Example sentences for: interfering

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

  • In contrast to the ubiquitous DDRP, cellular RDRPs that are involved in PTGS so far have been detected only in eukaryotes [ 1 26 ] . The PTGS phenomenon covers a variety of complementarity-dependent silencing pathways, such as RNA interference (RNAi) in animals and slime mold, co-suppression (silencing of transgene and the corresponding endogenous genes) and virus gene resistance in plants, and quelling in fungi, all of which share a common mechanism of RNA turnover [ 28 37 38 39 40 ] . Essentially, double-stranded (ds) RNA, which is formed in these processes, triggers the activation of a sequence-specific RNA degradation system, which targets homologous RNAs [ 41 42 ] . The dsRNA is broken down by the Dicer enzyme into 21-25 nucleotide (nt) fragments called small interfering RNA or siRNAs [ 43 44 45 ] . The siRNAs subsequently associate with a complex of proteins called RISC and target homologous RNA by serving as guides for multiple rounds of RNA cleavage [ 45 46 ] .

  • As these two proteins are interfering with tissue healing, the luciferase gene was used to study the local tissue damage caused by the two transfection methods.

  • In this communication, we establish 21-nucleotide long double-stranded interfering RNA as a viable tool to ablate specific cytoplasmic RNAs, as exemplified by the mRNAs of a RNA virus.

  • CC-1065 (Figure 1) is among the most potent antitumor agents discovered [ 9 10 11 12 13 ] . It binds to double-stranded B-DNA within the minor groove with a sequence preference for 5'-d(A/GNTTA)-3' and 5'-d(AAAAA)-3', and alkylates the N3 position of the 3'-adenine with its left-hand CPI segment [ 14 15 ] . CC-1065 also inhibits gene transcription by interfering with binding of the TATA box-binding protein to its target DNA [ 16 ] . Despite its high potency and broad spectrum of antitumor activity, CC-1065 cannot be used in humans because it causes delayed death in experimental animals [ 17 ] . To pursue compounds possessing the potent antitumor activity but devoid of the toxic side effects of the parent compound, many CC-1065 analogues have been synthesized [ 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 ] .

  • However, some particular cases have been studied [ 30 31 32 ] , mostly related to recombination and reassortment [ 33 34 35 36 ] and to the dynamic of defective interfering particles [ 37 38 39 40 41 ] . In this paper, we modify the quasispecies model by incorporating phenotypic hiding between wild-type virus and a deleterious mutant.
