How can you use “kinase-defective” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:
To confirm that the kinase-defective receptors were functioning in a dominant-negative fashion, we studied the ability of CHO and CHO-MK cells to incorporate 3H-thymidine into DNA in response to IGF-I stimulation.
Overexpression of the wild-type IGF-IRs increased the number of colonies, and overexpressing the kinase-defective receptors reduced the number of colonies by 60% (Figure 1C).
Cells transfected with the kinase-defective IGF-IR showed a more benign morphology with no invasion of the capsule (Panel C and data not shown).
Initially, we tested Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells that had been stably transfected with expression vectors for kinase-inactive or wild type IGF-I receptors [ 53 ] . The parental CHO cell line expresses ~50,000 endogenous IGF-IRs, the transfected wild-type (CHO-WT) cell line expresses ~250,000 IGF-IRs, and the kinase-defective (CHO-MK) cell line expresses ~250,000 mutant IGF-IRs.
Very few apoptotic cells are seen in the CHO parental and CHO-WT cells, whereas apoptotic cells are seen throughout the tumor from the kinase-defective CHO-MK cells.
