Example sentences for: nucleation

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

BDM application leads to the loss of localization of leading edge components involved in actin nucleation.
Some variability is expected, however, because of the complexity of the kinetic processes of nucleation, growth and flocculation that precede sedimentation.
Their work indicates that the availability of nucleation sites in the immobilized target molecule will be determined by secondary structure, which is not predictable in any obvious way from the primary DNA sequences.
Though BDM does not inhibit nm-myosinII, in permeabilized yeast ( S. cerviseae ) BDM has been shown to decrease incorporation of exogenous actin into the cytoskeleton [ 20 ] . This process of actin incorporation requires proteins involved in actin filament formation and proteins that may localize a nucleation complex [ 20 21 ] . To determine if BDM has a similar effect on actin incorporation in mammalian cells, and if so an effect on actin nucleation, spreading Swiss3T3 cells were treated briefly with a media control or 15 mM BDM and then permeabilized with the detergent saponin in the presence of fluorescently labeled actin.
Perhaps components required for nucleation are de-localized by BDM allowing new polymerization to be re-directed to filopodia, as filopodial extension is thought to be driven by elongation and not nucleation [ 27 ] . The extension of the growth cone itself could result from a similar diversion of actin monomer from nucleation of new filaments to extension of existing filaments.
