  2. Signal patch - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Signal_patch

    A protein signal patch contains information to send a given protein to the indicated location in the cell. It is made up of amino acid residues that are distant to one another in the primary sequence , but come close to each other in the tertiary structure of the folded protein (see red patch in the diagram).

    A signal peptide (sometimes referred to as signal sequence, targeting signal, localization signal, localization sequence, transit peptide, leader sequence or leader peptide) is a short peptide (usually 16-30 amino acids long) [1] present at the N-terminus (or occasionally nonclassically at the C-terminus [2] or internally) of most newly synthesized proteins that are destined toward the ...

  7. Protein targeting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Protein_targeting

    While most signal peptides are found at the N-terminal, in peroxisomes the targeting sequence is located on the C-terminal extension. [8] Unlike signal peptides, signal patches are composed by amino acid residues that are discontinuous in the primary sequence but become functional when folding brings them together on the protein surface. [9]

  8. Evil twin (wireless networks) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Evil_twin_(wireless_networks)

    The evil twin is the wireless LAN equivalent of the phishing scam. This type of attack may be used to steal the passwords of unsuspecting users, either by monitoring their connections or by phishing, which involves setting up a fraudulent web site and luring people there.

  9. IMSI-catcher - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IMSI-catcher

    It sends a signal with a plethora of commands to the endpoints, which respond by establishing a connection and routes all conversations and data traffic between the endpoints and the actual cell tower for as long as the attacker wishes. A passive IMSI-catcher on the other hand only detects the IMSI, TMSI or IMEI of an endpoint. Once the IMSI ...
