Reactivity

... the electrostatic character of the substrate molecule, by utilizing its charged or non polar side chains. This in turn increases the rate of reactivity of the substrate and stabilizes the transition state. New to biology

... This gives a set of properties that account for its ability to support life, namely, solvency, cohesion, thermal stability, adhesion; chemical reactivity. [b] Solvency: [/b]Water is called a “universal solvent” because it dissolves more substances than any other liquid. As a solvent, it provides ...

... paper suggestions! An aside: Jim Coffman was my session chair at my first conference. Small world! :wink: Chaka8, FWIW I've never noticed cross-reactivity of morpholinos despite working with around a dozen of them...though I apparently haven't used the right controls. *nervous laugh* I assume ...

The reactivity of singlet oxygen is given by the extra energy which causes the spin of an electron to shift, changing the molecule from its natural triplet state to an energy-rich singlet state. The term "oxygen radical" ...

... on the fact that self-reactive lymphocytes are removed from the repertoire regardless of their genotype (strictly speaking, some degree of self-reactivity remains in some cells, but that's another story). Therefore, the so-called positive and negative selection in the thymus should probably ...
