Junk DNA A term historically utilized by J some, to refer to portions of an organism’s
DNA that were not obviously genes (i.e., not transcribed into mRNA; thus not part of the DNA “tagged” with ESTs, etc.). However, it has recently been discovered that at least some of what was formerly called “junk DNA” (e.g., introns) helps enable more than one specific protein molecule to be expressed from certain genes.

Label (radioactive) A radioactive atom, introduced into molecule(s) in order to:
1.enable observation of that molecule’s metabolic transformation (within an organism). For example, if radioactive hydrogen in the form of water (known as deuterium) is supplied to a living cell, a series of “photographs” (e.g., taken via an electron microscope, which has photographic film in it that is sensitive to radiation) will reveal how rapidly that deuterium enters the cell, and into what structures within the cell that water is incorporated.
2.quantify the rate at which cetain (non-) radioactive atoms are being introduced into a polymer (e.g., DNA) that is being polymerized (manufactured) as part of a biological test or testing process (QPCR-Quantitative PCR, RT- PCR-Reverse Transcriptase PCR, etc.).

Laurate A medium chain length (i.e., C12) fatty acid that is naturally produced by coconut trees, oil palm trees, and certain species of wild plants.

Lecithin See LECITHIN (crude, mixture), LECITHIN
(refined, specific).
Lecithin (crude, mixture) A mixture of phospholipids (i.e., lecithin-phosphatidylcholine, cephalin, inositol phosphatides, glycerides, tocopherols, glucosides, and certain pigments). Historically, crude (mixture) lecithin has often been utilized commercially in food processing as an emulsifier, instantizing agent, and lubricating agent. Because leci- thin-phosphatidylcholine naturally contains
a high content of linoleic acid, consumption by humans of lecithin-phosphatidylcholine results in similar impact (e.g., lowered cholesterol levels in blood) as consumption of linoleic acid. Because dietary fats are generally not absorbed directly through the intestinal wall (when eaten), they must first be emulsified, to form micelles that can pass through the intestinal wall and thus be absorbed by the body. That emulsifica- tion/micelle-formation is aided by lecithin, since it is an emulsifier. See also LECITHIN

Lecithin (refined, specific) A by-product of the refining process for soybean oil (deoiled lecithin from processed soybeans is composed of approximately 20–25% phosphatidyl choline by weight). The lecithin molecule (i.e., phosphatidyl choline) naturally contains a high content of linoleic acid, so consumption of lecithin by humans results in similar impact (e.g., lowered cholesterol levels in blood) as consumption of linoleic acid. Because dietary fats are generally not absorbed directly through the intestinal wall (when eaten), they must first be emulsified to form micelles that can pass through the intestinal wall and be absorbed by the body. That emulsification/micelle-for- mation is aided by lecithin, since it is an emulsifier.
Lecithin (also known as phosphatidylcholine) is a source of choline when digested, and is a critical component of the lipoproteins that transport fat and cholesterol molecules in the bloodstream (e.g., from the digestive system, to body cells, to the liver, etc.). Lecithin (phosphatidylcholine) promotes synthesis of high-density lipoproteins (HDLP, also known as “good” cholesterol) by the liver, when it is consumed by humans. Phosphatidyl choline (PC) is involved in cell signal transduction (e.g., via which a cell reacts to an external chemical “signal”). Some other common dietary sources of
