peptidyl transferase

a Peptidyl transferase is the primary enzymatic functional part of the ribosome, which forms peptide links between adjacent amino acids using tRNAs during the translation process of protein biosynthesis.
In Bacteria, the 50S (23S component) ribosome subunit contains the peptidyl transferase component and acts as a ribozyme.

In eukaryotic cells, the 60S (28S component) ribosome subunit contains the peptidyl transferase component and acts as the ribozyme.

Transferitis

A colloquial term describing when students who are just about to transfer cannot bring themselves to care about their current classes anymore. This apathy often occurs after they've already received a degree from their current college, but are stuck wrapping up general ed transfer credits.
It is really difficult for me to care what my level 100 history class wants to teach me when I'm a couple months away from transferring to a 4 year college. I think I have transferitis.

Transvestsite

Any internet site, role-playing game, or other form of non-personal electronic medium which allows the user to pose as virtually anyone. This is primarily enacted by males, especially in an early adolescent stage of development, who pretend to be females in hopes of attracting both unheard of amounts attention, and possibly cyber, due to their inherent need to act like a lonely, seducing, barely legal teen.

Why this occurs is unknown to modern science, but great strides are being made in the field by independent researchers. As of now, these facts are known: Any "female" who attempts to advertise that fact is, indeed, a male. Any female who cannot stop chatting with guys, about "guy things", such as cars, other women, or what they happen to be (or not be) wearing, is most likely a guy. There are cases, however, that this is proven false. further testing is required. And finally, any female who attempts anything sexual, blatantly or otherwise, is most likely a male.

If there is a victim of a transvestsite you know, few simple steps should be taken:
1) If they do not know their one night stand, or relationship, was with a transvestsite, do not tell them so, but rather allow them to continue in peace.
1b) If it is known that there was a transvestsite encounter, instead of the advertised, tell the victim that they were joking, and that it was a clever way to "break up".
2) Administer a reassuring therapy session, telling the victim that it was not their fault.
3) Repress any sort of memory of the incident, and advise the victim to do the same.
Jerry: Dude! I got some hot tail last night over MySpace!

Skippy: Who?

Jerry: Her name was "lovely for you".

Skippy: Oh, man... that's Chris...

Jerry: Chris...tine?

Skippy: No. Chris from English class. He's a transvestsite.

Jerry: oh.... Duuuude....
