- Peptides (from Gr.: πεπτός, peptós digested; derived from πέσσειν, péssein to digest) are natural biological or artificially manufactured short chains of amino acid monomers linked by peptide (amide) bonds. The covalent chemical bonds are formed when the carboxyl group of one amino acid reacts with the amine group of another.

Monthly Archives: September 2013 Building a polypeptide: Polymers are chains of subunits, monomers, linked together by chemical bonds. The bond between two amino acids is known as a peptide bond. Two amino acids, joined together by a peptide bond, are known as a dipeptide. An amino acid polymer is known as a polypeptide.A polypeptide can be composed of 20 different possible monomers that can, in theory, be linked together in any imaginable order.he peptide bond has a number of characteristics that are critical in determining how polypeptides behave. Although drawn as a single bond, the peptide bond behaves more like a double bond. While there is free rotation around a single bond, rotation around a peptide bond is constrained.

Polyadenylation Polyadenylation is the addition of a poly(A) tail to a messenger RNA. The poly(A) tail consists of multiple adenosine monophosphates; in other words, it is a stretch of RNA that has only adenine bases. In eukaryotes, polyadenylation is part of the process that produces mature messenger RNA (mRNA) for translation.

- He defined idiotype as the set of epitopes on the V region of an antibody molecule, where epitope means an antigenic determinant. He also defined the  paratope  to be that part of an antibody variable region that binds to an antigen.he variable region of antigen receptors of T cells (TCRs) and B cells (immunoglobulins) contain complementarity determining regions (CDRs) with unique amino acid sequences. They define the surface and properties of the variable region, determining the antigen specificity and therefore the idio tope of the molecule.

Post-modern portfolio theory Post-modern portfolio theory. Post-modern portfolio theory (or PMPT) is an extension of the traditional modern portfolio theory (MPT, which is an application of mean-variance analysis or MVA). Both theories propose how rational investors should use diversification to optimize their portfolios, and how a risky asset should be priced.

Polyphosphate Polyphosphates are salts or esters of polymeric oxyanions formed from tetrahedral PO 4 (phosphate) structural units linked together by sharing oxygen atoms. Polyphosphates can adopt linear or a cyclic ring structures.In biology, the polyphosphate esters ADP and ATP are involved in energy storage. A variety of polyphosphates find application in mineral sequestration in municipal waters, generally being present at 1 to 5 ppm.GTP, CTP, and UTP are also nucleotides important in the protein synthesis, lipid synthesis, and carbohydrate metabolism, respectively. variety of polyphosphates find application in mineral sequestration in municipal waters, generally being present at 1 to 5 ppm.

serotonin a naturally occurring derivative of tryptophan found in platelets and in cells of the brain and the intestine. Serotonin is released from platelets on damage to the blood vessel walls. It acts as a potent vasoconstrictor. Serotonin in intestinal tissue stimulates the smooth muscle to contract.

Polyp (medicine) A polyp is an abnormal growth of tissue projecting from a mucous membrane. If it is attached to the surface by a narrow elongated stalk, it is said to be pedunculated. If no stalk is present, it is said to be sessile. Polyps are commonly found in the colon, stomach, nose, sinus(es) , urinary bladder and uterus. They may also occur elsewhere in the body where mucous membranes exist like the cervix, vocal folds, and small intestine.
