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

Sequencing of the npa2-1/sec13 allele identified a single G to A transition that changed a Gly to Arg at position 176 in the protein.
Missense mutations in the enzyme thymidine phosphorylase (TP) (Gly145 → Arg, Gly153 → Ser, Lys222 → Ser, Glu289 → Ala and a few others) have been found in multiple MNGIE patients, and are believed to cause the pathology [ 22].
The Gly145 → Arg substitution does not disrupt an absolutely conserved position as serine is also permitted, but it introduces a large, basic (and partly hydrophobic) residue that presumably diminishes at least one key function of TP.
Because Val and Met are both non-polar amino acids, and Ser and Gly are both polar and uncharged amino acids, those amino acid substitutions between ZAS-N and ZAS-C may result in minor changes in the tertiary structure of the zinc fingers which account for the subtle differences in the DNA binding properties of the ZAS-N and ZAS-C domains.
A stronger ligand could also be introduced in the position of Gly78, which seems to be the weakest ligand in the complex.
