Example sentences for: catalyze

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

  • The MAOA and MAOB genes are located on the X chromosome (Xp11) [ 63 ] and code for enzymes that catalyze the deamination of biogenic amines including the neurotransmitters norephinephrine, dopamine and serotonin.

  • E. coli topoisomerase I can catalyze catenation of double-stranded DNA circles if the molecules contain single-strand scissions [ 15 16 ] . To test if the Top67 can carry out double-stranded DNA passage at enzyme cleavage sites across from the DNA nicks, the yield of DNA catenanes were compared with that obtained with topoisomerase I. In contrast to the relaxation activity, the catenating activity of Top67 shown in figure 6was as efficient as that of full-length topoisomerase I, and the addition of the ZD domain had no effect (Figure 6a).

  • Chorismate mutase, isochorismate mutase [ 4] and 4-amino, 4-deoxychorismate mutase [ 5], which all catalyze similar reactions, are common members of a group that we have called cyclohexadienyl mutase (Table 1).

  • The transcript encoding ornithine decar-boxylase (ODC), a known androgen target that catalyzes the rate-limiting step in polyamine biosynthesis [ 26], was induced coordinately with enzymes that catalyze downstream steps in polyamine synthetic pathway (spermine synthase, spermidine/spermine N 1-acetyltransferase, and S-adenosylmethionine decarboxylase) (Figure 5c).

  • The bacterial GshBs are most closely related to ribosomal S6 modification enzymes, which catalyze the addition of glutamate to the carboxyl terminus of ribosomal protein S6.
