Nonsymmetric


Definition:

  • (20) The existence of nonsymmetric transport (uptake is more inhibited than release) is postulated for the myocyte, as well as for the endothelial cell plasma membrane.

Symmetric


Definition:

  • (a.) Symmetrical.

Example Sentences:

  • (7) The Soret MCD of the reduced protein is interpreted as th sum of two MCD curves: an intense, asymmetric MCD band very similar to that exhibited by deoxymyoglobin which we assign to paramagnetic high spin cytochrome a3(2+) and a weaker, more symmetric MCD contribution, which is attributed to diamagnetic low spin cytochrome a2+.
  • (8) In the perineuronal neuropil of large pyramidal neurons (layers V-VI) there appear symmetric synapses with pyramidal cells, dendritic processes and dendritic spines.
