PGK1
PGK1 (phosphoglycerate kinase 1, HGNC:8896) is an X-linked human gene (Xq21.1) encoding the glycolytic enzyme phosphoglycerate kinase (EC 2.7.2.3), which converts 1,3-bisphosphoglycerate to 3-phosphoglycerate while generating ATP; mutations cause X-linked recessive PGK1 deficiency.
PGLang
pgLang is the multidisciplinary creative company, record label, and production house cofounded by Kendrick Lamar and Dave Free in March 2020, known for its "at service company" positioning, releases via Interscope, Baby Keem signings, and Project 3 agency.

The PGM Hécate II, also known as the Hecate II, is a French bolt-action heavy sniper rifle in .50 BMG made by PGM Précision and named after the Greek goddess Hecate.
PGM-17 Thor
PGM-17 Thor, earlier SM-75, was an American liquid-fueled intermediate-range ballistic missile built by Douglas Aircraft and the first operational IRBM deployed by the West during the Cold War.
PGM-19 Jupiter
The PGM-19 Jupiter, also known as the Jupiter IRBM, was an American intermediate-range ballistic missile developed by the Army and operated by the Air Force from 1960 to 1963.
PGM1-CDG
PGM1-CDG (CDG-It, GSD XIV, OMIM 614921) is a rare autosomal recessive disorder of phosphoglucomutase 1 deficiency causing mixed glycogen storage and glycosylation disease, treated with D-galactose.
PGM3 deficiency
PGM3 deficiency (PGM3-CDG) is a rare autosomal recessive congenital disorder of glycosylation first reported in 2014, caused by hypomorphic PGM3 mutations that reduce UDP-GlcNAc and glycosylation, causing immunodeficiency, severe atopy with high IgE, autoimmunity, skeletal dysplasia, and hypomyelination.
PGRMC1
PGRMC1 (progesterone receptor membrane component 1), also called Hpr6.6 or 25-Dx, is a 195 amino acid single-pass transmembrane heme-binding MAPR family protein. Despite its name it does not directly bind progesterone; it stabilizes cytochromes P450, acts as a heme chaperone and mPRα adaptor, and is overexpressed in many cancers.
PGRS domain
PGRS domain (polymorphic GC-rich repetitive sequence): glycine-rich GGA-GGX repeat C-terminal domain of PE_PGRS proteins of Mycobacterium tuberculosis; sail-like PGII sandwich structure, ESX-5 secreted, interacts with host receptors such as TLR2.
PGSF IV Feeder, L.P.

pgvector
pgvector is an open-source PostgreSQL extension for vector similarity search, created by Andrew Kane in 2021, which adds a vector data type, distance functions, and HNSW and IVFFlat indexes.
PH
PH, also called the pH scale or potential of hydrogen, is a logarithmic measure of the acidity of an aqueous solution, where each unit is a tenfold change.
pH homeostasis in acidophilic archaea
pH homeostasis in acidophilic archaea is the set of mechanisms, from membrane exclusion to proton pumping and repair, that keeps the cytoplasm near neutral despite extreme external acidity.
pH imaging
pH imaging is an analytical technique that produces a pixel-wise map of pH across a sample, most often with pH-sensitive fluorescent probes in living cells.
PH indicator
pH indicator (acid-base indicator): weak acid or base whose acid and conjugate-base forms differ in color, shifting with pH; transition range about pKa ± 1; used in titrations and universal indicator; concept tied to Sørensen's 1909 pH scale.
PH meter
A pH meter is an electronic instrument that measures the acidity or alkalinity of a solution using a glass electrode paired with a reference electrode, converting the voltage to pH.
Pha Lai Power Complex
The Pha Lai Power Complex (Vietnamese: Nhiệt điện Phả Lại) is a coal-fired power station in Hai Duong Province, Vietnam, 65 km northeast of Hanoi, with 1,040 MW of capacity.
Pha Lai Thermal Power
Pha Lai Thermal Power (Vietnamese: Nhiệt điện Phả Lại) is a coal-fired power station in Chí Linh, Hải Phòng, Vietnam, with six units totaling 1,040 MW.
Pha That Luang
Pha That Luang (Lao: ພະທາດຫຼວງ, "Great Stupa") is a gold-covered Buddhist stupa in Vientiane, Laos, rebuilt in 1566, destroyed in 1828, and restored in the 1930s as the national symbol.

Phacoanaphylactic uveitis
Phacoanaphylactic uveitis, also called phacoantigenic or lens-induced uveitis, is a rare granulomatous eye inflammation triggered by lens proteins released after capsular rupture from trauma, surgery, or hypermature cataract; treated by removing lens material.
Phacochoerus
Phacochoerus is the African warthog genus of Suidae, holding two extant species: the widespread common warthog (Phacochoerus africanus) and the arid-adapted, incisor-less desert warthog (P. aethiopicus), which diverged 400,000–1,700,000 years ago per whole-genome data.
Phacoemulsification
Phacoemulsification: cataract removal by ultrasonic lens emulsification through a 2-3 mm incision, invented by Charles Kelman with Anton Banko from a Cavitron dental tool, first published 1967, now the dominant cataract technique.
Phacoemulsification cataract surgery
Phacoemulsification is a cataract surgery technique that emulsifies the eye's clouded lens with ultrasound through a small incision and implants a foldable artificial lens, used in over 97% of US cataract surgeries.
Phacops
Phacops is a Silurian–Devonian phacopid trilobite genus, also known historically for species now placed in Eldredgeops, distinguished by schizochroal eyes with large calcite doublet lenses and a hyper-compound visual system.
