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

Leprecan is a proteoglycan that is associated with the basement membrane in chordates [ 20].
Similarly, we show that the animal extracellular matrix protein leprecan [ 20] defines a hitherto unknown family of protein hydroxylases that might be involved in the generation of substrates for protein glycosylation.
The conservation of all the residues implicated in catalysis in the biochemically uncharacterized proteins such as AlkB, EGL-9, leprecan and YbiX suggests they all catalyze oxidative reactions similar to those catalyzed by IPNS, DAOCS, CAS and related enzymes such as protein lysyl/prolyl hydroxylases, EFE and leucoanthocyanidin oxidases [ 1, 2].
Further iterations of the search using each of the detected proteins as a new query resulted in the detection of several more eukaryotic proteins, including EGL-9 and leprecan, several uncharacterized bacterial proteins and prolyl and lysyl hydroxylases.
We use sequence profile analysis [ 13, 14] to show that the DNA-repair protein AlkB, the extracellular matrix protein leprecan and the disease-resistance-related protein EGL-9 define new families of the 2OG-Fe(II) dioxygenase superfamily.
