Example sentences for: enzyme

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

  • Fabry disease is an X-linked disorder resulting in reduced activity of the lysosomal enzyme α-galactosidase A [ 1 2 ] . This results in the systemic accumulation of D-galatosyl conjugates, particularly globotriosylceramide (Gb3) [ 3 4 ] . Although the disorder is heterogeneous, patients suffer renal, cardiovascular and cerebrovascular complications [ 4 ] . Enzyme replacement therapy has recently shown to have an effect on resting cerebral blood flow abnormalities and on other organ systems functions [ 5 6 ] . In the cerebrovascular system there is an increased incidence of stroke together with vessel ectasia [ 7 ] . This may be related to the progressive accumulation of storage material in the cerebral vessel or possibly, may be due to an abnormality of vessel function [ 8 9 ] . The cerebrovascular complications are distributed predominantly in the posterior circulation with a progressive increase over time in the posterior distribution of small vessel disease as found on T 2 -weighted images or fluid attenuated inversion recovery (FLAIR) MR [ 7 10 11 ] . It likely that such high signal lesions on MR images represent ischemic small vessel disease, however, there are no neuropathological-radiological correlative studies confirming this assumption.

  • (I will never forget how horrified I was as a young student by the amounts of almost human-like blood flowing into my lab dish while dissecting tubeworms to analyze trophosome enzyme activity.)

  • The Stoffel fragment of Taq polymerase is a truncated portion of the enzyme which retains polymerase activity but lacks the 5'->3' exonuclease activity of Taq polymerase [ 14 ] . The Stoffel fragment does not cut at the lac operator as does Taq polymerase [ 3 ] . It might therefore be a good choice of polymerase for jumping PCR.

  • NSAIDs work, at least in part, by inhibiting cyclo-oxygenase, the enzyme that converts arachidonic acid to prostaglandins.

  • 4B), raising the possibility that this enzyme may have a role in controlling cell growth [ 34 ] and its expression may be regulated by a metabolic or nutritional signal [ 35 ] . The observation that Ppt1p levels rose and fell in parallel with mRNA levels suggests that Ppt1p expression is primarily controlled at the level of gene transcription.
