  2. Rope splicing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rope_splicing

    A cut splice is a join between two ropes, made by side splicing the ends slightly apart, to make an eye in the joined rope which lies shut when the rope is taut. Its original name was bowdlerised to "cut splice". A line eye-spliced to a snap shackle. Eye splice – A splice where the working end is spliced into the working part forming a loop.

  3. Western Union splice - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Western_union_splice

    Figure parts A–D show steps in forming a "short tie" Western Union splice. Figure parts E and F show two possible "long tie" variations. [2]The Western Union splice or Lineman splice is a method of joining electrical cable, developed in the nineteenth century during the introduction of the telegraph and named for the Western Union telegraph company.

  4. RNA splicing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RNA_splicing

    The major spliceosome splices introns containing GU at the 5' splice site and AG at the 3' splice site. It is composed of the U1 , U2 , U4 , U5 , and U6 snRNPs and is active in the nucleus. In addition, a number of proteins including U2 small nuclear RNA auxiliary factor 1 (U2AF35), U2AF2 (U2AF65) [ 10 ] and SF1 are required for the assembly of ...

  5. Eye splice - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eye_splice

    Eye splice. The eye splice is a method of creating a permanent loop (an "eye") in the end of a rope by means of rope splicing . The Flemish eye is a type of circular loop at the end of a thread. There are several techniques of creating the eye with its knot tied back to the line, rope or wire. [ 3][ 4]

  6. Rat-tail splice - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rat-tail_splice

    Rat-tail splice. A rat-tail splice, also known as a twist splice or a pig-tail splice, is a basic electrical splice that can be done with both solid and stranded wire. It is made by taking two or more bare wires and wrapping them together symmetrically around the common axis of both wires. The bare splice can be insulated with electrical tape ...

  7. Fid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fid

    Typically, all splice directions measurements use fid-length as the unit of measurement. Below is a chart that shows exact measurements of full fid lengths, short fid lengths, and long fid lengths, using 21 times the diameter of the rope.

  8. Spliceosome - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spliceosome

    Spliceosome. A spliceosome is a large ribonucleoprotein (RNP) complex found primarily within the nucleus of eukaryotic cells. The spliceosome is assembled from small nuclear RNAs (snRNA) and numerous proteins. Small nuclear RNA (snRNA) molecules bind to specific proteins to form a small nuclear ribonucleoprotein complex (snRNP, pronounced ...
