Example sentences for: ifkb

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

  • Searches of the Dictyostelium sequence databases revealed two potential GCN2-like genes that we named ifkA and ifkB (initiation factor kinase).

  • The insert in IfkA and IfkB is significantly longer than that of other GCN2 proteins.

  • GCN2 of yeast and mammals is a known sensor of amino acid starvation and regulates cellular responses to such starvation [ 24 25 ] . Using degenerate primers and PCR and database searching identified two GCN2-like genes in Dictyostelium , ifkA and ifkB . Thinking that one or both of these genes may play a role in sensing amino acid starvation and in initiating development, we carried out the work described herein to examine their functions.

  • Several primers were designed to amplify and sequence the 5'-upstream sequences of the ifkA and ifkB ORFs.

  • In contrast, IfkB begins at the kinase domain and is the only known GCN2-like protein that does not possess a pseudokinase domain.
