https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hapten | Haptens (derived from the Greek haptein, meaning “to fasten”) are small molecules that elicit an immune response only when attached to a large carrier such as a protein; the carrier may be one that also does not elicit an immune response by itself. The mechanisms of absence of immune response may vary and involve compl... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acyclic%20dependencies%20principle | The acyclic dependencies principle (ADP) is a software design principle defined by Robert C. Martin that states that "the dependency graph of packages or components should have no cycles". This implies that the dependencies form a directed acyclic graph.
Example
In this UML package diagram, package A depends on pac... |

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vergina%20Sun | The Vergina Sun (), also known as the Star of Vergina, Vergina Star or Argead Star, is a rayed solar symbol first appearing in ancient Greek art of the period between the 6th and 2nd centuries BC. The Vergina Sun proper has sixteen triangular rays, while comparable symbols of the same period variously have sixteen, twe... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Putative%20actinobacterial%20holin-X%20family | The putative actinobacterial holin-X (Hol-X) family (TC# 1.E.34) was retrieved as a distant member of TC family 1.E.20, suggesting membership of the holin superfamily III. Most Hol-X proteins are less than 200 amino acyl residues (aas) in length and possess two transmembrane segments (TMSs). A representative list of pr... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Auberger%27s%20blood%20group | Auberger's blood group is a type of human blood group in which the Aua antigen is expressed. It is found in 82% of caucasians. It may be related to the Lutheran antigen system.
The blood group was named after patient Auberger, who was a 59-year-old French woman with oesophageal varices. |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TB9Cs6H2%20snoRNA | TB9Cs6H2 is a member of the H/ACA-like class of non-coding RNA (ncRNA) molecule that guide the sites of modification of uridines to pseudouridines of substrate RNAs. It is known as a small nucleolar RNA (snoRNA) thus named because of its cellular localization in the nucleolus of the eukaryotic cell. TB9Cs6H2 is predic... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AgentSheets | AgentSheets was one of the first modern block-based programming language for children. The idea of AgentSheets was to overcome syntactic challenges found in common text-based programming languages by using drag-and-drop mechanisms conceptualizing commands such as conditions and actions as editable blocks that could be ... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gapped%20Hamiltonian | In many-body physics, most commonly within condensed-matter physics, a gapped Hamiltonian is a Hamiltonian for an infinitely large many-body system where there is a finite energy gap separating the (possibly degenerate) ground space from the first excited states. A Hamiltonian that is not gapped is called gapless.
