Example sentences for: detergent
How can you use “detergent” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:
We utilized a monoclonal antibody screening method involving co-immunoprecipitation of integrins under non-stringent detergent conditions [ 30 31 ] . Using this approach, we have previously discovered specific associations between particular β1 integrins and other cell surface molecules including CD147/EMMPRIN [ 31 ] , and various tetraspanin (transmembrane-4 superfamily) proteins [ 30 32 33 ] . In this report we demonstrate for the first time that CD98 constitutively and specifically associates with intact β1 integrin heterodimers.
Previous authors preferred to use 1% Triton X-100, a relatively high concentration of detergent, because it is critical for rapid solubilization of the cell membrane and cessation of cell activity.
Spectrin and protein 4.1 form a complex with actin filaments [ 17 26 ] that may be important in signaling in additional to forming a physical link between the cytoskeletal network and the cell membrane [ 27 ] . Furthermore, PI4K activity has been shown to associate with the actin cytoskeleton by biochemical detergent extraction [ 28 ] and is thought to specifically localize with α3β1 integrin [ 29 ] . PI4K catalyzes the production of phosphatidylinositol-4-phosphate, an intermediate in multiple phosphatidylinositol signaling pathways which itself can interact with actin binding proteins to regulate microfilament polymerization [ 30 ] . Our work now suggests that the mRNAs of these proteins are all positioned in close association with the actin cytoskeleton to permit efficient localization of their protein products.
Therefore, the cells were suspended using EDTA before lipid analysis and extracted with detergent extraction buffer as described above.
Though BDM does not inhibit nm-myosinII, in permeabilized yeast ( S. cerviseae ) BDM has been shown to decrease incorporation of exogenous actin into the cytoskeleton [ 20 ] . This process of actin incorporation requires proteins involved in actin filament formation and proteins that may localize a nucleation complex [ 20 21 ] . To determine if BDM has a similar effect on actin incorporation in mammalian cells, and if so an effect on actin nucleation, spreading Swiss3T3 cells were treated briefly with a media control or 15 mM BDM and then permeabilized with the detergent saponin in the presence of fluorescently labeled actin.
