What's the difference between strand and strippet?

Strand


Definition:

  • (n.) One of the twists, or strings, as of fibers, wires, etc., of which a rope is composed.
  • (v. t.) To break a strand of (a rope).
  • (n.) The shore, especially the beach of a sea, ocean, or large lake; rarely, the margin of a navigable river.
  • (v. t.) To drive on a strand; hence, to run aground; as, to strand a ship.
  • (v. i.) To drift, or be driven, on shore to run aground; as, the ship stranded at high water.

Example Sentences:

  • (2) Theoretical computations are performed of the intercalative binding of the neocarzinostatin chromophore (NCS) with the double-stranded oligonucleotides d(CGCG)2, d(GCGC)2, d(TATA)2 and d(ATAT)2.
  • (3) Single stranded DNA and RNA are hydrolyzed by the spinach endonuclease.
  • (4) The M 13 specific DNA present in minicells isolated several hours after infection consists of single stranded viral DNA and double stranded replicative forms in nearly equal amounts.

  • (8) Neutral sucrose density sedimentation patterns indicate that neutron-induced double strand-breaks sometimes occur in clusters of more than 100 in the same phage and that the effeciency with which double strand-breaks form is about 50 times that of gamma-induced double strand-breaks.
  • (9) Equilibrium and kinetic studies of the interaction of gene 32 protein of T4 phage with single-stranded fd DNA were performed monitoring the changes in protein fluorescence.

  • (11) Structural studies indicate that caveolae are decorated on their cytoplasmic surface by a unique array of filaments or strands that form striated coatings.
