what is the exact meaning of the word "allocrite"?

Question

its a term in biochemistry and I can't find any dictionaries that have this word.

Answer 1

see from these lines quoted allocrite as solute -"ABC transporters comprise two transmembrane domains (TMDs) that form a pathway for allocrite (i.e., solute) transport across the membrane, ..."

so ti means allocrite means a solute :8)

Answer 2

Meaning Of Promptitude

Answer 3

I got the following section from a Biochemistry paper. Hope this helps.

"We prefer to usethe term allocrite, loosely derived from the Greek meaning compounds which are transported. This avoids the misuse of the word substrate since the coupling of ATP binding and hydrolysis does not involve enzymatic modi¢cation of the transported compound by the ABC transporter"

Answer 4

perhaps you are misspelling the word If so than this may be the word you are referring to and if not then my apologies.

Alacrity, noun. From the Latin alacritas meaning promptitude. Similar in meaning to its synonyms Velocity and Celerity, all three mean quickness in action or movement. Alacrity stresses promptness in response to a suggestion or command, cheerful and eager willingness, appropriate quickness, and in general the beginning of fast movement.
