Dictionary » A » Analogs Analogs1. One of two organs or parts in different species of animals or plants which differ in structure or development but are similar in function. 2. A compound that resembles another in structure but is not necessarily an isomer (e.g., 5-fluorouracil is an analog of thymine); analogs are often used to block enzymatic reactions by combining with enzymes (e.g., isopropyl thiogalactoside vs. Lactose). Synonym: analogue. Origin: g. Analogos, proportionate

Results from our forumRe: Conservative region of a gene... in the functional sites would be expected to be conserved by natural selection. Second, if you are going to bind nucleic acids or nucleic acid analogs to a target site in the SNP you might want to know whether the target regions may vary across alleles or even across species. Part of my days ...

Re: IBO 2003 questions- please help me out... under the control of LacI (repressor), which is inactive in the presence of lactose (inductor). There is a wide diversity of the chemical lactose analogs, for example: Orthonitrophenyl-β-D-galactoside (ONPG ) – is a substrate for β-galactosidase but not an inductor. The product of this reaction ...

About viral diseases...... genetic material of the virus and the processes that involving viruses' genetic material. Example is AZT for HIV treatment which is an nucleoside analogs for integrase, so the enzyme integrates the DNA virus (via reverse transcriptase) into this nucleoside analog, not into the host genome.

The Fiber Disease... large hydrogen yield found experimentally from uracil upon attachment of LEEs. Potential applications of this process for the synthesis of uracil analogs using LEE irradiation are suggested. [R1.079] Diffusion, Dispersion, and Mobility of Single-stranded DNA in Polyacrylamide Gel Electrophoresis ...

The Fiber Disease... with sequences complementary to specific target genes to improve drug discovery and target validation. Development of sequence-specific DNA or RNA analogs that can block the activity of selected single-stranded genetic sequences offers the possibility of rational design with high specificity, lacking ...
