Example sentences for: glud

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

Because glutamate dehydrogenase recycles the neurotransmitter glutamate, the presence of GLUD2 may permit a higher neurotransmitter turnover and greater neuronal activity in hominoid brains than is possible in monkey brains, which lack GLUD2 , suggests Kaessmann.
This is the origin of GLUD2 , a retrogene derived from GLUD1 , which encodes glutamate dehydrogenase.
GLUD2 , which first appeared 18–23 million years ago in hominoids, probably immediately picked up a brain-specific promoter and then over the next few million years acquired two critical amino acid changes, explains Kaessmann.
These allow GLUD2 -encoded glutamate dehydrogenase to work better in the brain than the GLUD1 -encoded enzyme.
Kaessmann plans to search his extensive database of retrocopies in the human genome for other functional genes that could, like GLUD2 , be implicated in brain evolution.
