Glossary Term
A part of a thing, or of several things, taken to demonstrate or to determine the character of the whole, e.g. a substance, or portion of material obtained for use in testing, examination, or study; particularly, a preparation of tissue or bodily fluid taken for examination or diagnosis.
Extraction Methodology
Glossary Term
Any mutation that occurs within the discrete sequences comprising the 5' or 3' splice sites of a gene that has a spliced message. Splice-site mutation may result in a deletion or insertion of extraneous amino acids in the gene product or a change in the reading frame of the spliced message.
Pcr Terms
Indicators
This gene is involved in protein ubiquitination, which often leads to proteasomal degradation.
Indicators
This gene is involved in apoptosis, hormonogenesis, focal adhesion and the formation of intercellular junctions.
Glossary Term
A measure of the range of values in a set of numbers. Standard deviation is a statistic used as a measure of the dispersion or variation in a distribution, equal to the square root of the arithmetic mean of the squares of the deviations from the arithmetic mean.
Performance Metrics
Glossary Term
The standard deviations of the sample in a frequency distribution, obtained by dividing the standard deviation by the square root of the total number of cases in the frequency distribution.
Performance Metrics
Glossary Term
An established procedure to be followed in carrying out a given operation or in a given situation.
Performance Metrics
Indicators
This gene plays a role in signal transduction and activation of transcription. It is involved in regulation of both apoptosis and cell growth.
Indicators
This gene is involved in signal transduction and activation of transcription. It plays a role in the immune response via stimulation of T-cell proliferation.
Glossary Term
The substitution of some value for a missing data point or a missing component of a data point.
Performance Metrics
Glossary Term
A measure of the likelihood that a significance test will detect an effect or difference in a sample if the effect or difference exists in the entire population from which that sample was taken.
Performance Metrics
Glossary Term
A test used to determine the statistical significance of an observation.
