Example sentences for: acidophilum

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

  • Multiple sequence alignments of diverse intein sequences identified eight motifs composed of moderately conserved residues [ 18 28 ] . The A-ATPase A subunit of the Thermoplasma and Pyrococcus intein multiple sequence alignment (with manual modification) is shown in figure 1. The T. acidophilum intein (173 amino acids long) is among the shortest inteins known, and the alignment with other inteins reveals the absence of sequences homologous to the typical endonuclease motifs.

  • Using PSI-BLAST [ 27 ] with different inteins as seeds, divergent inteins with less than ten percent sequence identity as compared to the query sequence are recovered (data not shown); however, using this approach we did not discover any additional intein or homing endonuclease encoding genes in T. acidophilum.

  • Apparently, the small intein has been persisting in the Thermoplasma A-ATPase since the split between T. acidophilum and T. volcanium without the help of a homing endonuclease.

  • They live in hot and acidic environments, and are often found adhering to sulfur particles [ 19 ] . T. acidophilum grows optimally at 59°C and at an external pH between 1-2 [ 20 ] . A cytoplasmic pH of 5.5 has been measured indirectly [ 21 ] .

  • For example, the fusion between COG1788 and COG2057 (α and β subunits of acyl-CoA: acetate CoA transferase) is seen in the bacteria Escherichia coli, Deinococcus radiodurans and Bacillus halodurans , and in the archaea Aeropyrum pernix, Thermophilus acidophilum and Halobacterium sp.
