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

This fused dimer has the same RNA-binding and capsid assembly properties typical of coat protein itself, with the important difference that the two halves of the molecule can be manipulated separately.
The middle histidine of the histidine triad (His96 in human Fhit), which is critical for hydrolysis of ApppA by Fhit [ 14 16 ] , is not necessary for tumor suppression [ 17 18 ] . Nonetheless, wild-type and His96Asn forms of Fhit are saturated by ApppA in the low micromolar range and form stable complexes with non-hydrolyzable ApppA in which two ApppA analogs are bound per Fhit dimer and all phosphates cluster on one surface of the protein [ 16 ] . These observations suggested that Fhit-substrate complexes may be the active, signaling form of Fhit and that the function of the catalytically essential histidine may be to terminate the lifetime of signaling complexes [ 16 ] .
We therefore suspected that it might represent a dimer of VR1 subunits.
The 200 kDa band represents the homomeric VR1 dimer whereas the 180 kDa band represent the homomeric Δ2-52 dimer.
As shown in Figure 6C(second and third lanes), the addition of these compounds for 1 hr to the solution bathing the oocytes and to the homogenization solution did not modify the monomer:dimer ratio when compared to the control lane (p > 0.05, for 3 independent experiments).
