A polytropic process is a thermodynamic process that obeys the relation: where p is the pressure, V is volume, n is the polytropic index, and C is a constant. The polytropic process equation describes expansion and compression processes which include heat transfer. Particular cases Some specific values of n correspon...
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Human%20mitochondrial%20DNA%20haplogroup
In human genetics, a human mitochondrial DNA haplogroup is a haplogroup defined by differences in human mitochondrial DNA. Haplogroups are used to represent the major branch points on the mitochondrial phylogenetic tree. Understanding the evolutionary path of the female lineage has helped population geneticists trace ...
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Haplogroup%20JT
Haplogroup JT is a human mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) haplogroup. Origin Haplogroup JT is descended from the macro-haplogroup R. It is the ancestral clade to the mitochondrial haplogroups J and T. JT (predominantly J) was found among the ancient Etruscans. The haplogroup has also been found among Iberomaurusian specimen...

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Penicillin-binding%20proteins
Penicillin-binding proteins (PBPs) are a group of proteins that are characterized by their affinity for and binding of penicillin. They are a normal constituent of many bacteria; the name just reflects the way by which the protein was discovered. All β-lactam antibiotics (except for tabtoxinine-β-lactam, which inhibits...
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carotenoid%20oxygenase
Carotenoid oxygenases are a family of enzymes involved in the cleavage of carotenoids to produce, for example, retinol, commonly known as vitamin A. This family includes an enzyme known as RPE65 which is abundantly expressed in the retinal pigment epithelium where it catalyzed the formation of 11-cis-retinol from a...
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NlaIII
NlaIII is a type II restriction enzyme isolated from Neisseria lactamica. As part of the restriction modification system, NlaIII is able to prevent foreign DNA from integrating into the host genome by cutting double stranded DNA into fragments at specific sequences. This results in further degradation of the fragmented...
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/T%20arm
The T-arm or T-loop is a specialized region on the tRNA molecule which acts as a special recognition site for the ribosome to form a tRNA-ribosome complex during protein biosynthesis or translation (biology). The T-arm has two components to it; the T-stems and the T-loop. There are two T-stems of five base pairs eac...
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cryptoregiochemistry
Cryptoregiochemistry refers to the site of initial oxidative attack in double bond formation by enzymes such as fatty acid desaturases. This is a mechanistic parameter that is usually determined through the use of kinetic isotope effect experiments, based on the premise that the initial C-H bond cleavage step should be...
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interleukin%207
Interleukin 7 (IL-7) is a protein that in humans is encoded by the IL7 gene. IL-7 is a hematopoietic growth factor secreted by stromal cells in the bone marrow and thymus. It is also produced by keratinocytes, dendritic cells, hepatocytes, neurons, and epithelial cells, but is not produced by normal lymphocytes. A stu...
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Homeoviscous%20adaptation
Homeoviscous adaptation is the adaptation of the cell membrane lipid composition to keep the adequate membrane fluidity. The maintenance of proper cell membrane fluidity is of critical importance for the function and integrity of the cell, essential for the mobility and function of embedded proteins and lipids, diffus...
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/D%20arm
The D arm is a feature in the tertiary structure of transfer RNA (tRNA). It is composed of the two D stems and the D loop. The D loop contains the base dihydrouridine, for which the arm is named. The D loop's main function is that of recognition. It is widely believed that it acts as a recognition site for aminoacyl-tR...

John's equation is an ultrahyperbolic partial differential equation satisfied by the X-ray transform of a function. It is named after Fritz John. Given a function with compact support the X-ray transform is the integral over all lines in . We will parameterise the lines by pairs of points , on each line and define ...
