Bio Term repulsion is Allelic arrangement of two linked heterozygous loci, in which each homologous chromosome has one mutant (a or b) and one wild-type (A or B) allele (ie. Ab/aB). Two linked heterozygous gene pairs in the arrangement, Ab/aB.Bio Term Balbiani ring is A large chromosome puff. The larger polytene chromosomal puffs. See chromosome puff.
Bio Term signal hypothesis is The major mechanism whereby proteins that insert into or cross a membrane are synthesized by a membrane-bound ribosome. The first thirteen to thirty-six amino acids synthesized, termed a signal peptide, are recognized by a signal recognition particle that draws the ribosome to the membrane surface by interaction with a docking protein. The signal peptide may later be removed from the protein.
Bio Term Cross-over is The site where two homologous DNA strands originating from homologous chromosomes are resealed to form the recombinant chromosome. The reciprocal exchange of genetic material to produce genetic recombinants. Sometimes abbreviated as X-over.
Bio Term hypermorph is A mutant with more than the normal amount of some gene product.
