What does NT stand for?

Global demand for nucleotides in fiscal 2008, meanwhile, was approximately 21,000 tons, according to company estimates.

The ingredient accelerates the supply of nucleotides, which are urgently required for the process of nucleotide excision repair.

Shining UV light on the nucleotide converted it to another type, the researchers say.

Matsushita, which is best known for its Panasonic brand, said it had developed a technology to electronically identify sequence variations in DNA, called single nucleotide polymorphisms, or SNPs.

Their topics include in silico gene discovery, a whole genome-wide association study using a two-stage sequential selection methods, single nucleotide polymorphism tagging, measurement of the effects of genes and environments on complex traits, computer-assisted reading of DNA sequences, evaluation of DNA sequence variants of unknown biological significance, DNA variant databases, protein comparative sequence analysis and computer modeling, microbial protein characterization using peptide-mass fingerprinting, two-dimensional gel electrophoresis for discovery proteomics, decision support systems in clinical bioinformatics, and e-consulting.

Of renewed interest is the inability of the heart to replenish rapidly its adenine nucleotide pool once it has been diminished during a brief period of regional ischemia [2, 9].

Second, the frequency distributions shown in Figure 2 were mistakenly weighted by single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) frequencies for the population of cases provided in each source study.

The new study identified a genetic variant, or single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP), present in about 10 per cent of individuals.
