In computer science, the earth mover's distance (EMD) is a distance-like measure of dissimilarity between two frequency distributions, densities, or measures over a region D. For probability distributions and normalized histograms, it reduces to the Wasserstein metric . Informally, if the distributions are interpreted ...

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ephrin
Ephrins (also known as ephrin ligands or Eph family receptor interacting proteins) are a family of proteins that serve as the ligands of the Eph receptor. Eph receptors in turn compose the largest known subfamily of receptor protein-tyrosine kinases (RTKs). Since ephrin ligands (ephrins) and Eph receptors (Ephs) are b...

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nuclear%20receptor%20coactivator%201
The nuclear receptor coactivator 1 (NCOA1) is a transcriptional coregulatory protein that contains several nuclear receptor interacting domains and an intrinsic histone acetyltransferase activity. NCOA1 is recruited to DNA promotion sites by ligand-activated nuclear receptors. NCOA1, in turn, acylates histones, which ...
