What's the difference between linage and linkage?

Linage


Definition:

  • (n.) See Lineage.

Example Sentences:

  • (1) These results suggest that signal transduction pathways for IL2 and IL3 involve tyrosine phosphorylation of protein substrates common to both lymphoid and myeloid linages.
  • (2) Binding of Bestatin to cells in the histiocytic linage upregulates colony stimulating activity (both in vitro and in vivo), which subsequently increases hematopoietic and hematologic values.

Linkage


Definition:

  • (n.) The act of linking; the state of being linked; also, a system of links.
  • (n.) Manner of linking or of being linked; -- said of the union of atoms or radicals in the molecule.
  • (n.) A system of straight lines or bars, fastened together by joints, and having certain of their points fixed in a plane. It is used to describe straight lines and curves in the plane.

Example Sentences:

  • (1) The presence of O-glycosidic linkages between carbohydrate and protein in the DF3 antigenic site was further supported by the presence of NaBH4-sensitive sites.
  • (2) Twelve families with Wiskott-Aldrich syndrome (WAS) were studied by linkage analysis using 10 polymorphic marker loci from the X-chromosome pericentromeric region.
  • (3) A complex linkage between the cytoskeleton and the extracellular matrix is illustrated both in the cord forming Sertoli and granulosa cells, and in the adjacent mesenchymal cells.
  • (4) The assumption was also corroborated using reagents from a family in which DR3 and DQw2 were not found in the usually described linkage.
  • (5) This linkage information was used to design complementation tests to determine allelism with previously characterized complementation groups affecting sensitivity to radiation.
  • (6) Sensitivity and specificity were enhanced when we linked multiple predictors, but this linkage was seldom successful because few patients had more than one positive predictor.
  • (7) Analysis of the product by equilibrium density centrifugation and processive hydrolysis with snake venom phosphodiesterase suggested that the noncomplementary nucleotides were present in phosphodiester linkage.
  • (8) The same segments have been described to be responsible for the hexamer-hexamer linkage (Yu, M.-H. & Glazer, A.N.
  • (9) The two disorders may associate within families through genetic linkage or a failure of neurotransmitter homoeostasis.
  • (10) Isopycnic analyses of the ribonucleotide initiated fd DNA replication products demonstrated covalent linkage between the initiator RNA and newly synthesized DNA.
  • (11) The others had the structures galactosyl-galactosyl-xylosyl-4-methylumbelliferone and galactosyl-xylosyl-4-methylumbelliferone, respectively, representing the linkage region between the glycosaminoglycan chains and core protein, except that 4-methylumbelliferone replaced the amino acid.
  • (12) Absence of linkage in a large group of families shows that lamp genes are not involved in Salla disease.
  • (13) Because each linkage project is different, the modular nature of the software allows for better control of the programming process and development of unique strategies.
  • (14) Family clustering suggests a genetic pathogenesis, but linkage to HLA or other blood group markers has not been found.
  • (15) Biosynthesis of the two N-glycosyl linkage units involves dolichol monophosphate and dolicholdiphosphate-linked saccharide precursors.
  • (16) In addition, the distances between markers in the mouse and human were similar except for one region of the conserved linkage group where we could detect a larger distance in the mouse compared to the human.
  • (17) The inter-connecting linkage system develops postnatally, and the 'tip-linkages' are already found in one-week-old mice, suggesting that the critical organization of the micromechanics of the stereocilia matures rapidly during the postnatal period.
  • (18) Using molecular probes to examine somatic cell lines and recombinant inbred and congenic strains of mice, we have re-evaluated these linkage relationships.
