Example sentences for: binds

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

  • The relative gene order in this region is also highly conserved in many bacteria, especially the Gram-positives [ 11 ] . Although intergenic sequences in this region are conserved only among closely related organisms, the DnaA box is found in the non-coding regions flanking dnaA in most bacteria studied [ 12 ] . DnaA boxes are conserved nucleotide sequences (TTGTCCACA) where the DnaA protein binds to DNA, triggering events that ultimately lead to replication initiation and DNA synthesis [ 9 ] .

  • The recombinant Tn 5 transposase binds these ME sequences and, in the presence of Mg 2+, catalyzes the random insertion of the transposon into target DNA in a complex process that involves generating a 9 base pair staggered nick in the target.

  • Second, as developed above, preparations of N-CoR (1944-2453) generally contain truncated products, so sequences corresponding to the extreme N-CoR C-terminus (which binds ERβ) is markedly under-represented.

  • C/EBPα binds to and inhibits transcriptional activation by E2F [ 26 33 ] . The complex of E2F with the retinoblastoma-related p107 protein is prevalent in cycling cells.

  • In yeast and mammalian cells, GCN2 is a protein that senses amino acid starvation and brings about altered cell physiology in response to such starvation [ 24 25 ] . GCN2 is a protein kinase that phosphorylates the α subunit of the translation initiation factor eIF2 [ 26 ] . The GCN2 protein from yeasts, Drosophila , and mammals is composed of three domains: a pseudokinase domain that may function as a regulatory domain, a kinase domain, and a HisRS domain that shares significant similarity to histidyl-tRNA synthetases [ 27 28 29 30 ] . Studies of yeast GCN2 revealed that the HisRS domain binds uncharged tRNAs that accumulate when cells are starved for amino acids [ 31 32 ] . As a result the kinase domain is activated and phosphorylates eIF2α at Ser51.
