translationally

1 8.1

In a way that studies how a gene becomes a protein

adverb
/trænˈsleɪʃənəli/

Specialized

: translacionalmente

In biological research, proteins are often modified translationally after synthesis to perform their specific functions.

Examples

Now it gets through post translationally and when it gets across, the signal is cleaved off.
The patterns observed in the data were translationally aligned, indicating a correlation across multiple experiments.
If these patterns are translationally periodic in more than One Direction, you can have higher symmetries.
In 1961, Walter Kohn, at the University of California at San Diego, showed that the cyclotron resonance frequency in a translationally invariant system is not affected by electron-electron interactions.

Academic text (1994)
To ensure accurate results, the scientists analyzed the data translationally within the experiment's parameters.

Surface Forms

translationally positive

Morphology

translationally = translational (semi-transparent) = translate + al + ly

Morphological formation is regular, but the exact sense (linguistic translation, biological translation, or physical movement) depends on domain knowledge, which reduces predictability for some learners.

Etymology

The word translationally shares the same root as translate: trans- 'across' plus a root for 'to carry', which gives the image of 'carrying across' meaning or effect. That's why in science translationally can mean applying results across fields, for example turning lab findings into treatments, describing how genes make proteins, or describing movement 'across' rather than turning.
