Words similar to palmitoylation
Example sentences for: palmitoylation
How can you use “palmitoylation” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:
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.
The lack of palmitoylation of sα i2 is consistent with at least two, not necessarily mutually exclusive, possibilities.
On the other hand, when the first ten amino acids of α i2 are fused to GFP to create α i2 (1-10)-GFP, fluorescence is detected strongly at the PM (Figure 5C), indicating the N-terminus of α i2 , which contains the sites for myristoylation and palmitoylation [ 14 ] , can be sufficient for directing PM localization of a normally cytosolic protein.
Only 26% of the human ORs have one or more cysteines in their carboxy-terminal regions, suggesting that carboxy-terminal palmitoylation, if it occurs, is not general for ORs.
Most of the CPKs contain fatty-acylation sites, including those for myristoylation and palmitoylation, which seem to be necessary for targeting to membranes and for protein-protein interactions [ 67].
