n
A substance (typically a peptide) designed to disrupt intracellular processes, providing information about the operation of pathways and networks within a cell.
n
(biochemistry) Initialism of phytohemagglutinin. [(biochemistry) Any hemagglutinin (lectin) of plant origin, but especially that found in many beans that has a physiological action]
n

n
A phosphoprotein found in the rod cells in the retina that modulates the phototransduction cascade by interacting with the beta and gamma subunits of the retinal G-protein transducin.

Note: Concept clusters like the one above are an experimental OneLook feature. We've grouped words and phrases into thousands of clusters based on a statistical analysis of how they are used in writing. Some of the words and concepts may be vulgar or offensive. The names of the clusters were written automatically and may not precisely describe every word within the cluster; furthermore, the clusters may be missing some entries that you'd normally associate with their names.
