A cytosolic isocitrate-dehydrogenase isoform. Certain cancer-associated variants acquire an altered catalytic activity producing 2-hydroxyglutarate.[ref]
Cancer-associated IDH1 mutations produce 2-hydroxyglutarate by Lenny Dang and others. Biochemical characterization of mutant enzyme
An extraembryonic endodermal epithelium associated with early mammalian development. It supplies signals and matrix and must be distinguished from definitive endoderm formed through gastrulation.
A hydrosilylation cycle involving Si–H oxidative addition, alkene insertion into the metal–hydride bond, and C–Si reductive elimination. This defines the conventional version; insertion into a metal–silyl bond describes a modified alternative.
ATP hydrolysis converts ATP with water to products commonly including ADP and inorganic phosphate. Its available Gibbs free energy depends on chemical conditions and can drive a coupled process; ATP binding and hydrolysis can have distinct structural roles.
GTP hydrolysis converts GTP with water to GDP and inorganic phosphate. In many signaling G proteins, it favors a switch toward an inactive effector-binding state.
Cleavage of an ester using water, yielding a carboxylic acid or carboxylate and an alcohol, depending on conditions.
Hydrolytic deamination replaces an amino group using water, releasing Ammonia or ammonium according to pH. Adenosine deaminase introduces solvent oxygen at the C6 position of adenosine.
Aqueous hydrogen iodide is strongly acidic, and iodide can also participate in reductive transformations. These roles must be separated when explaining a reaction.
The gaseous hydrogen halide consisting of one hydrogen atom and one bromine atom. Its molecular vibration can be studied through its vibrational fundamental and weak vibrational overtones. The aqueous acid and the isolated diatomic molecule should be distinguished when specifying a dissociation process.[ref]
The diatomic molecule containing one hydrogen atom and one iodine atom. Its measured spectroscopic wavenumbers include anharmonic corrections beyond the two-term Morse oscillator model.[ref]
Hydrogen iodide: Constants of diatomic molecules by Klaus P. Huber and others. Ground-state diatomic constants and higher anharmonic coefficients
Hydrogen-bond complementarity matches donor and acceptor positions in a binding interface. Two strong sites need not cooperate if their spacing or direction is incompatible; preorganization can favor a multiply hydrogen-bonded complex.
An aminopyridine hydrogen-bonded dimer is a pair of aminopyridine molecules joined by complementary amino-group donors and pyridine-nitrogen acceptors. In a suitable self-complementary arrangement, each molecule supplies both a donor and an acceptor.
Two reciprocal hydrogen bonds can stabilize the pair, but solvent competition and concentration affect its abundance. A drawn dimer establishes a possible contact pattern; it does not by itself establish a quantitative association constant.
In a fixed attractive Coulomb potential, neglecting electron-electron interactions leaves hydrogenic one-particle levels with spin-inclusive degeneracy . The Pauli exclusion principle fills these levels in increasing energy. A partially filled degenerate shell gives many states at the same total energy; the first higher energy requires promotion to a different principal shell. This model does not describe the screening and configuration-dependent energies of a real many-electron atom.
With Bohr radius , define . For regular radial bound states the radial inner product and compatible domains give the displayed factorization. Expanding the first-order factors produces the centrifugal term and Coulomb term . factorization converts a second-order spectral problem into a positivity bound and first-order terminating-state equation.
Pinned article: Introduction to the OurBigBook Project
Welcome to the OurBigBook Project! Our goal is to create the perfect publishing platform for STEM subjects, and get university-level students to write the best free STEM tutorials ever.
Everyone is welcome to create an account and play with the site: ourbigbook.com/go/register. We belive that students themselves can write amazing tutorials, but teachers are welcome too. You can write about anything you want, it doesn't have to be STEM or even educational. Silly test content is very welcome and you won't be penalized in any way. Just keep it legal!
Intro to OurBigBook
. Source. We have two killer features:
- topics: topics group articles by different users with the same title, e.g. here is the topic for the "Fundamental Theorem of Calculus" ourbigbook.com/go/topic/fundamental-theorem-of-calculusArticles of different users are sorted by upvote within each article page. This feature is a bit like:
- a Wikipedia where each user can have their own version of each article
- a Q&A website like Stack Overflow, where multiple people can give their views on a given topic, and the best ones are sorted by upvote. Except you don't need to wait for someone to ask first, and any topic goes, no matter how narrow or broad
This feature makes it possible for readers to find better explanations of any topic created by other writers. And it allows writers to create an explanation in a place that readers might actually find it.Figure 1. Screenshot of the "Derivative" topic page.

Source. - local editing: you can store all your personal knowledge base content locally in a plaintext markup format that can be edited locally and published either:This way you can be sure that even if OurBigBook.com were to go down one day (which we have no plans to do as it is quite cheap to host!), your content will still be perfectly readable as a static site.
- to OurBigBook.com to get awesome multi-user features like topics and likes
- as HTML files to a static website, which you can host yourself for free on many external providers like GitHub Pages, and remain in full control
