Example sentences for: monomers
How can you use “monomers” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:
The p51 subunit is generated via endoproteolytic cleavage of the p66 subunit between Phe 440 and Tyr 441 [ 5 6 ] . The larger subunit (p66) contains both polymerase and RNase H activities, while the smaller subunit (p51) lacks these functions, in context of the heterodimer [ 7 8 ] . However, both the p66 and p51 monomers are functionally inactive when dissociated from each other [ 9 ] . Several years have passed since it was first suggested that agents that could specifically disrupt the dimerization of HIV-1 RT might prove a worthwhile antiretroviral strategy [ 10 ] , though such agents have yet to be developed.
A "non-neutralizing" face has been identified where binding Abs generally do not neutralize HIV when gp120 is oligomerized [ 45, 47]; these data were interpreted as indicating that the non-neutralizing face is occluded in the trimer and that binding Abs are raised against shed gp120 monomers.
Since the RNA ligand makes contacts with both subunits, each binding site is made up of amino acids contributed by both monomers.
Indeed, FRAP studies support a model where dynamic myosin-II filaments progressively slide along the cortex while exchanging with the cytoplasmic pool of myosin-II monomers [ 20 ] . However, between the cylindrical and dumbbell stages of cell shape, there is a net flux of myosin-II from the cytoplasm to the cortex.
It remains to be determined whether self peptide immunization protocols that induce anaphylactic reactivity do so simply because of the manner in which they present large amounts of self peptides to the immune system, or because of other factors, such as the presence in the peptide preparations of aggregates or other components beside self peptide monomers.
