Example sentences for: initiator

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

Core promoters are known to contain binding sites for proteins important for transcription initiation, and our first analysis of the sequence content of our set of 1,941 core promoters was to assess the representation of two well-established core promoter sequence motifs, the initiator (Inr) and the TATA box.
unknown, but it may have a role in cell division [ 11 ] . RNase P, which consists of the protein subunit RnpA and a catalytic RNA subunit, is essential for generating mature tRNAs by cleaving the 5'-terminal leader sequences of precursor tRNAs [ 16 ] . rpmH encodes ribosomal protein L34, and DnaA is the initiator protein for chromosome replication.
Of the various cytokines tested (TNFα, IFNγ, or sFasL), TNFα was the only potent initiator of CLENDO cell death.
In some cases, reassembly of a new ribosomal initiation complex after the terminator codon of the leader ORF serves to re-initiate translation at the initiator AUG codon for the main ORF, and thus two proteins are generated [ 39 ] . In other cases, leaky scanning by the ribosomal initiation complex bypasses the 5'-located leader ORF entirely, and only the "internal" ORF is translated [ 32 ] . In the case of fs-α 1S , we are not entirely certain which mechanism best applies.
Note that the initiator and TATA box are no longer identified, owing to the background model and the extended sequences, but that some of the other core motifs of Table 2are still highly statistically significant.
