Example sentences for: cell-wall

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

  • Two major subfamilies within this family, typified respectively by AcmB and S. aureus LytN, are predominantly restricted to the Gram-positive bacteria, and function as cell-wall hydrolases.

  • We sought to understand the evolutionary history of the proteins involved in cell-wall dynamics, because such an analysis could throw light on the emergence and diversification of this uniquely bacterial structure.

  • In addition to the genes involved in cell wall biosynthesis, which accounted for 30% of the characterized genes selected in this group, an additional 30% of the characterized genes encode proteins involved in protein glycosylation and secretion, while the remaining genes are involved in protein synthesis, cytoskeletal functions, and sterol and lipid biogenesis, all of which can be related to cell-wall and membrane synthesis.

  • However, this set of genes was not coordinately expressed during cell-cycle progression [ 54, 55], suggesting that these cell-wall genes may be regulated by a distinct mechanism in response to environmental conditions.

  • These include the cell-wall hydrolases typified by the Pal protein from streptococcal phages [ 24, 25] and the amidase domain of the bacterial and kinetoplastid GSPS [ 26].
