  2. Chromosomal translocation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chromosomal_translocation

    Chromosomal reciprocal translocation of the 4th and 20th chromosome. In genetics, chromosome translocation is a phenomenon that results in unusual rearrangement of chromosomes. This includes balanced and unbalanced translocation, with two main types: reciprocal, and Robertsonian translocation.

  3. Translocon - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Translocon

    The translocon (also known as a translocator or translocation channel) is a complex of proteins associated with the translocation of polypeptides across membranes. [1] In eukaryotes the term translocon most commonly refers to the complex that transports nascent polypeptides with a targeting signal sequence into the interior (cisternal or lumenal) space of the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) from ...

  4. Karyotype - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Karyotype

    Karyotypes describe the chromosome count of an organism and what these chromosomes look like under a light microscope. Attention is paid to their length, the position of the centromeres, banding pattern, any differences between the sex chromosomes, and any other physical characteristics. [3]

  5. Chromosomal rearrangement - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chromosomal_rearrangement

    Such changes may involve several different classes of events, like deletions, duplications, inversions, and translocations. Usually, these events are caused by a breakage in the DNA double helices at two different locations, followed by a rejoining of the broken ends to produce a new chromosomal arrangement of genes , different from the gene ...

  6. Translocation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Translocation

    Twin-arginine translocation pathway, a protein export pathway found in plants, bacteria, and archaea; Translocation (botany), transport of nutrients through phloem; Protein translocation, also called protein targeting, a process in protein biosynthesis; Species translocation, movement of a species, by people, from one area to another

  7. Phloem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phloem

    This transport process is called translocation. [2] In trees, the phloem is the innermost layer of the bark, hence the name, derived from the Ancient Greek word φλοιός (phloiós), meaning "bark". [3] [4] The term was introduced by Carl Nägeli in 1858. [5] [6] Different types of phloem can be distinguished. The early phloem formed in the ...

  8. Species translocation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Species_translocation

    Translocation can be an effective management strategy and important topic in conservation biology, but despite their popularity, translocations are a high‐cost endeavor with a history of failures. [ 3 ] [ 4 ] It may decrease the risk of extinction by increasing the range of a species, augmenting the numbers in a critical population, or ...

  9. Helicase - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Helicase

    If translocation occurs 3’-5’ the helicase is type A; if translocation occurs 5’-3’ it is type B. [26] Superfamily 1 (SF1): This superfamily can be further subdivided into SF1A and SF1B helicases. [26] In this group helicases can have either 3’-5’ (SF1A subfamily) or 5’-3’(SF1B subfamily) translocation polarity.
