Proteid
Definition:
(n.) One of a class of amorphous nitrogenous principles, containing, as a rule, a small amount of sulphur; an albuminoid, as blood fibrin, casein of milk, etc. Proteids are present in nearly all animal fluids and make up the greater part of animal tissues and organs. They are also important constituents of vegetable tissues. See 2d Note under Food.
Example Sentences:
(1) BTV antigen was dense in proteid yolk bodies and in the vitelline membrane of the developing oocytes.
(2) In the extracellular space of the tissue of the sponge Geodia cydonium, circular proteid particles are found which carry as subunits the aggregation factor and a series of glycosyltransferases.
(3) Cobaltous ions were not able to exchange the central atom of the metallo-proteide.
(4) The use and effectiveness of the nutrient was evaluated - globally - by a study of body weight according to the hydro-electrolytic balance and then - individually - by the balance of the intakes and secretions of the glucides, lipids and proteids.
(5) These dissimilar, separately derived droplets subsequently fuse, thus combining the materials that constitute the intraoocyte contribution to the proteid yolk.
