unreferenced date September 2011 Affinity electrophoresis is a general name for many analytical methods used in biochemistry and biotechnology . Both qualitative and quantitative information may be obtained through affinity electrophoresis. The methods include the so called mobility shift electrophoresis, charge shift electrophoresis and affinity capillary electrophoresis . The methods are based on changes in the electrophoresis electrophoretic pattern of molecules mainly macromolecules through biospecific interaction or complex formation . The interaction or binding of a molecule, charged or uncharged, will normally change the electrophoretic properties of a molecule. Membrane proteins may be identified by a shift in mobility induced by a charged detergent . Nucleic acid s or nucleic acid fragments may be characterized by their affinity to other molecules. The methods has been used for estimation of binding constant s, as for instance in lectin affinity electrophoresis or characterization of molecules with specific features like glycan content or ligand binding.

Citations missing date September 2007 Globalize date December 2010 Affinity fraud includes investment fraud s that prey upon members of identifiable groups, such as religious or ethnic communities, language minorities, the elderly, or professional groups. The fraudsters who promote affinity scams frequently are or pretend to be members of the group. They often enlist respected community or religious leaders from within the group to spread the word about the scheme, by convincing those people that a fraudulent investment is legitimate and worthwhile. Many times, those leaders become unwitting victims of the fraudster s ruse. These scams exploit the trust and friendship that exist in groups of people who have something in common. Because of the tight knit structure of many groups, it can be difficult for regulators or law enforcement officials to detect an affinity scam. Victims often fail to notify authorities or pursue their legal remedies, and instead try to work things out within the group. This is particularly true where the fraudsters have used respected community or religious leaders to convince others to join the investment. Many affinity scams involve Ponzi scheme s or pyramid scheme s, where new investor money is used to make payments to earlier investors to give the illusion that the investment is successful.

In immunology , affinity maturation is the process by which B cell s produce antibodies with increased affinity for antigen during the course of an immune response. With repeated exposures to the same antigen, a host will produce antibodies of successively greater affinities. A secondary response can elicit antibodies with several logfold greater affinity than in a primary response. The main principles of the in vivo affinity maturation, namely mutation and selection , are utilised for the biotechnology biotechnological approach of the in vitro affinity maturation. In vivo affinity maturation The process is thought to involve two interrelated processes, occurring in the germinal centers of the secondary lymphoid organs Somatic hypermutation SHM Mutations in the variable, antigen binding coding sequences known as complementarity determining regions CDR of the immunoglobulin genes. The mutation rate is up to 1,000,000 times higher than in cell lines outside the lymphoid system. Although the exact mechanism of the somatic hypermutation is still not known, a major role for the Activation Induced Cytidine Deaminase has been discussed. The increased mutation rate result in 1 2 mutations per CDR and cell generation. The mutations alter the binding specificity and binding affinities of the resultant antibodies. ref name Teng2007 cite journal doi 10.1146 annurev.genet.41.110306.130340 author Teng, G. and Papavasiliou, F.N. year 2007 title Immunoglobulin Somatic Hypermutation journal Annu.

Unreferenced date October 2008 Affinity label is a molecule that is similar in structure to a particular substrate biochemistry substrate for a specific enzyme . It is considered to be a class of enzyme inactivators. These molecules covalently modify active site residues in order to elucidate the structure of the active site. These types of compounds are highly reactive and usually alkylate nucleophilic amino acids present in the enzyme. They are often indiscriminant in their action, therefore their usefulness is limited as they are non selective and therefore inherently toxic. Category Enzymes biochem stub ... more details
In mathematics , self affinity refers to a fractal whose pieces are scaled by different amounts in the x and y directions. We refer to these as being the 2 dimensional axes, like that of a grid. This means that in order to appreciate the self similarity of these fractal objects, they have to be rescaled using an anisotropic transformation. From http www.dictionary.com www.dictionary.com In physics and botany, the word anisotropy means of unequal physical properties along different axes . geometry stub Category Fractals fr Self affinit zh ... more details
distinguish affine space An affinity space is a place virtual or physical where informal learning takes place. According to James Paul Gee , affinity spaces are locations where groups of people are drawn together because of a shared, strong interest or engagement in a common activity. ref Gee, 2004 Gee, 2005 Gee & Hayes, 2009 ref Often but not always occurring online, affinity spaces encourage the sharing of knowledge or participation in a specific area, and informal learning is a common outcome. In his coining of the term, Gee takes the notion of participatory cultures and reframes it to the idea of space. To Gee, what is happening in these online cultures is not merely a culture and far different from a community. In Gee s view, the word community conjures up images of belongingness and membership ... 2 ref Gee has further found eleven hallmarks of what he terms affinity spaces.
