  2. 3-Methylhexane - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/3-Methylhexane

    3-Methylhexane is a branched hydrocarbon with two enantiomers. [2] It is one of the isomers of heptane. The molecule is chiral, and is one of the two isomers of heptane to have this property, the other being its structural isomer 2,3-dimethylpentane. The enantiomers are (R)-3-methylhexane [3] and (S)-3-methylhexane. [4]

  3. Biochemical switches in the cell cycle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Biochemical_switches_in...

    The G1/S cell cycle checkpoint controls the passage of eukaryotic cells from the first gap phase, G1, into the DNA synthesis phase, S. In this switch in mammalian cells, there are two cell cycle kinases that help to control the checkpoint: cell cycle kinases CDK4/6-cyclin D and CDK2-cyclin E. [ 1 ] The transcription complex that includes Rb and ...

  4. Hammond's postulate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hammond's_postulate

    George Hammond developed the postulate during his professorship at Iowa State University. Hammond's postulate (or alternatively the Hammond–Leffler postulate), is a hypothesis in physical organic chemistry which describes the geometric structure of the transition state in an organic chemical reaction. [1]

  5. Biomolecular condensate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Biomolecular_condensate

    In biology the term 'condensation' is used much more broadly and can also refer to liquid–liquid phase separation to form colloidal emulsions or liquid crystals within cells, and liquid–solid phase separation to form gels, [1] sols, or suspensions within cells as well as liquid-to-solid phase transitions such as DNA condensation during ...

  6. Biological applications of bifurcation theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Biological_applications_of...

    The phase diagrams are shown in Figure 5. Tracking the x-intercepts in the phase diagram as r changes, there are two fixed point trajectories which intersect at the origin; this is the bifurcation point (intuitively, when the number of x-intercepts in the phase portrait changes). The left fixed point is always unstable, and the right one stable.

  7. Halogenation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Halogenation

    In chemistry, halogenation is a chemical reaction which introduces one or more halogens into a chemical compound. Halide -containing compounds are pervasive, making this type of transformation important, e.g. in the production of polymers , drugs . [ 1 ]

  8. CALPHAD - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CALPHAD

    CALPHAD stands for Computer Coupling of Phase Diagrams and Thermochemistry, a methodology introduced in 1970 by Larry Kaufman, originally known as CALculation of PHAse Diagrams. [1] [2] [3] An equilibrium phase diagram is usually a diagram with axes for temperature and composition of a chemical system. It shows the regions where substances or ...

  9. Phase diagram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phase_diagram

    Thus, the space model of a ternary phase diagram is a right-triangular prism. The prism sides represent corresponding binary systems A-B, B-C, A-C. However, the most common methods to present phase equilibria in a ternary system are the following: 1) projections on the concentration triangle ABC of the liquidus, solidus, solvus surfaces; 2 ...
