Example sentences for: intrinsic

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

  • The expression of the family of BMPs (ligands, receptors and a binding protein) in the fundamental cell types of the dominant follicles (DF) argues for a physiological role of an intrinsic BMP in directing growth and cell fates in the DF.

  • Surprisingly, the proteasome itself harbors intrinsic deubiquitination activity (Eytan et al.

  • The predicted topological organization consists of six transmembrane domains with a hydrophobic loop between the fifth and sixth domain which lines the ion conducting pore [ 17 ] . VR1 has been expressed heterologously in several cell lines and has intrinsic sensitivity to thermal stimuli and to capsaicin (a pungent extract of the Capsicum pepper family) [ 18 ] . VR1 does not discriminate among monovalent cations [ 19 ] ; however, it exhibits a notable preference for divalent cations with a permeability sequence of Ca 2+> Mg 2+> Na +≈ K +≈ Cs + [ 9 ] . Ca 2+is especially important to VR1 function, as extracellular Ca 2+mediates desensitization [ 20 21 ] , a process which enables a neuron to adapt to specific stimuli by diminishing its overall response to a particular chemical or physical signal.

  • The replicative polymerase of herpes simplex virus (HSV) is comprised of catalytic (Pol) and processivity subunits (UL42) [ 9 11 ] . HSV Pol is responsible, in concert with other viral proteins, for regulating the fidelity of DNA replication by selecting the correct nucleotides for incorporation and by proofreading or editing mispaired nucleotides [ 20 ] . The Pol subunit contains intrinsic 3'-5' exonuclease activity [ 14 15 16 ] and the N-terminal region of the polypeptide encoding this function is highly conserved in other polymerases, containing three segments referred to as Exo motifs [ 3 26 ] .

  • However, these models have intrinsic problems that have become more apparent in the past few years, and require careful controls to avoid possible misinterpretation.
