Example sentences for: multi-subunit

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

  • A first one is the CCR4-NOT multi-subunit group of proteins, which comprises at least two complexes of 1.0 and 1.9 MDa.

  • Cohesion in eukaryotic cells is mediated by a multi-subunit protein complex called cohesin.

  • In immature B cells, activation through the BCR induces either a state of unresponsiveness, termed anergy, or death by apoptosis, depending on the physical nature and concentration of the antigen [ 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 ] . In some B cell lymphomas, activation through the BCR can induce cell cycle arrest and apoptosis in vitro and tumor dormancy in vivo [ 19 26 27 28 ] . The core of the multi-subunit BCR is membrane-bound immunoglobulin (mIg), which is non-covalently associated with two co-receptor molecules, CD79a (Igα) and CD79b (Igβ), products of the mb-1 and B29 genes [ 29 30 ] . The biochemical changes induced by engagement of the BCR are extensive and include an increase in tyrosine phosphorylation of several intracellular proteins, hydrolysis of membrane phospholipids, fluxes in the concentration of intracellular free Ca 2+, activation of several serine/threonine kinases including components of the MAP kinase pathway, and changes in the activities of a panel of transcription factors.

  • The B cell antigen receptor (BCR) is a multi-subunit complex that acts as a key sensor regulating the response of lymphocytes to their environment (reviewed in [ 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 ] ). In mature B cells, activation through the BCR stimulates cellular proliferation and differentiation.

  • In pituitary cells, C/EBPα is part of a multi-subunit complex [ 41 42 ] that activates the growth hormone [ 42 ] and prolactin [ 43 44 ] promoters.
