Tests
A ceruloplasmin test measures the amount of ceruloplasmin in a sample of your blood. Your liver makes ceruloplasmin by attaching copper to a protein. Your liver releases the ceruloplasmin into your bloodstream so it can carry copper to the parts of your body that need it.
Indicators
This gene is involved in the negative regulation of cell growth.
Glossary Term
Chi-square test is a statistical test for testing the null hypothesis that the distribution of a discrete random variable coincides with a given distribution. It is one of the most popular goodness-of-fit tests.
Tests
A chloride blood test measures the amount of chloride in your blood. Chloride is a type of electrolyte. Electrolytes are electrically charged minerals that help control the amount of fluids and the balance of acids and bases (pH balance) in your body. You have electrolytes in your blood, urine, tissues, and other body fluids.
Tests
A cholesterol test is a blood test that measures the amount of cholesterol and triglycerides (a type of fat) in your blood. Cholesterol is a waxy, fat-like substance that's found in your blood and every cell of your body. Your body needs some cholesterol to make hormones , vitamin D , and substances that help you digest foods.
Indicators
Cholinesterase (602 aa, ~68 kDa) is encoded by the human BCHE gene. This protein plays a role in choline metabolism.
Glossary Term
The genetic material of the nucleus, consisting of deoxyribonucleoprotein, which occurs in two forms during the phase between mitotic divisions: 1) as heterochromatin, seen as condensed, readily stainable clumps; 2) as euchromatin, dispersed lightly staining or nonstaining material. During mitotic division the chromatin condenses into chromosomes.
Indicators
Chromogranin-A (457 aa, ~51 kDa) is encoded by the human CHGA gene. This protein plays a role in the modulation of both blood pressure and pancreatic release of insulin.
Glossary Term
A structure found in cells that is comprised of a strand of linearized double-stranded DNA plus proteins that package the DNA in a condensed coil form and regulate chromosomal function.
Tests
This test measures the amount of chymotrypsin in a stool (poop) sample. Chymotrypsin is an enzyme, a protein that speeds up certain chemical reactions in your body. It is released by your pancreas (an organ behind your stomach) to help break down the protein in your food during digestion. If your pancreas is working as it should, there will be some chymotrypsin in your stool sample.
Indicators
This gene is involved in the modulation of transcription.
Glossary Term
A sequence of single-stranded RNA that forms a covalently closed continuous loop.
