How can you use “enzymes” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:
It has been documented that a variety of proteolytic enzymes produced by malignant epithelial cells could have substantial impacts on the physical integrity or functions of the subjacent ME cells and the basement membrane [ 30 31 32 ] . In contrast, ME cells could influence the biological behavior of subjacent epithelial cells.
Although imatinib inhibits different kinases in various diseases (BCR-ABL in CML, KIT or PDGFR-alpha in gastrointestinal stromal tumors [GISTs], and PDGFR-alpha in hypereosinophilic syndrome [HES]) (reviewed in [14]), some tumors that become refractory to treatment with imatinib appear to have analogous secondary mutations in the kinase-coding domain of the genes encoding these three enzymes.
To combat these enzymes, β-lactamase inhibitors such as clavulanic acid, sulbactam, and tazobactam have been given in combination with a β-lactam containing antibiotic to treat bacterial infections [ 52 ] . One class of β-lactamases that are particularly unaffected by the known β-lactamase inhibitors and have been shown to hydrolyze almost all known β-lactam containing antibiotics including late generation carbapenems at high rates are the metallo-β-lactamases [ 14 15 16 17 18 19 ] . Although there are no reports of metallo-β-lactamases isolated from major pathogens [ 51 53 ] , these enzymes are produced by pathogens such as B. fragilis, S. maltophilia, and P. aeruginosa.
After multiple iterations, a PSI-BLAST search using the E. coli GshB (gi121663) as an initial query sequence found 509 sequences of enzymes in the ATP-grasp superfamily, to which the bacterial enzyme is known to belong, but no eukaryotic GshB sequences.
The activity of the mitochondrial respiratory chain enzymes, although mostly below the normal mean, was within the normal range in skeletal muscle with moderate increase (52%) in the activity of citrate synthase suggesting mitochondrial proliferation (Table 1).
