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

One might expect a Hint-Asw heterodimer to have substantially less than 50% of the activity of a Hint homodimer if Hint homodimers showed cooperativity with respect to substrate binding and/or hydrolysis.
This arrangement suggests that the primordial RNA polymerase was a head to tail homodimer of a DPBB domain; a duplication of this primordial DPBB domain probably gave rise to the two DPBBs of modern DDRPs.
Rec12 (Spo11) protein shares homology with the catalytic (Top6A) subunit of Topoisomerase VI, which functions as a heterotetramer with Top6B [ 16 17 ] . However, no Top6B homolog is present in most eukaryotes and the Rec12 (Spo11) enzyme does not need to affect strand passage in the manner of canonical type II topoisomerases [ 11 ] . We therefore tested whether overexpression of rec12 +would lead to a hyper-recombination phenotype, thereby implicating function as a homodimer.
The RNase H activity seen in case of the p66 WT/p51 INSmutant was not surprising since the p66 WTsubunit of the p66 WT/p51 INSmutant tends to self-dimerize and form the catalytically active p66 homodimer.
The bacterial DDRPs have two α-subunits that form a homodimer at the "base" of the β-β' dimer and stabilize the catalytic-binding cleft.
