How can you use “cyclases” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:
Using sequence profile searches we identify two conserved domains in the N-terminal extensions of the soluble guanylyl cyclases from animals.
We also identify the potential active site- and substrate interacting-residues and postulate that these enzymes are likely to catalyze a two-metal ion dependent reaction on structural scaffold that is completely different from that seen in the other two superfamilies of adenylyl cyclases.
At convergence, this search detected, in addition to the soluble guanylyl cyclases from the animals, several bacterial proteins, including certain methyl-accepting chemotaxis receptors from bacteria such as Desulfovibrio and Clostridium . Transitive searches initiated with the small bacterial proteins that entirely correspond to the N-terminal-most domain of the SGCs also recovered the same set of proteins as observed in the earlier search, with e <.01.
PSI-BLAST searches initiated with the C-terminal part of the SGC-specific extension (the region in between the above-detected N-terminal-most domain, and the C-terminal cyclase domain; human SGC1β, region: 200-370) recovered homologous regions from all other animal soluble guanylyl cyclases, and, additionally, N-terminal regions of histidine kinases from Nostoc and Anabaena species (eg.
The soluble guanylyl cyclases are important signaling molecules in animals that transduce signals mediated by the gaseous first messenger, nitric oxide [ 16 17 18 19 ] . In animals, NO functions as a neurotransmitter both in the central and peripheral nervous system.
