Exteins
|
D047669 |
[The (EXternal proTEIN) sequences flanking INTEINS, which are internal fragments of precursor proteins removed by PROTEIN SPLICING. Concomitantly, as the inteins are excised, the exteins are ligated to form mature proteins.

External Fixators
|
D016267 |
[External devices which hold wires or pins that are placed through one or both cortices of bone in order to hold the position of a fracture in proper alignment. These devices allow easy access to wounds, adjustment during the course of healing, and more functional use of the limbs involved.

Extracellular Fluid
|
D045604 |
[The fluid in spaces between the tissue cells, constituting about 16% of the weight of the body; closely similar in composition to LYMPH. (On-Line Medical Dictionary [Internet]. University of Newcastle upon Tyne (UK): The CancerWEB Project, Academic Medical Publishing; c1997-2003 [cited 2003 May 1]. Available from: http://cancerweb.ncl.ac.uk/omd/.)
, The fluid of the body that is outside of CELLS. It is the external environment for the cells.

Extracellular Matrix
|
D005109 |
[A meshwork-like substance found within the extracellular space and in association with the basement membrane of the cell surface. It promotes cellular proliferation and provides a supporting structure to which cells or cell lysates in culture dishes adhere.
] |
|
Extracellular Matrix Proteins
|
D016326 |
[Macromolecular organic compounds that contain carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen, and usually, sulfur. These macromolecules (proteins) form an intricate meshwork in which cells are embedded to construct tissues. Variations in the relative types of macromolecules and their organization determine the type of extracellular matrix, each adapted to the functional requirements of the tissue. The two main classes of macromolecules that form the extracellular matrix are: glycosaminoglycans, usually linked to proteins (proteoglycans), and fibrous proteins (e.g., COLLAGEN; ELASTIN; FIBRONECTINS; and LAMININ).

Extracellular Polymeric Substance Matrix
|
D000077317 |
[Secreted polymeric organic compounds by microorganisms. This secreted compound is mostly polysaccharides but may include proteins, lipids, and nucleic acids. Collectively formed matrix facilitates attachment of microbes to form various BIOFILM communities.
, Extracellular matrix formed by secreted polymeric organic compounds by microorganisms. This secreted compound is mostly polysaccharides but may include proteins, lipids, and nucleic acids. The matrix facilitates attachment of microbes to form various BIOFILM communities.

Extracellular Signal-Regulated MAP Kinases
|
D048049 |
[A mitogen-activated protein kinase subfamily that is widely expressed and plays a role in regulation of MEIOSIS; MITOSIS; and post mitotic functions in differentiated cells. The extracellular signal regulated MAP kinases are regulated by a broad variety of CELL SURFACE RECEPTORS and can be activated by certain CARCINOGENS.

|
Extracellular Space
|
D005110 |
[Interstitial space between cells, occupied by INTERSTITIAL FLUID as well as amorphous and fibrous substances. For organisms with a CELL WALL, the extracellular space includes everything outside of the CELL MEMBRANE including the PERIPLASM and the cell wall.

Extracellular Vesicles
|
D000067128 |
[Extracellular vesicles released from fragmenting apoptotic cells.
, Membrane limited structures derived from cell membranes and cytoplasmic material, and released into EXTRACELLULAR SPACE. They circulate through the EXTRACELLULAR FLUID and through the peripheral blood in the MICROVASCULATURE where cells, much larger, cannot, thereby affecting a variety of intercellular communication processes.

Extrachromosomal Inheritance
|
D005111 |
