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

  • Distinct nAChR subtypes exist that can be stimulated by the neurotransmitter acetylcholine, the natural product nicotine, or by synthetic compounds [ 1 ] . nAChR is the prototype for a protein superfamily that includes the receptors for the excitatory amino acids glutamate and aspartate, the inhibitory amino-acids gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) and glycine, as well as the serotonin 5-HT 3 receptor [ 1 ] . Like most ligand-gated ion channels, nAChRs are homo- or hetero-pentameric, each monomer belonging to a pull of 8 alpha- or 3 beta-subunits (alpha 2-9 , beta 2-4 ). While each subunit has four transmembrane domains, the agonist binding sites are located at the subunit interfaces [ 2 ] . Both natural and synthetic ligands can display varied affinity for different receptor subtypes.

  • The total protein was extracted from approximately 10 7cells by vortexing with glass beads, then resolved by SDS-PAGE on 12% gel, and transferred to nitrocellulose at 55V in (25 mM Tris, 250 mM glycine, 0.1% SDS, and 20% methanol) for 1 hr at room temperature.

  • These bile acids are conjugated to either taurine or glycine before secretion into bile [ 4 ] , which is subsequently released into the small intestine.

  • The alignments generated in these searches consistently pointed to a region of approximately 150 amino acids that is conserved in all these proteins, with a characteristic motif of the form: GuXXoYhp + YXhXXhh (where G is glycine, Y-tyrosine, u is a tiny residue, h-hydrophobic, p is a polar residue, o is an alcohol residue, + is a basic residue, and X is any residue; Fig.

  • Whole-cell patch clamp recording was used to test the GluR1 fusion proteins for function in transiently transfected HEK 293 cells as previously described [ 41 ] . The external solution was (in mM): 150 NaCl, 3 KCl, 2 CaCl 2 , 1 MgCl 2 , 5 glucose, 0.002 glycine and 10 HEPES (pH 7.4).
