Orn


Definition:

  • (v. t.) To ornament; to adorn.

Example Sentences:

  • (8) The ontogenetic development of the enzymes phosphate activated glutaminase (PAG), glutamate dehydrogenase (GLDH), glutamic-oxaloacetic-transaminase (GOT), glutamine synthetase (GS), and ornithine-delta-aminotransferase (Orn-T) was followed in cerebellum in vivo and in cultured cerebellar granule cells.
  • (9) Corresponding analogues containing an Asp (or Glu) residue in the 2-position and an Orn (or Lys) residue in the 4-position showed similar selectivity relationships, but better agreement between bio- and binding assay data.
