCTGAC, read left to right in the 5' to 3' direction.

  9. Transmembrane protein - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transmembrane_protein

    In addition to the protein domains, there are unusual transmembrane elements formed by peptides. A typical example is gramicidin A, a peptide that forms a dimeric transmembrane β-helix. [8] This peptide is secreted by gram-positive bacteria as an antibiotic. A transmembrane polyproline-II helix has not been reported in natural proteins ...
