Example sentences for: chaperone
How can you use “chaperone” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:
Supporting this notion, the in vitro transcription/translation of a plasmid encoding the closely related NO29 protein produces a product, presumably unmodified, with slow mobility that is similar to the mobility of NO29 extracted from cells [ 43 ] . The smaller-sized polypeptide of the NPM3 doublet is probably a degradation product, as is observed in analyses of the NO29 protein [ 43 ] . This subcellular localization of NPM3, together with the other results here, suggests that this protein is a molecular chaperone with functions in the nucleus.
Despite the rigors of first ladyhood, she always made time to chaperone class trips, organize slumber parties, and check that Chelsea swept up any popcorn she'd spilled in the White House screening room.
AlphaA and alphaB are members of the shsp family [ 7 ] . Previous studies have shown that the alpha-crystallin possesses molecular chaperone activity, binding to partially denatured proteins, both in vitro [ 5 ] and probably in vivo [ 6 ] , to inhibit further denaturation.
An illustration is provided by the gene KAR2 , which encodes an HSP70 protein-folding chaperone localized to the endo-plasmic reticulum (ER) that is known to respond to defects in ER secretion and to unfolded proteins in this organelle (see [ 23] for review).
Substoichiometric amounts of midasin have also been detected in isolated preparations of 60S preribosomal particles suggesting that it may play a role in maturation of 60S ribosome subunits [ 2 ] . Such a role for midasin as a nuclear chaperone involved in the assembly/disassembly of macromolecular complexes in the nucleus would be consistent with our localization data and with the known functions of other AAA proteins.
