  2. Conserved non-coding sequence - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conserved_non-coding_sequence

    CNSs in plants [2] and animals [1] are highly associated with transcription factor binding sites and other cis-acting regulatory elements. Conserved non-coding sequences can be important sites of evolutionary divergence [ 3 ] as mutations in these regions may alter the regulation of conserved genes , producing species-specific patterns of gene ...

  3. Committee on National Security Systems - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Committee_on_National...

    The CNSS holds discussions of policy issues, sets national policy, directions, operational procedures, and guidance for the information systems operated by the U.S. Government, its contractors or agents that either contain classified information, involve intelligence activities, involve cryptographic activities related to national security, involve command and control of military forces ...

  4. Cell-based models - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cell-based_models

    Cell-based models are mathematical models that represent biological cells as discrete entities. Within the field of computational biology they are often simply called agent-based models [1] of which they are a specific application and they are used for simulating the biomechanics of multicellular structures such as tissues. to study the influence of these behaviors on how tissues are organised ...

    The National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI) [1] [2] is part of the (NLM), a branch of the National Institutes of Health (NIH). It is approved and funded by the government of the United States. The NCBI is located in Bethesda, Maryland, and was founded in 1988 through legislation sponsored by US Congressman Claude Pepper.

  6. Cell theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cell_theory

    The cell is the fundamental unit of structure and function in all living organisms. [14] The activity of an organism depends on the total activity of independent cells. [15] Energy flow (metabolism and biochemistry) occurs within cells. Cells contain DNA which is found specifically in the chromosome and RNA found in the cell nucleus and ...

  7. Outline of cell biology - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Outline_of_cell_biology

    Light micrograph of a moss's leaf cells at 400X magnification. The following outline is provided as an overview of and topical guide to cell biology: . Cell biology – A branch of biology that includes study of cells regarding their physiological properties, structure, and function; the organelles they contain; interactions with their environment; and their life cycle, division, and death.

  8. Cytogenetics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cytogenetics

    A metaphase cell positive for the BCR/ABL rearrangement using FISH. Cytogenetics is essentially a branch of genetics, but is also a part of cell biology/cytology (a subdivision of human anatomy), that is concerned with how the chromosomes relate to cell behaviour, particularly to their behaviour during mitosis and meiosis. [1]

  9. Cellular automaton - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cellular_automaton

    The Ising model is a prototypical example, in which each cell can be in either of two states called "up" and "down", making an idealized representation of a magnet. By adjusting the parameters of the model, the proportion of cells being in the same state can be varied, in ways that help explicate how ferromagnets become demagnetized when heated.
