Example sentences for: impairing

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

  • This inability to dimerize substantially decreases the enzymes affinity for DNA consequently impairing its polymerase and RNase H activities.

  • Data presented here show that CAP remains bound to HIV-1 after removal of unreacted compound, impairing virus infectivity due to blockade of binding sites for cellular coreceptors CXCR4 and CCR5.

  • That is, while ADHD adults frequently have impairing H/I symptoms , the number and types of these behaviors seldom meet DSM-IV diagnostic criteria for the H/I or Combined subtype of ADHD.

  • PP2 is a serine/threonine phosphatase which dephosphorylates JNK during inflammatory cell signaling [ 19 ] , while MKP5 is a member of the dual specificity phosphatase family which selectively dephosphorylates stress activated MAP kinases including JNK [ 20 ] . The overexpression of these two phosphatases might contribute in part to the resistance of HL60/TLK286 by impairing the activity of JNK.

  • Earlier studies describing the underlying molecular mechanisms involved in the HIV-1 inhibitory effect of the candidate microbicide CAP indicated that this compound remains bound to HIV-1, impairing virus infectivity by blockade of binding sites for cellular coreceptors CXCR4 and CCR5 [ 8 ] . Results reported here further extend these findings and show that: 1) there is synergism between sCD4 and CAP for inhibition of virus infectivity; 2) CAP binding to HIV-1 leads to conformational changes in viral envelope glycoproteins resulting in the expression of functionally inert six-helix bundle structures.
