    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Photosynthesis

    Photosynthesis ( / ˌfoʊtəˈsɪnθəsɪs / FOH-tə-SINTH-ə-sis) [1] is a system of biological processes by which photosynthetic organisms, such as most plants, algae, and cyanobacteria, convert light energy, typically from sunlight, into the chemical energy necessary to fuel their activities.

  3. PARP1 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PARP1

    PARP1. Poly [ADP-ribose] polymerase 1 ( PARP-1) also known as NAD+ ADP-ribosyltransferase 1 or poly [ADP-ribose] synthase 1 is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the PARP1 gene. [5] It is the most abundant of the PARP family of enzymes, accounting for 90% of the NAD+ used by the family. [6]

  4. Cyclic ADP-ribose - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cyclic_ADP-ribose

    Cyclic ADP-ribose, frequently abbreviated as cADPR, is a cyclic adenine nucleotide (like cAMP) with two phosphate groups present on 5' OH of the adenosine (like ADP), further connected to another ribose at the 5' position, which, in turn, closes the cycle by glycosidic bonding to the nitrogen 1 (N 1) of the same adenine base (whose position N 9 has the glycosidic bond to the other ribose).

  5. ADP ribosylation factor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ADP_ribosylation_factor

    ADP ribosylation factors ( ARFs) are members of the ARF family of GTP-binding proteins of the Ras superfamily. ARF family proteins are ubiquitous in eukaryotic cells, and six highly conserved members of the family have been identified in mammalian cells. Although ARFs are soluble, they generally associate with membranes because of N-terminus ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/P2Y12

    View/Edit Mouse. P2Y12 is a chemoreceptor for adenosine diphosphate (ADP) [5] [6] that belongs to the G i class of a group of G protein-coupled (GPCR) purinergic receptors. [7] This P2Y receptor family has several receptor subtypes with different pharmacological selectivity, which overlaps in some cases, for various adenosine and uridine ...

  7. Air displacement plethysmography - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Air_Displacement_Plethysmo...

    Air displacement plethysmography (ADP, also known as whole-body air displacement plethysmography) is a recognized and scientifically validated densitometric method to measure human body composition. ADP is based on the same principles as the gold standard method of hydrostatic weighing , but through a densitometric technique that uses air ...
