Example sentences for: chimeric

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

  • pCMV5 expression vectors containing Rab24 and Rab1B were engineered by overlap-extension PCR to encode the following chimeric proteins: Rab24/Rab1B, consisting of residues 1-165 of Rab24 [ 24 ] fused to residues 163-201 from Rab1B [ 80 ] ; Rab24(D123I)/Rab1B, consisting of residues 1-165 of Rab24 with the D123I substitution, fused to residues 163-201 of Rab1B; Rab1B/Rab24, consisting of residues 1-162 of Rab1B fused to residues 166-203 of Rab24; and Rab1B(N121I)/Rab24, consisting of residues 1-162 of Rab1B with the N121I substitution, fused to residues 166-203 of Rab24.

  • In marine invertebrates, chimeric individuals often arise from the fusion of individuals later in development (Buss 1987).

  • Assembly of chimeric heterodimers formed by mixing subunits of HIV-1 RT and FIV-1 RT, has demonstrated that the p51 subunit of HIV-1 RT helps to preserve the functional integrity of the HIV-1 RT heterodimer [ 18 ] . Despite the fact that several functions have been proposed for the p51 subunit, the mechanism whereby p51 performs these functions has remained largely undefined.

  • However, these products generally resulted in successful amplification after their use as template in the second round amplification when the universal sequences introduced as overhangs of the chimeric primers during the first round amplification were used.

  • In the past few years, a number of phosphatase activities and putative sequences have been reported in P. falciparum [ 9 ] . These include a PP2A [ 10 ] , a PP2B-like activity [ 10 ] , a unique chimeric PP2C [ 11 ] , two putative sexual-stage phosphatases - PPα [ 12 ] and PPβ [ 13 ] , and a tetratricopeptide repeat-containing phosphatase, PP5 [ 14 ] . Preliminary studies revealed the presence of a protein phosphatase activity in crude extracts of RBC-grown P. falciparum that exhibited toxin-sensitivity resembling that of PP1 [ 15 ] . Uninfected RBC, in contrast, possessed mainly a PP2A-like activity.
