Example sentences for: cysteine-histidine

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

  • The RING fingers are characterized by four conserved cysteine-cysteine or cysteine-histidine pairs, which bind to two zinc molecules [ [ 35 36 ] ; Fig 7C].

  • Although the sequences other than the zinc binding sites are not well conserved, the overall three dimensional structures of all the characterized RING fingers are overwhelmingly similar, due to the conserved spacing between cysteine-histidine pair 2 and cysteine pair 3 and the tight zinc binding ability [ 37 38 39 40 41 42 ] . One common feature is that the RING finger structure brings the flanking N and C-peptides close together.

  • Cysteine-histidine pair 2 and cysteine pair 3 are separated by two amino acids.

  • In particular, cysteine pair 1 and pair 3 bind to one zinc, while cysteine-histidine pair 2 and cysteine pair 4 bind to the other zinc, thereby forming a unique cross-brace structure [ [ 36 ] ; Fig 7C].
