Example sentences for: dioxygenase

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

The initial step is rate limiting and is catalyzed by either of two enzymes: indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase or tryptophan 2,3-dioxygenase.
Tryptophan 2, 3 dioxygenase (TDO) is expressed predominantly in hepatic tissues and was the first inducible enzyme system discovered in mammals [ 1].
Under conditions in which there is induction of both indoleamine dioxygenase and NO synthase, an interplay of potential cross-pathway inhibitions are set in motion as illustrated in Figure 2. Nitric oxide inhibits indoleamine dioxygenase [ 41].
However, the potential to induce the dioxygenase in murine systems by IFN-γ exposure has been demonstrated when nitric oxide production is blocked [ 41].
This, together with the phyletic distributution of the AraC and 2OG-Fe(II) dioxygenase superfamilies, leads us to speculate that the 2OG-Fe(II) dioxygenase superfamily evolved from the AraC-like superfamily in bacteria through drastic sequence divergence that eliminated significant sequence similarity, followed by fixation of the modified active-site configuration.
