UI	MeSH Term	Description	Entries
D010957	Plasmids	Extrachromosomal, usually CIRCULAR DNA molecules that are self-replicating and transferable from one organism to another. They are found in a variety of bacterial, archaeal, fungal, algal, and plant species. They are used in GENETIC ENGINEERING as CLONING VECTORS.	Episomes,Episome,Plasmid
D003001	Cloning, Molecular	The insertion of recombinant DNA molecules from prokaryotic and/or eukaryotic sources into a replicating vehicle, such as a plasmid or virus vector, and the introduction of the resultant hybrid molecules into recipient cells without altering the viability of those cells.	Molecular Cloning
D000818	Animals	Unicellular or multicellular, heterotrophic organisms, that have sensation and the power of voluntary movement. Under the older five kingdom paradigm, Animalia was one of the kingdoms. Under the modern three domain model, Animalia represents one of the many groups in the domain EUKARYOTA.	Animal,Metazoa,Animalia
D016054	DNA, Protozoan	Deoxyribonucleic acid that makes up the genetic material of protozoa.	Protozoan DNA
D016254	Mutagenesis, Insertional	Mutagenesis where the mutation is caused by the introduction of foreign DNA sequences into a gene or extragenic sequence. This may occur spontaneously in vivo or be experimentally induced in vivo or in vitro. Proviral DNA insertions into or adjacent to a cellular proto-oncogene can interrupt GENETIC TRANSLATION of the coding sequences or interfere with recognition of regulatory elements and cause unregulated expression of the proto-oncogene resulting in tumor formation.

D016825	Chlamydomonas reinhardtii	A species of GREEN ALGAE. Delicate, hairlike appendages arise from the flagellar surface in these organisms.	Chlamydomonas reinhardii,Chlamydomonas reinhardius,Chlamydomonas reinhardtius,reinhardius, Chlamydomonas,reinhardtii, Chlamydomonas
D017125	Genes, Protozoan	The functional hereditary units of protozoa.	Protozoan Genes,Gene, Protozoan,Protozoan Gene
D017343	Genes, Plant	The functional hereditary units of PLANTS.	Plant Genes,Gene, Plant,Plant Gene
D018744	DNA, Plant	Deoxyribonucleic acid that makes up the genetic material of plants.	Plant DNA
