Words similar to binding-site
Example sentences for: binding-site
How can you use “binding-site” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:
The apposition of distant binding-site positions can be important to recruitment of the binding protein, for example, through formation of DNA secondary structure [ 29, 30, 31, 32], or to the interaction of the binding site with its binding protein [ 33].
In fact, CNCS clusters may be a powerful source of data for inferring transcription factor specificity, as specific binding-site motifs are likely to be locally over-represented in CNCS clusters with demonstrable enhancer function.
Some of the binding-site occurrences shown in Figure 6are likely to have occurred by chance (especially for sequences that are common in the genome, such as the Hap2/3/4p-, Mig1p-, and Msn2/Msn4p-binding sites).
Direct biological models of binding-site organization in TCRs, as exemplified by conserved word-pair templates, provided several advantages over naive statistical models based on sequence combinations in S. cerevisiae . Average gene-expression profiles showed that conserved word pairs were more specific predictors of gene expression (giving fewer false positives) than single or pairwise sequences derived from S. cerevisiae , indicating that conserved regions among these closely related Saccharomyces species were enriched for functional sequences.
Such binding-site differences, when present, would be promising candidates to underlie the QTL in which the gene resides.
