Glossary Term
The assemblage of traits or outward appearance of an individual. It is the product of interactions between genes and between genes and the environment.
Indicators
A hydantoin derivative and a non-sedative antiepileptic agent with anticonvulsant activity. Phenytoin potentially acts by promoting sodium efflux from neurons located in the motor cortex reducing post-tetanic potentiation at synapses. The reduction of potentiation prevents cortical seizure foci spreading to adjacent areas, stabilizing the threshold against hyperexcitability. In addition, this agent appears to reduce sensitivity of muscle spindles to stretch causing muscle relaxation.
Indicators
This gene plays a role in transcriptional regulation.
Glossary Term
A score reported on a logarithmic scale representing the probability that a nucleotide base was incorrectly called by the base caller.
Indicators
This gene is involved in phosphoinositol signaling.
Indicators
Plasminogen (810 aa, ~91 kDa) is encoded by the human PLG gene. This protein is involved in fibrinolysis, platelet activation and tissue remodeling.
Indicators
Plasminogen activator inhibitor 1 (402 aa, ~45 kDa) is encoded by the human SERPINE1 gene. This protein plays a role in both cell adhesion and the modulation of plasmin activity.
Tests
The determination of the plasmodium lactate dehydrogenase in a sample.
Tests
The determination of the amount or magnitude of the platelet aggregation present in a sample.
Tests
The determination of the amount of Plesiomonas shigelloides DNA present in a sample.
Indicators
This gene is involved in mismatch repair and mutations in the gene result in hereditary non-polyposis colon cancer 3.
