https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Treo%20700p | The Palm Treo 700p was a cell phone with advanced capabilities, commonly referred to as a smartphone. Unlike the slightly earlier Treo 700w, this model is based on Palm OS. This is the first Palm OS-based Treo model to feature high-speed cellular network support, and is also the first Treo model to support Bluetooth... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Purine%20nucleoside%20phosphorylase | Purine nucleoside phosphorylase, PNP, PNPase or inosine phosphorylase () is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the NP gene. It catalyzes the chemical reaction
purine nucleoside + phosphate purine + alpha-D-ribose 1-phosphate
Thus, the two substrates of this enzyme are a purine nucleoside and phosphate, whereas i... |

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pioneer%20neuron | A pioneer neuron is a cell that is a derivative of the preplate in the early stages of corticogenesis of the brain. Pioneer neurons settle in the marginal zone of the cortex and project to sub-cortical levels. In the rat, pioneer neurons are only present in prenatal brains. Unlike Cajal-Retzius cells, these neurons are... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frzb | Frzb (pronounced like the toy frisbee) is a Wnt-binding protein especially important in embryonic development. It is a competitor for the cell-surface G-protein receptor Frizzled.
Frizzled is a tissue polarity gene in Drosophila melanogaster and encodes integral proteins that function as cell-surface receptors for Wnt... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Error%20exponent | In information theory, the error exponent of a channel code or source code over the block length of the code is the rate at which the error probability decays exponentially with the block length of the code. Formally, it is defined as the limiting ratio of the negative logarithm of the error probability to the block le... |
