Words similar to gated

Example sentences for: gated

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

Sequence homology between the serotonin type 3 receptor (5-HT 3 R), the nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (nAChR), the GABA A receptor and the glycine receptor suggests a large amount of structural similarity within this superfamily of ligand gated ion channels [ 1 2 3 ] . This presumed structural homology can be used to guide site directed mutagenesis studies of particular receptor subtypes.
The noise level is similar to that observed in the cyclic nucleotide gated channels [ 28 ] , but is much higher than most other voltage and ligand gated channels.
But I don't understand how one would believe that this change that I am describing is only about gated communities, or a side-by-side network.
I say it is changing the Net by changing the architecture; you say it won't affect the commons, only the "gated communities" and "side-by-side" networks.
The AQP1-mediated ion conductance may contribute measurably to the function of tissues in which AQP1 is abundantly expressed, such as in the mammalian renal proximal tubule [ 13 ] . Further work is needed to assess the additional levels of regulatory control that may constrain the availability of the AQP1 proteins to serve as ion channels gated by cGMP, within a background of constitutive water channel activity.
