Amino acid
Amino acids are organic compounds that contain both amino and carboxylic acid functional groups.
See Birnaviridae and Amino acid
Animal
Animals are multicellular, eukaryotic organisms in the biological kingdom Animalia.
Apoptosis
Apoptosis (from falling off) is a form of programmed cell death that occurs in multicellular organisms and in some eukaryotic, single-celled microorganisms such as yeast.
See Birnaviridae and Apoptosis
Aquabirnavirus
Aquabirnavirus is a genus of viruses, in the family Birnaviridae.
See Birnaviridae and Aquabirnavirus
Avibirnavirus
Avibirnavirus is a genus of viruses in family Birnaviridae.
See Birnaviridae and Avibirnavirus
Blosnavirus
Blosnavirus is a genus of viruses, in the family Birnaviridae.
See Birnaviridae and Blosnavirus
C-terminus
The C-terminus (also known as the carboxyl-terminus, carboxy-terminus, C-terminal tail, carboxy tail, C-terminal end, or COOH-terminus) is the end of an amino acid chain (protein or polypeptide), terminated by a free carboxyl group (-COOH).
See Birnaviridae and C-terminus
Catalysis
Catalysis is the increase in rate of a chemical reaction due to an added substance known as a catalyst.
See Birnaviridae and Catalysis
Conserved sequence
In evolutionary biology, conserved sequences are identical or similar sequences in nucleic acids (DNA and RNA) or proteins across species (orthologous sequences), or within a genome (paralogous sequences), or between donor and receptor taxa (xenologous sequences).
See Birnaviridae and Conserved sequence
Double-stranded RNA viruses
Double-stranded RNA viruses (dsRNA viruses) are a polyphyletic group of viruses that have double-stranded genomes made of ribonucleic acid.
See Birnaviridae and Double-stranded RNA viruses
Endocytosis
Endocytosis is a cellular process in which substances are brought into the cell.
See Birnaviridae and Endocytosis
Entomobirnavirus
Entomobirnavirus is a genus of viruses in the family Birnaviridae.
See Birnaviridae and Entomobirnavirus
Epitope
An epitope, also known as antigenic determinant, is the part of an antigen that is recognized by the immune system, specifically by antibodies, B cells, or T cells.
Fish
A fish (fish or fishes) is an aquatic, anamniotic, gill-bearing vertebrate animal with swimming fins and a hard skull, but lacking limbs with digits.
Genetic code
The genetic code is the set of rules used by living cells to translate information encoded within genetic material (DNA or RNA sequences of nucleotide triplets, or codons) into proteins.
See Birnaviridae and Genetic code
Immune response
An immune response is a physiological reaction which occurs within an organism in the context of inflammation for the purpose of defending against exogenous factors.
See Birnaviridae and Immune response
Infectious bursal disease
Infectious bursal disease (IBD), also known as Gumboro disease, infectious bursitis, and infectious avian nephrosis, is a highly contagious disease of young chickens and turkeys caused by infectious bursal disease virus (IBDV), characterized by immunosuppression and mortality generally at 3 to 6 weeks of age.
See Birnaviridae and Infectious bursal disease
Infectious pancreatic necrosis
Infectious pancreatic necrosis (IPN) is a severe viral disease of salmonid fish.
See Birnaviridae and Infectious pancreatic necrosis
Infectious pancreatic necrosis virus
Infectious pancreatic necrosis virus (IPNV) is a double-stranded RNA virus from the family Birnaviridae, in the genus Aquabirnavirus.
See Birnaviridae and Infectious pancreatic necrosis virus
Molecular binding
Molecular binding is an attractive interaction between two molecules that results in a stable association in which the molecules are in close proximity to each other.
See Birnaviridae and Molecular binding
Monoclonal antibody
A monoclonal antibody (mAb, more rarely called moAb) is an antibody produced from a cell lineage made by cloning a unique white blood cell.
See Birnaviridae and Monoclonal antibody
Neutralizing antibody
A neutralizing antibody (NAb) is an antibody that defends a cell from a pathogen or infectious particle by neutralizing any effect it has biologically.
See Birnaviridae and Neutralizing antibody
Pathogen
In biology, a pathogen (πάθος, "suffering", "passion" and -γενής, "producer of"), in the oldest and broadest sense, is any organism or agent that can produce disease.
Peptide
Peptides are short chains of amino acids linked by peptide bonds.
Protease
A protease (also called a peptidase, proteinase, or proteolytic enzyme) is an enzyme that catalyzes proteolysis, breaking down proteins into smaller polypeptides or single amino acids, and spurring the formation of new protein products.
Protein
Proteins are large biomolecules and macromolecules that comprise one or more long chains of amino acid residues.
Protein secondary structure
Protein secondary structure is the local spatial conformation of the polypeptide backbone excluding the side chains.
See Birnaviridae and Protein secondary structure
Proteolysis
Proteolysis is the breakdown of proteins into smaller polypeptides or amino acids.
See Birnaviridae and Proteolysis
Recombinant DNA
Recombinant DNA (rDNA) molecules are DNA molecules formed by laboratory methods of genetic recombination (such as molecular cloning) that bring together genetic material from multiple sources, creating sequences that would not otherwise be found in the genome.
See Birnaviridae and Recombinant DNA
RNA-dependent RNA polymerase
RNA-dependent RNA polymerase (RdRp) or RNA replicase is an enzyme that catalyzes the replication of RNA from an RNA template.
See Birnaviridae and RNA-dependent RNA polymerase
Salmonidae
Salmonidae (lit. "salmon-like") is a family of ray-finned fish that constitutes the only currently extant family in the order Salmoniformes (lit. "salmon-shaped"), consisting of 11 extant genera and over 200 species collectively known as "salmonids" or "salmonoids".
See Birnaviridae and Salmonidae
Sequence alignment
In bioinformatics, a sequence alignment is a way of arranging the sequences of DNA, RNA, or protein to identify regions of similarity that may be a consequence of functional, structural, or evolutionary relationships between the sequences.
See Birnaviridae and Sequence alignment
Snakehead (fish)
The snakeheads are members of the freshwater perciform fish family Channidae, native to parts of Africa and Asia.
See Birnaviridae and Snakehead (fish)
Viral envelope
A viral envelope is the outermost layer of many types of viruses.
See Birnaviridae and Viral envelope
Viral protein
The term viral protein refers to both the products of the genome of a virus and any host proteins incorporated into the viral particle.
See Birnaviridae and Viral protein
