Example sentences for: oncoproteins

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

  • In support of this notion, the p27 protein has been identified as a target of viral oncoproteins [ 5 6 ] . However, unlike traditional tumor suppressors, the p27 gene rarely shows homozygous inactivation in cancer cells [ 7 8 9 ] , a finding that points towards alternative mechanisms of p27 inactivation.

  • Molecular modeling has shown that this domain contains two zinc finger-like motifs connected through linking C 3 HC 4 regions [ 18 ] . Naturally occurring splice variants of the gene suggest at least two transcription initiation points above and below the coding region for the RING domain [ 19 ] . Truncation studies have shown that the RING domain may function in direct protein binding of ER-α, ATF1, and BARD1, a ubiquitin ligase [ 20 21 22 ] . While zinc RING domains are common motifs in several protein families such as oncoproteins and regulatory proteins, the actual function of the domain differs among these proteins.

  • For example, the number of epitopes recognized by G3-245 mAb may be reduced if tumor cells express viral oncoproteins that bind and inactivate Rb [ 22 ] .
