Example sentences for: palmitoylation

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

Like other proteins modified by palmitoylation, the Src family kinase Fyn is found localized in RAFTs, a membrane microdomain fraction enriched in signaling molecules that can be isolated by sucrose gradient fractionation.
Myristoylation occurs co-translationally at the extreme N-terminal glycine, while palmitoylation occurs post-translationally at a cysteine immediately after the myristoylated glycine [ 15 ] . The subcellular site where palmitoylation occurs has not been well defined, although in one model palmitoylation occurs at the PM [ 16 ] . Cells expressing α i2 or sα i2 were metabolically labeled with 3H-palmitate or 3H-myristate.
sα i2 may fail to undergo palmitoylation because it is not stable long enough for post-translational palmitoylation to occur or because it fails to reach a PM site of palmitoylation.
No palmitoylation of sα i2 was detected (Figure 6A, lane 3), although α i2 was strongly palmitoylated (Figure 6A, lane 2).
The lack of palmitoylation of sα i2 is consistent with at least two, not necessarily mutually exclusive, possibilities.
