Example sentences for: p-mbp

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

  • Like PP5, the dephosphorylation of 32P-MBP by Ppt1p was stimulated by arachidonic acid and other unsaturated fatty acids, but lipids lacking either a double bond or a carboxylate group were not effective (Table 1).

  • A similar change in susceptibility to proteolysis upon lipid binding was observed with PP5 [ 19 ] . As with PP5, only lipids that stimulated 32P-MBP dephosphorylation slowed degradation of the 20 kDa TPR fragment (Table 1).

  • Compared to full-length enzyme Ppt1p (1-504) exhibited a two-fold increase in control specific activity with both 32P-casein and 32P-MBP.

  • Others have proposed that fatty acyl coenzyme A esters are potential physiologic regulators of PP5, since these compounds stimulate pNPP hydrolysis by PP5 in vitro at physiologically relevant concentrations and are approximately 10-fold more potent than their free fatty acid counterparts [ 21 ] . Although we confirmed this observation using PP5 and pNPP (data not shown), in our hands similar levels of AA and arachidoyl coenzyme A were required for half-maximal stimulation of 32P-MBP dephosphorylation in the case of both Ppt1p and PP5.

  • In the case of mammalian PP5, results from lipid stimulation and binding, limited proteolysis and truncation studies taken together suggest the TPR domain and the C terminus inhibit PP5 activity in a coordinated manner and that lipid binding to the TPR domain activates the enzyme in vitro [ 18 19 20 ] . In the present study we used assay conditions for Ppt1p identical to those in which PP5 was shown to be activated by removal of the TPR or C-terminal regions [ 19 ] . Under these conditions Ppt1p is also stimulated by lipids toward 32P-MBP, and activating lipids slow TPR domain proteolysis.
