Tanacetum
|
D031203 |
[A plant genus of the family ASTERACEAE. Some species of the CHRYSANTHEMUM and the old Pyrethrum genera have been reclassified to this genus. The common name of tansy usually refers to this but also forms part of the common name of other plants such as Tansy Ragwort (SENECIO) and Tansyaster (HAPLOPAPPUS).

Tanacetum parthenium
|

Tandem Affinity Purification
|
D000078791 |
[A technique used to isolate specific interacting partners of MACROMOLECULAR COMPLEXES that have been assembled with a tagged component (bait) that interacts with other partners in the complex. The interacting bait component is labeled with a dual-affinity tag that allows for capture of the complex by IMMUNOPRECIPITATION, followed by purification of only the partners of the complex interacting with the bait by affinity chromatography.

Tandem Mass Spectrometry
|
D053719 |
[A mass spectrometry technique using two (MS/MS) or more mass analyzers. With two in tandem, the precursor ions are mass-selected by a first mass analyzer, and focused into a collision region where they are then fragmented into product ions which are then characterized by a second mass analyzer. A variety of techniques are used to separate the compounds, ionize them, and introduce them to the first mass analyzer. For example, for in GC-MS/MS, GAS CHROMATOGRAPHY-MASS SPECTROMETRY is involved in separating relatively small compounds by GAS CHROMATOGRAPHY prior to injecting them into an ionization chamber for the mass selection.

Tandem Repeat Sequences
|
D020080 |
[Copies of DNA sequences which lie adjacent to each other in the same orientation (direct tandem repeats) or in the opposite direction to each other (INVERTED TANDEM REPEATS).

Tangier Disease
|
D013631 |
[An autosomal recessively inherited disorder caused by mutation of ATP-BINDING CASSETTE TRANSPORTERS involved in cellular cholesterol removal (reverse-cholesterol transport). It is characterized by near absence of ALPHA-LIPOPROTEINS (high-density lipoproteins) in blood. The massive tissue deposition of cholesterol esters results in HEPATOMEGALY; SPLENOMEGALY; RETINITIS PIGMENTOSA; large orange tonsils; and often sensory POLYNEUROPATHY. The disorder was first found among inhabitants of Tangier Island in the Chesapeake Bay, MD.

Tannerella
|
D000084422 |
[A genus of anaerobic, gram-negative bacteria in the family Tannerellaceae and phylum BACTEROIDETES. TANNERELLA FORSYTHIA, a known species of this genus, is a cause of PERIODONTAL DISEASES and associated with ESOPHAGEAL CANCER and BACTERIAL VAGINOSIS.

Tanning
|
D013633 |
[A process of preserving animal hides by chemical treatment (using vegetable tannins, metallic sulfates, and sulfurized phenol compounds, or syntans) to make them immune to bacterial attack, and subsequent treatments with fats and greases to make them pliable.

Tannins
|
D013634 |
[Polyphenolic compounds with molecular weights of around 500-3000 daltons and containing enough hydroxyl groups (1-2 per 100 MW) for effective cross linking of other compounds (ASTRINGENTS). The two main types are HYDROLYZABLE TANNINS and CONDENSED TANNINS. Historically, the term has applied to many compounds and plant extracts able to render skin COLLAGEN impervious to degradation. The word tannin derives from the Celtic word for OAK TREE which was used for leather processing.
