Example sentences for: phosphates

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

  • Because phosphorothioate analogs of 5 and 6 were better inhibitors than the corresponding phosphates, phosphorodithioate analog 6c was prepared together with five additional compounds as phosphates and phosphorothioates.

  • When the protein is fully phosphorylated, it remains largely in the monomeric state; whereas removal of these phosphates allows the protein to assemble into thick filaments.

  • Organic phosphate compounds are the central metabolites of all biological systems [ 1 2 ] . Some are the basic building blocks of nucleic acids, some like ATP and GTP, are additionally, cellular energy stores, others like cAMP or cGMP are messengers in signal transduction, and, yet others, such as FAD, NAD, thiamine phosphates and pyridoxal phosphate are cofactors for a range of enzymes [ 1 2 ] . Protein domains belonging to a relatively small set of structural folds are known to bind or catalyze reactions that utilize these organic phosphate compounds (see SCOP database: http://scop.mrc-lmb.cam.ac.uk/scop/) [ 3 4 ] . Several of these folds trace back to some of the earliest phases of the evolution of the protein world, and participate in a wide range of disparate biological functions in extant proteins [ 4 5 ] . Some folds, such as the P-loop fold, the Rossmann fold and the Hsp70-like fold, have been well studied, and comprise mainly of dedicated nucleotide binding or hydrolyzing proteins [ 6 7 8 9 ] . Others, such as the palm-domain, which is found in adenylyl cyclases and various nucleic acid polymerases, belong to more generalized protein folds that contain representatives with diverse biochemical activities [ 4 10 11 ] . Current availability of extensive genome sequence data, allows one to identify less numerous, nevertheless biological important organic phosphate-binding domains that may have previous eluded detection.

  • In the lipid A of B. cepacia , one of these phosphates is modified by a phosphodiester-linked 4-amino-4-deoxyarabinose residue [ 58 59 ] . It is noteworthy that a previous study reported that the phosphate content of B. cepacia LPS was only one-third of that of P. aeruginosa [ 60 ] . If most of the

  • It has been reported that the amino group serves as one of VO 2+equatorial ligands in CF 1 -ATPase [ 21 ] , pyruvate kinase [ 19 20 ] , AdoMet synthetase [ 17 18 ] , and carboxypeptidase [ 16 ] . Thus one amino group from lysine, one carboxyl group from aspartate or glutamate, and two oxygens from the phosphates of ADPNP serve as the equatorial ligands of sCD39 bound VO 2+in the presence of ADPNP.
