Example sentences for: hexokinase-mediated

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

In many organisms, mannose has been shown to be a substrate for hexokinases whereas 3- O -methylglucose is metabolized poorly, if at all, by hexokinases [ 62 65 ] . As a result, processes that are affected by mannose but not by 3- O -methylglucose have been postulated to be regulated via a hexokinase-mediated pathway(s) [ 19 31 32 ] . By this logic, the fact that seed storage lipid breakdown is repressed by the presence of mannose but not by 3- O -methylglucose could also be interpreted to mean that inhibition of seed storage lipid breakdown occurs via a hexokinase-mediated pathway.
In addition, a recent report indicates that mannose may affect some processes by sequestering phosphate, rather than by stimulating a hexokinase-mediated sugar-response pathway [ 66 ] . Although the mechanism by which mannose acts is uncertain at this time, the fact that it retards lipid breakdown when present at concentrations of only 1.4 mM indicates that the effects of mannose cannot be attributed to osmotic stress.
