Biology

Linker DNA In molecular biology, linker DNA is double-stranded DNA (38-53 base pairs long) in between two nucleosome cores that, in association with histone H1, holds the cores together. Linker DNA is seen as the string in the "beads and string model", whic ...
, the part of a genomic DNA strand that connects two nucleosomes *
Polylinker A multiple cloning site (MCS), also called a polylinker, is a short segment of DNA which contains many (up to ~20) restriction sites—a standard feature of engineered plasmids. Restriction sites within an MCS are typically unique, occurring onl ...
or multiple cloning site, a short segment of DNA with many restriction sites *
Signal transducing adaptor protein Signal transducing adaptor proteins (STAPs) are proteins that are accessory to main proteins in a signal transduction pathway. Adaptor proteins contain a variety of protein-binding modules that link protein-binding partners together and facilitat ...
, proteins that provide mechanisms by which receptors can amplify and regulate downstream effector proteins **
Linker of activated T cells The Linker for activation of T cells, also known as linker of activated T cells or LAT, is a protein involved in the T-cell antigen receptor signal transduction pathway which in humans is encoded by the ''LAT'' gene. Alternative splicing results ...
, a protein in the biochemical signaling path transferring signals from T cell antigen receptors **
