  2. Cell sorting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cell_sorting

    Cell sorting is the process through which a particular cell type is separated from others contained in a sample on the basis of its physical or biological properties, such as size, morphological parameters, viability and both extracellular and intracellular protein expression.

  3. Protein targeting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Protein_targeting

    Protein targeting or protein sorting is the biological mechanism by which proteins are transported to their appropriate destinations within or outside the cell. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] [ note 1 ] Proteins can be targeted to the inner space of an organelle , different intracellular membranes , the plasma membrane , or to the exterior of the cell via secretion .

    Examples include biological or social networks, which contain hundreds, thousands and even billions of nodes in some cases (e.g. Facebook or LinkedIn). 1-planarity [1] 3-dimensional matching [2] [3]: SP1 Bandwidth problem [3]: GT40 Bipartite dimension [3]: GT18 Capacitated minimum spanning tree [3]: ND5

  6. Major histocompatibility complex and sexual selection

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Major_histocompatibility...

    MHC-based sexual selection is known to involve olfactory mechanisms in such vertebrate taxa as fish, mice, humans, primates, birds, and reptiles. [1] At its simplest level, humans have long been acquainted with the sense of olfaction for its use in determining the pleasantness or the unpleasantness of one's resources, food, etc.

  7. Incomplete lineage sorting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Incomplete_lineage_sorting

    Incomplete lineage sorting (ILS) [1] [2] [3] (also referred to as hemiplasy, deep coalescence, retention of ancestral polymorphism, or trans-species polymorphism) is a phenomenon in evolutionary biology and population genetics that results in discordance between species and gene trees.

  8. Intracellular transport - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intracellular_transport

    Defects encompass improper sorting of cargo into transport carriers, vesicle budding, issues in movement of vesicles along cytoskeletal tracks, and fusion at the target membrane. Since the life cycle of the cell is a highly regulated and important process, if any component goes awry there is the possibility for deleterious effects.

  9. Taxonomy (biology) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Taxonomy_(biology)

    Systematic biology (hereafter called simply systematics) is the field that (a) provides scientific names for organisms, (b) describes them, (c) preserves collections of them, (d) provides classifications for the organisms, keys for their identification, and data on their distributions, (e) investigates their evolutionary histories, and (f ...
