Label	Id	Description
Liability, Legal	D016365	[Accountability and responsibility to another, enforceable by civil or criminal sanctions.]
Open Reading Frames	D016366	[Open reading frames that code for unidentified PROTEINS., A sequence of successive nucleotide triplets that are read as CODONS specifying AMINO ACIDS and begin with an INITIATOR CODON and end with a stop codon (CODON, TERMINATOR).]
Gene Components	D040461	[The parts of the gene sequence that carry out the different functions of the GENES.]
Baculoviridae	D016367	[Family of INSECT VIRUSES containing two subfamilies: Eubaculovirinae (occluded baculoviruses) and Nudibaculovirinae (nonoccluded baculoviruses). The Eubaculovirinae, which contain polyhedron-shaped inclusion bodies, have two genera: NUCLEOPOLYHEDROVIRUS and GRANULOVIRUS. Baculovirus vectors are used for expression of foreign genes in insects.]
DNA Viruses	D004267	[Viruses whose nucleic acid is DNA.]
Insect Viruses	D007304	[Viruses infecting insects, the largest family being BACULOVIRIDAE.]
Leptospira interrogans serovar autumnalis	D041301	[A serovar of the bacterial species LEPTOSPIRA INTERROGANS, whose primary host is the MOUSE.]
Frameshift Mutation	D016368	[A type of mutation in which a number of NUCLEOTIDES deleted from or inserted into a protein coding sequence is not divisible by three, thereby causing an alteration in the READING FRAMES of the entire coding sequence downstream of the mutation. These mutations may be induced by certain types of MUTAGENS or may occur spontaneously.]
Mutation	D009154	[Any detectable and heritable change in the genetic material that causes a change in the GENOTYPE and which is transmitted to daughter cells and to succeeding generations.]
Smear Layer	D016369	[Adherent debris produced when cutting the enamel or dentin in cavity preparation. It is about 1 micron thick and its composition reflects the underlying dentin, although different quantities and qualities of smear layer can be produced by the various instrumentation techniques. Its function is presumed to be protective, as it lowers dentin permeability. However, it masks the underlying dentin and interferes with attempts to bond dental material to the dentin.]
Dental Deposits	D003741	[Accumulations of microflora that lead to pathological plaque and calculus which cause PERIODONTAL DISEASES. It can be considered a type of BIOFILMS. It is subtly distinguished from the protective DENTAL PELLICLE.]
Magnetosomes	D055944	[Membrane-bound prokaryotic organelles of magnetotactic bacteria that contain chains of MAGNETITE crystals which orient the bacteria to geomagnetic fields.]
Organelles	D015388	[Specific particles of membrane-bound organized living substances present in eukaryotic cells, such as the MITOCHONDRIA; the GOLGI APPARATUS; ENDOPLASMIC RETICULUM; LYSOSOMES; PLASTIDS; and VACUOLES.]
Brain Tissue Transplantation	D016380	[Transference of brain tissue, either from a fetus or from a born individual, between individuals of the same species or between individuals of different species.]
Islets of Langerhans Transplantation	D016381	[The transference of pancreatic islets within an individual, between individuals of the same species, or between individuals of different species.]
Endocrine Surgical Procedures	D013507	[Surgery performed on any endocrine gland.]
Cell Transplantation	D017690	[Transference of cells within an individual, between individuals of the same species, or between individuals of different species.]
Orthodontic Appliance Design	D016382	[The planning, calculation, and creation of an apparatus for the purpose of correcting the placement or straightening of teeth.]
Technology, Dental	D013674	[The field of dentistry involved in procedures for designing and constructing dental appliances. It includes also the application of any technology to the field of dentistry.]
Orthodontics	D009970	[A dental specialty concerned with the prevention and correction of dental and oral anomalies (malocclusion).]
