Example sentences for: complement

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

  • However, four mutations on the right side and two on the left failed to give clones that complement ftsZ84 , suggesting that these lateral surfaces are important for the function of FtsZ in cell division.

  • This work fulfills their suggestion to quantify changes in tubulin isotype levels with the appropriate antibodies, and establishes a sensitive and accurate assay to complement mRNA assays and studies of the response of cultured cells to antimitotic drugs.

  • The RNA genome of RSV is about 15 kb long and contains 11 documented protein-coding genes [ 13 ] . Three viral proteins are minimally required to reconstitute the functional transcription complex of NNR viruses [ 3 ] : the nucleocapsid protein (N) that wraps the negative-strand genome RNA and its full-length complement, the positive-strand antigenome RNA, thus converting them into highly nuclease-resistant, chromatin-like templates; the large protein (L), which is the major subunit of the RdRP; and the phosphoprotein (P), which is the smaller subunit of RdRP and an essential transcription factor of L [ 19 20 21 22 ] . In RSV, optimal transcription, although not replication, additionally requires the transcription antitermination protein M2-1 [ 13 ] . In addition, cellular actin, and to a lesser extent, profilin, are also required for viral transcription [ 17 18 ] .

  • Additionally, we investigated whether the Pseudomonas homolog of LcrG, PcrG, could transcomplement an lcrG strain of Y. pestis . The opportunistic pathogen Pseudomonas aeruginosa utilizes a type III secretion system for intracellular delivery of toxins [ 21 22 23 ] that is the most similar to the Yersinia system [ 21 ] . Several components of the Pseudomonas system have been demonstrated to functionally complement genetic defects in the Yersinia homologs including the LcrV homolog, PcrV [ 24 25 ] . Homologs of LcrG and LcrV (i.e.

  • Aggrecan and versican are aggregating proteoglycans that are key constituents found in the extracellular matrix [ 41 ] . Both proteoglycans contain amino-terminal hyaluronic acid-binding regions, central core glycosaminoglycan attachment domains, and carboxyl-terminal domains containing EGF-like modules (one in aggrecan and two in versican), C-type lectin like modules and complement regulatory protein-like modules [ 49 50 ] . Fibulin-1 exhibits calcium-dependent binding to the carboxyl-terminal domain of aggrecan and versican [ 41 ] . The binding site of aggrecan to fibulin-1 maps to the type II EGF-like modules 8-9 and the carboxyl-terminal domain of fibulin-1 [ 41 ] . The binding site of versican to fibulin-1 maps to the type II EGF-like modules 2-8 of fibulin-1 [ 41 ] .
