Example sentences for: cell-surface
How can you use “cell-surface” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:
Previously we have examined the protein-protein interactions of proHB-EGF with the cell-surface CD9 antigen [ 9 ] . The CD9 antigen is found on a wide variety of tissue and cell types and has been reported to be involved in such cellular processes as B-cell development, cell metastasis, platelet activation and adhesion, and cell motility [ 14 15 ] . CD9 antigen is a member of the tetraspanin superfamily and consists of two extracellular domains sandwiched between four highly-conserved hydrophobic transmembrane domains [ 14 15 ] . The second extracellular domain (75-130 amino acids) is larger than the first extracellular domain (20-27 amino acids).
The amino acid sequence of the heparin-binding region of HB-EGF ( 21KRKKKGKGLGKKRDPCLRKYK 41) [ 2 ] has been shown to have a strong affinity for heparin and may influence the interaction of this growth factor with cell-surface negatively charged heparan sulfate proteoglycans [ 22 ] . It remains to be seen whether specific/all of the EGF-like modules are required and whether calcium is needed for the interaction of HB-EGF with LTBP-3.
We have demonstrated previously that biologically active 125I-PEDF binds specifically, competitively and with high affinity to cell-surface receptors of Y-79 cells [ 18 ] . Because the reaction conditions were identical to those used for biological assays, the binding reactions were performed in the presence of media conditioned by the cells for 16 hours (CM).
Thus, in a recent report ionotropic AMPA glutamate receptors were shown to " ...function not only as ion channels but also as cell-surface transducers by means of their interaction with the Src-family non-receptor protein kinase Lyn.
Only mature memory cells, identified by the presence of CD45RO and the loss of CD27 cell-surface expression, have the capacity to secrete IFN-γ or IL-4 alone.
