(n.) A surface of the second order, which is cut by certain planes in hyperbolas; also, the solid, bounded in part by such a surface.
(a.) Having some property that belongs to an hyperboloid or hyperbola.
Example Sentences:
(1) When the myoepithelial cells contract they force the axial protrusion forward and transform the papilla into a hyperboloidal configuration.
(2) The cup-shaped adhesive papillae of Distaplia occidentalis evert at the onset of metamorphosis and each transforms into a hyperboloidal configuration.
(3) It has been shown previously that the hyperboloid can be considered as a scaffold describing the parallel beta-barrel structure.
(4) The sinuses are subsequently arranged into 4 classes, according to their similarity to solids of revolution such as: semi-ellipsoid (class a: 15% of specimens); paraboloid (class b: 30%); hyperboloid (class c: 47%) and cone (class d: 8%).
(5) We calculate values of SLk for the helical wrapping of a constant length of DNA on protein surfaces having the shapes of cylinders and of ellipsoids and hyperboloids of revolution.
(6) This could be demonstrated by a simple structural principle of the myocardium namely the myocardium fibres and connective tissue strands are arranged in the form of intermeshed hyperboloids.
(7) Eight-stranded beta-sheets in nine protein structures containing "TIM (triose phosphate isomerase) barrels" are shown to be fitted satisfactorily by hyperboloids, the generating lines of which pass through the beta-strands.
(8) In addition, we show how the hyperboloid model and the ensuing formalism can serve to derive useful geometric and graphic tools for computer-aided protein design de novo.
(9) ER binding capacity tended to be correlated with age: this correlation could be described with a hyperboloid regression curve (r = -0.5931; 0.06 > p > 0.05).
(10) The beta barrel fits a simple hyperboloid model as other T.I.M.
(11) Basic design features of the beta-sheet portion in parallel alpha beta barrels in known protein structures are analysed in the context of a model of a regular hyperboloid.
(12) Simple parameterizations of the hyperboloid model are then used to determine the constraints that govern key parameters, such as the number of strands in the barrel, and to rationalize the remarkable conservation of strand number, observed to be eight, in nearly all the known examples of parallel beta-barrels.
(13) It has been shown that the shape of the beta-sheet portion of the barrel can be approximated by a hyperboloid.
(14) If the equatorial radius of the protein is fixed, change in shape from a cylinder to a hyperboloid increases SLk, while the corresponding change to an ellipsoid reduces SLk.
