Example sentences for: acetylation

How can you use “acetylation” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:

Fourth, MeCP2 action on chromatin, as suggested by observed changes in histone acetylation [ 31 32 ] , may not involve protein coding genes that are represented on microarrays, but instead, may affect centromeric heterochromatin or the expression of small non-coding RNAs that are abundant in normal brain [ 33 ] . The results presented in this paper contradict the established model of MeCP2 function and necessitate a rethinking of strategies to unravel the pathologic process that leads to neuronal dysfunction in Rett syndrome.
It is not known whether SAHA alters the protein acetylation levels of various histones in the mammary epithelial cells.
We identified a novel mechanism for SAHA in cell growth arrest through inhibition in DNA synthesis, concomitant with significant increases in the nuclear localization of pRb-2/p130 associated with E2F-4, decreases in key molecules in DNA synthesis (E2F-1, PCNA and p21), and increases in histone H3 and H4 protein and acetylation levels.
For example, p53's DNA binding activity is increased by the DNA damage-induced acetylation of the C-terminal of p53 [ 16, 19], and this acetylation requires the prior phosphorylation of the N-terminal of p53 [ 16].
We did not, however, observe differences in the initial acetylation levels between untreated TM10 and TM2H cell lines.
