How can you use “mads” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:
TGFβ signals through a heteromeric receptor complex of type II and type I receptor serine-threonine kinases, which activates the downstream Smad signal transduction pathway [ 7 ] . After TGFβ binding to the receptor complex, the TGFβ type II receptor kinase phosphorylates TGFβ type I receptor which inititates the downstream response by phosphorylating receptor-regulated Smads (R-Smads), such as Smad2 and Smad3.
In the past, these compounds have been widely used as specific p38 inhibitors [ 12 ] and their inhibitory action has been well documented [ 13 14 15 ] . However, recent results show that, in a comparable concentration range they inhibit the serine/threonine kinase activity of TGFβ type I receptor preventing phosphorylation of R-Smads [ 16 17 18 ] .
Of these five MADS, MADS-IV did not show any match with gene bank sequences and therefore appeared to be a novel DNA sequence.
Ten unique candidate MADS were identified and the sequence homologies found by searching the gene bank of these MADS are presented in Table 2. The search revealed 82-99% homology to known human gene sequences for nine of these MADS but MADS-IV was found to be novel, having no homology with the sequences in the gene banks.
Of the 10 MADS tested, only five (MADS-IV, MADS-VII, MADS-VIII, MADS-IX and MADS-X) were successfully mapped to specific human chromosomes (Table 2).
