Example sentences for: cation
How can you use “cation” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:
They are constitutively permeable to water, and also function as regulated non-selective cation channels [ 10 ] when gated by intracellular cyclic GMP [ 11 12 ] . Even though only a small proportion of the AQP1 channels that are present in the membrane appear to be available for cGMP-activation of the ionic conductance (1/56,000), model-based calculations nonetheless suggest that this contribution could be meaningful in a physiological setting [ 13 ] . Unlike transporters which move substantial amounts of substrate by design, ion channels function to change membrane potential by the net movement of relatively tiny amounts of charge (~10 picomoles per cm 2membrane to generate a change of 100 mV) [ 14 ] , hence the low proportion of active AQP1 ion channels is consistent with a functional goal of gated ionic signaling that is distinct from that of massive constitutive osmotic water permeability.
Temperature, pH, cation composition, salt concentration, substrate concentration, and inclusion of ATP and dNTPs were examined.
These data revealed that the consumption of dietary oils led to differences in the expression of a broad range of hippocampal genes that have been previously indicated to be involved in cell signaling and signal transduction, including cation transport, calcium binding, protein phosphorylation, protein kinases, and ATP- and GTP-binding as revealed by examining GO identifiers across all of the diet-regulated genes (Figure 2).
Domains such as potassium channels, pollen allergen Bra r II, mitochondrial carrier proteins, the cation (Ca 2+and Na +) pore region and nucleoside transporters suggest possible functions.
The serine substrate-binding region is highly conserved, as is a monovalent cation (MVC) binding region [ 7] coordinating with G232, F/Y306, and G/A/S308.
