Example sentences for: cyclic
How can you use “cyclic” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:
The cyclic reinvasion model for long term persistence of a selfish genetic element through homing [ 38 ] suggests that the small Thermoplasma intein evolved through reduction from a large endonuclease containing intein similar to the one found in the pyrococcal A-ATPase.
CRE Cyclic Amp response element
In this regard, a recent study has demonstrated the ability of BMP-4 to inhibit cyclic AMP-stimulated androgen production by the cultured human theca cell line, presumably by activating BMP receptors (BMPR-IA, -IB, and -II) which are expressed in these cells [ 34 ] . Because theca derived androgen is required for follicle estrogen biosynthesis and has been implicated in ovary pathology [ 35 ] , it will be interesting to determine how the expression and functions of these TIC-specific BMPs are integrated into the overall processes of physiology and pathophysiology.
To evaluate the relevance of the experimental results obtained using PGC-2, we examined the effect of 4-AP on the progesterone output of primary GC cultures supplemented with either the membrane permeable cAMP analog, 8-(4-chlorophenylthio) adenosine-3',5'-cyclic monophosphorothioate (8-CPT-cAMP, 1 mM) or estradiol 17β (500 ng/ml).
Cyclic nucleotide-gated channels, for example, appear to exhibit functional dimerization of their cyclic nucleotide-binding domains [ 32 ] . The "RCK" domain of BK channels has a dimerization domain even though BK channels, too, are tetrameric at the level of the pore [ 33 ] . Finally, the GluR2 ligand-binding core has a dimerization interface in the crystal structure [ 34 ] . Evidence, including the clustering of residues involved in receptor desensitization at this interface, suggests that the dimerization is not just crystallographic but functional.
