  2. Low complexity regions in proteins - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Low_complexity_regions_in...

    Very similar trends for amino acids with a high (G, A, P, S, Q) and low (M, V, L, I, W, F, R, C) occurrence within LCRs have been observed in eukaryotes as well. [ 24 ] [ 21 ] This observed pattern of certain amino acids being over-represented (enriched for) or under-represented in LCRs could be partially explained by the energy cost for ...

  3. Mean platelet volume - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mean_platelet_volume

    Mean platelet volume (MPV) is a machine-calculated measurement of the average size of platelets found in blood and is typically included in blood tests as part of the CBC. Since the average platelet size is larger when the body is producing increased numbers of platelets, the MPV test results can be used to make inferences about platelet ...

  4. Low copy repeats - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Low_copy_repeats

    Many LCRs are concentrated in "hotspots", such as the 17p11-12 region, 27% of which is composed of LCR sequence. NAHR and non-homologous end joining (NHEJ) within this region are responsible for a wide range of disorders, including Charcot–Marie–Tooth syndrome type 1A , [ 5 ] hereditary neuropathy with liability to pressure palsies , [ 5 ...

  5. Locus control region - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Locus_control_region

    A locus control region (LCR) is a long-range cis-regulatory element that enhances expression of linked genes at distal chromatin sites. It functions in a copy number-dependent manner and is tissue-specific, as seen in the selective expression of β-globin genes in erythroid cells . [ 1 ]

  7. Platelet - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Platelet

    The term thrombocyte (clot cell) came into use in the early 1900s and is sometimes used as a synonym for platelet; but not generally in the scientific literature, except as a root word for other terms related to platelets (e.g. thrombocytopenia meaning low platelets).

  8. Ligase chain reaction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ligase_chain_reaction

    The ligase chain reaction (LCR) is a method of DNA amplification. The ligase chain reaction (LCR) is an amplification process that differs from polymerase chain reaction (PCR) in that it involves a thermostable ligase to join two probes or other molecules together which can then be amplified by standard PCR cycling.

  9. Complete blood count - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Complete_blood_count

    A complete blood count (CBC), also known as a full blood count (FBC), is a set of medical laboratory tests that provide information about the cells in a person's blood.The CBC indicates the counts of white blood cells, red blood cells and platelets, the concentration of hemoglobin, and the hematocrit (the volume percentage of red blood cells).
