Example sentences for: membrane-bound

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

  • To describe the possible effects of membrane potential and ion fluxes on cellular activity in Figure 5, we have introduced an electrical 'voltage' property (represented by the 'depol' (depolarization) process icon) of membrane-bound compartments and an ionic 'charge' property used to derive 'ion' icons from atom icons.

  • TRAIL can be expressed as a membrane-bound protein or solubilized by metalloendoproteinase cleavage.

  • For instance, the model of Figure 4introduces 'membrane-bound compartments' in order to model the dependence of the nuclear concentration of cyclin D1 on the complex kinetics of its synthesis, degradation and cytoplasmic-nuclear transport.

  • Unlike somatic ubiquitous hyaluronidases that are active only at acidic pH [ 8 ] , SPAM1 has hyaluronidase activity at both neutral and acidic pHs, which arise from two different regions within the hyaluronidase domain [ 4 ] . The neutral enzyme activity, which is predominant in insoluble membrane-bound SPAM1, is necessary for sperm to penetrate the hyaluronic acid (HA)-rich extracellular matrix of the cumulus cells surrounding the oocyte.

  • Strikingly, soluble cytoplasmic molecules could not pass freely along the TNTs (with actin tagged with green fluorescent protein being the only exception), whereas membrane-bound proteins were transferred along TNTs and detected in the receiving cells, further supporting the likelihood of membrane continuity between connected cells.
