Words similar to cardiolipin

Example sentences for: cardiolipin

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

While novobiocin acts primarily as a DNA gyrase inhibitor, resistance is mediated by the concentration of phospholipids in the outer membrane, for which the cls gene (encoding cardiolipin synthase) is partly responsible [ 33 ] . Again, if selection had increased membrane permeability, sensitivity to novobiocin might have increased relative to the partially resistant ancestor.
This distinction suggests that tBid might localize to contact sites because of the arrangement of cardiolipin there.
Cardiolipin is present at much lower concentrations elsewhere in the outer membrane.
Indeed it was found that the targeting of tBid to mitochondria-like membranes occurs in the absence of proteins, yet depends upon cardiolipin being in a possibly unique structure as opposed to free cardiolipin [ 9 ] . The requirement for a specific cardiolipin structure that is likely defined by the contact site is consistent with our observation that no gold particles were found in regions stripped of the outer membrane exposing the cardiolipin-rich inner membrane.
The presence of cardiolipin has been implicated in the function of numerous mitochondrial proteins including, sites I and III of the electron transport chain, the adenine nucleotide transporter, the protein translocation machinery, and the localization of mitochondrial creatine kinase [ 19 20 21 22 ] .
