An origin of transfer ( oriT) is a short sequence ranging from 40-500 base pairs in length [1] [2] that is necessary for the transfer of DNA from a gram-negative bacterial donor to recipient during bacterial conjugation. [3] [4] [5] The transfer of DNA is a critical component for antimicrobial resistance within bacterial cells [6] and the oriT ...
Laplace transform. In mathematics, the Laplace transform, named after Pierre-Simon Laplace ( / ləˈplɑːs / ), is an integral transform that converts a function of a real variable (usually , in the time domain) to a function of a complex variable (in the complex-valued frequency domain, also known as s-domain, or s-plane ).
In computing, a cache ( / kæʃ / ⓘ KASH) [ 1] is a hardware or software component that stores data so that future requests for that data can be served faster; the data stored in a cache might be the result of an earlier computation or a copy of data stored elsewhere. A cache hit occurs when the requested data can be found in a cache, while a ...
Definition. The Bode plot for a linear, time-invariant system with transfer function ( being the complex frequency in the Laplace domain) consists of a magnitude plot and a phase plot. The Bode magnitude plot is the graph of the function of frequency (with being the imaginary unit ). The -axis of the magnitude plot is logarithmic and the ...
Genetic engineering. Recombinant DNA ( rDNA) molecules are DNA molecules formed by laboratory methods of genetic recombination (such as molecular cloning) that bring together genetic material from multiple sources, creating sequences that would not otherwise be found in the genome . Recombinant DNA is the general name for a piece of DNA that ...
Bacterial conjugation. Bacterial conjugation is the transfer of genetic material between bacterial cells by direct cell-to-cell contact or by a bridge-like connection between two cells. [ 1] This takes place through a pilus. [ 2][full citation needed] It is a parasexual mode of reproduction in bacteria. A micrograph displaying Escherichia coli ...
Transfer function. In engineering, a transfer function (also known as system function[ 1] or network function) of a system, sub-system, or component is a mathematical function that models the system's output for each possible input. [ 2][ 3][ 4] It is widely used in electronic engineering tools like circuit simulators and control systems.
The transfer-matrix method is a method used in optics and acoustics to analyze the propagation of electromagnetic or acoustic waves through a stratified medium; a stack of thin films. [ 1][ 2] This is, for example, relevant for the design of anti-reflective coatings and dielectric mirrors . The reflection of light from a single interface ...
