Example sentences for: membrane-spanning

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

Molecular modeling suggested that this 'retention' motif - ExxHxR in the first and ExxNxR in the third membrane-spanning region - within all LHCPs and related proteins provides two ligands for Chl, an ion-pair between Glu (E) and Arg (R) and the sidechain of either His (H) or Asn (N).
The TMC protein family has eight members in vertebrates and forms three subfamilies, A, B, and C. TMCs are proteins with a conserved core of eight membrane-spanning domains.
The initial accumulation of LHCPs in the chloroplast envelope implies that Chl interacts with these proteins, likely by binding to the conserved motif in the first membrane-spanning region (helix-1) [ 25 26 ] when transit through the envelope is initiated.
Thus, all GOLD-domain proteins can be divided into two architectural categories: the p24-like category, in which the GOLD domains project into the lumen, anchored in the membrane by the membrane-spanning helix (category 1); and proteins in which the GOLD domain occurs at the extreme amino or carboxyl terminus, with additional domains that are known to interact with lipid membranes (category 2) (Figure 2).
The PRC-H subunit is a membrane-spanning protein with a single amino-terminal transmembrane helix [ 14, 15].
