G-banding
G-banding, also called GTG banding, is a chromosome staining technique in which trypsin pretreatment followed by Giemsa staining produces characteristic light and dark bands, allowing identification of every chromosome and detection of structural abnormalities.
g-block
The g-block is a hypothetical region of the extended periodic table where the 5g orbital fills, beginning somewhere in the eighth period beyond element 120.
G-box binding protein, multifunctional mosaic region
The G-box binding protein, multifunctional mosaic region (MFMR) is a conserved region near the N terminus of plant bZIP transcription factors, proposed to regulate their activity.
G-code
G-code is a language of preparatory G and miscellaneous M codes used to program CNC machine tools and 3D printers, standardized as ISO 6983 and DIN 66025.
G-computation
G-computation, also called the parametric g-formula, is a statistical method for estimating the causal effect of a treatment from observational data, introduced by James Robins in 1986.
G-Dragon
G-Dragon (지드래곤, Kwon Ji-yong, born 1988, Seoul) is the South Korean rapper-producer leading BIGBANG and a solo artist behind Heartbreaker, Coup d'Etat, and the 2025 album Übermensch on Galaxy Corporation.
G-Eazy

G-EO
The G-EO is a stationary end-effector robotic gait trainer made by Reha Technology AG of Olten, Switzerland, using programmable footplates to simulate walking and stair climbing in rehabilitation.
G-factor (physics)
The g-factor, also called the g-value or dimensionless magnetic moment, is a dimensionless number relating a particle's or nucleus's magnetic moment to its angular momentum.
G-force
G-force, or gravitational force equivalent, is a measure of acceleration expressed as a multiple of standard gravity; despite the name, it is a ratio, not a force.

G-LOC
G-LOC, or G-induced loss of consciousness, is unconsciousness in pilots of high-performance aircraft caused by sustained G forces draining blood from the head, leaving about 28 seconds of incapacitation.
G-protein activation
G-protein activation: the GPCR-catalyzed GDP-to-GTP exchange on G alpha that splits the heterotrimer into G alpha-GTP and free G beta-gamma, amplifies signaling, and ends by GTP hydrolysis; Rodbell and Gilman won the 1994 Nobel Prize for its discovery.
G-protein-signaling modulator
G-protein-signaling modulator (GPSM) proteins GPSM1-4 (formerly AGS3, LGN, G18/AGS4, Pcp-2/L7) bind GDP-bound Gαi via GoLoco/GPR motifs as GDIs, regulating GPCR-independent signaling, cell division, immunity, and disease.
G-protein, gamma subunit-like domain
GGL (G-protein gamma subunit-like) domain, found in RGS6, RGS7, RGS9, RGS11 and EGL-10, is a Gγ-homologous alpha-helical domain that obligately binds Gβ5, unlike conventional Gγ subunits.
G-quadruplex
G-quadruplex (G4), four-stranded nucleic acid structure from guanine-rich DNA or RNA, built of stacked G-tetrads stabilized by K+ or Na+. Found at telomeres and promoters; regulates transcription and is targeted by anticancer drugs CX-5461 and QN-302.
