https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clone%20%28B-cell%29
The process of immunological B-cell maturation involves transformation from an undifferentiated B cell to one that secretes antibodies with particular specificity. This differentiation and activation of the B cell occurs most rapidly after exposure to antigen by antigen-presenting cells in the reticuloendothelial syst...
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SOS1
Son of sevenless homolog 1 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the SOS1 gene. Function SOS1 is a guanine nucleotide exchange factor (GEF) which interacts with Ras proteins to phosphorylate GDP into GTP, or from an inactive state to an active state to signal cell proliferation. RAS genes (e.g., MIM 190020) encod...
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Melanotroph
A melanotroph (or melanotrope) is a cell in the pituitary gland that generates melanocyte-stimulating hormone (α‐MSH) from its precursor pro-opiomelanocortin. Chronic stress can induce the secretion of α‐MSH in melanotrophs and lead to their subsequent degeneration. See also Chromophobe cell Chromophil Acidophil c...

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Group-specific%20antigen
Group-specific antigen, or gag, is the polyprotein that contains the core structural proteins of an Ortervirus (except Caulimoviridae). It was named as such because scientists used to believe it was antigenic. Now it is known that it makes up the inner shell, not the envelope exposed outside. It makes up all the struct...
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gag-onc%20fusion%20protein
The gag-onc fusion protein is a general term for a fusion protein formed from a group-specific antigen ('gag') gene and that of an oncogene ('onc'), a gene that plays a role in the development of a cancer. The name is also written as Gag-v-Onc, with "v" indicating that the Onc sequence resides in a viral genome. Onc is...
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acid%20growth
Acid growth refers to the ability of plant cells and plant cell walls to elongate or expand quickly at low (acidic) pH. The cell wall needs to be modified in order to maintain the turgor pressure. This modification is controlled by plant hormones like auxin. Auxin also controls the expression of some cell wall genes. T...

Adapter molecule crk also known as proto-oncogene c-Crk is a protein that in humans is encoded by the CRK gene. The CRK protein participates in the Reelin signaling cascade downstream of DAB1. Function Adapter molecule crk is a member of an adapter protein family that binds to several tyrosine-phosphorylated protei...
