Example sentences for: guanine

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

Amino acid substitutions in the N(T)KxD motif cause a drastic reduction in the affinity of Ras-related GTPases for guanine nucleotides [ 35 36 ] . When overexpressed in cultured cells, these mutant GTPases function as dominant-suppressors of their endogenous counterparts [ 26 27 31 ] , presumably because they can compete for interaction with effectors, exchange factors or docking proteins, but cannot cycle on and off membranes in a nucleotide-dependent manner.
The C-terminal 30 amino acids of Gα consist of the β6-α5 loop, followed by the α5 helix and finally several amino acids of flexible structure (Figure 1) [ 19 20 21 ] . The β6-α5 loop stabilizes the guanine ring of bound GDP or GTP, and mutations in this region affect guanine-nucleotide binding.
We wrote a PERL program (countGC.pl) that calculates the GC base content of a sequence as the portion of guanine and cytosine residues among all unambiguous (non-N) nucleotides in a sequence.
Identified components of the MEN include Tem1 (a GTP-binding protein), Lte1 (a putative guanine nucleotide releasing factor), Nud1 (a spindle-pole-body protein), Cdc15 (a protein kinase), Dbf2/Mob1 (a protein kinase complex), Cdc5 (a Polo-like protein kinase), and Cdc14 (a protein phosphatase).
An intuitive approach to the problem that examines sequence composition is to compare the guanine and cytosine (GC) base content of a sequence with other sequences from the species being studied.
