Preparation for Journal Club 2

Ten New words from the 2003 Stanfield Article:

  1. Twinning- The assemblage of two or more crystals, or parts of crystals, in reversed position with reference to each other in accordance with some definite law
  2. CDR- complementarity determining region (CDR) is a relatively short amino acid sequence found in the variable (V) domains of antigen receptors
  3. Fab proteins- fragment of immunoglobulin prepared by papain treatment.
  4. Deglycosylated-The removal of the sugar entity from a glycogen
  5. Peptide cyclization- Changing an open-chain hydrocarbon to a closed ring in a peptide bond
  6. TOM/FRODO- a computer program that builds graphic images of a particular model.
  7. Ramachandran plot- is a way to visualize dihedral angles ψ against φ of amino acid residues in protein structure.[1] It shows the possible conformations of ψ and φ angles for a polypeptide.
  8. Matthews coefficient- is used in machine learning as a measure of the quality of binary (two-class) classifications.
  9. ASW mice- a hybrid mice often used in experimentation
  10. BALB/c mice-is an albino, laboratory-bred strain of the House Mouse from which a number of common substrains are derived.
