Example sentences for: moieties

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

  • In this method, biotin moieties were initially attached covalently to discrete regions on a solid surface.

  • FTI-1, an inhibitor of farnesyl transferase also known as L-744,832 [59], mimicked and potentiated statin-activated shedding, presumably by blocking transfer of isoprenoid moieties to a Rho protein by farnesyl transferase, and thereby decreasing Rho activity.

  • A dimer of MoeB adenylates the MoaD subunits of molybdopterin synthase that, after the conversion of these AMP moieties to thiocarboxylates by a sulfurtransferase, goes on to convert precursor Z to molybdopterin (MPT) [ 5 6 ] . Molybdopterin synthase is a heterotetrameric protein composed of two units each of MoaD and MoaE.

  • We need to improve the current detection limit for organic moieties (Figure 1), estimated at 3 × 10 6cells per gram of soil.

  • Analysis of biophores #1, #2 (#4, #5) showed that both of them occur in substituted 5-[4-(benzyloxy) phenyl]-1,3,4-oxadiazol-2-(3H)-ones and their analogs (Figure 1), many of which are known to be strong MAO-B inhibitors [ 9 ] . Biophore #2 represents a flexible -CH 2 O- bridge between aryl moieties and was found to enhance the activity and selectivity of the inhibitors as shown in the original work [ 9 ] . Biophores #1 and #2 include aromatic moieties, whose main function is presumably to bind to the hydrophobic site of MAO.
