Glossary Term
Major class of enzymes that catalyze the linking together of two molecules (EC class 6) for example DNA ligases that link two fragments of DNA by forming a phosphodiester bond.
Glossary Term
The lowest concentration of an analyte that can be quantified with acceptable accuracy and precision under stated conditions — distinct from, and higher than, the limit of detection.
Article
Research record from Diagn Microbiol Infect Dis, 2026-07-28. PMID 42561773.
Glossary Term
The formula to calculate body surface area as described by John D. Current. It is mathematically defined as: BSA (m^2) = 1321 + 0.3433 x Weight(g)
Indicators
Lipase; an enzyme secreted in the digestive tract that catalyzes the breakdown of fats into individual fatty acids that can be absorbed into the bloodstream.
Tests
The determination of the amount of lipase present in a sample.
Tests
The determination of the ratio of lipocalin-2 compared to creatinine present in a sample. The measurement may be expressed as a ratio or percentage.
Indicators
Lipoprotein lipase (475 aa, ~53 kDa) is encoded by the human LPL gene. This protein is involved in the metabolism of triglycerides.
Glossary Term
A genetic variation where gain, loss, or exchange of DNA results in monoallelic loss of function mutations in a diploid cell. In the context of tumor suppressor genes, where a single copy is sufficient for functionality, loss of function for the second allele is associated with tumorigenesis.
Indicators
A lipoprotein that carries cholesterol around the body, for use by various cells. LDL transports cholesterol to the arteries and increased levels are associated with atherosclerosis, and thus myocardial infarctions and strokes. This is why cholesterol inside LDL lipoproteins is called bad cholesterol.
Indicators
A heterodimeric glycoprotein hormone secreted by the gonadotropic cells of the anterior pituitary gland. This hormone is involved in stimulation of testosterone production by Leydig cells in males and triggering ovulation and corpus luteum development in females.
