Example sentences for: phosphoprotein

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

  • On the basis of sequence homo logy and similarity of three-dimensional structures, phosphoprotein phosphatases (PPases) have been classified into three families designated PPP, PPM, and PTP [reviewed in [ 1 2 3 ] . The PPP and PPM families are comprised of phosphoserine- and phosphothreonine-specific enzymes whereas the PTP family consists of phosphotyrosine-specific and dual-specificity enzymes [ 4 ] . The major members of the PPP family are PP1, PP2A, and PP2B (calcineurin) class of phosphatases.

  • The RNA genome of RSV is about 15 kb long and contains 11 documented protein-coding genes [ 13 ] . Three viral proteins are minimally required to reconstitute the functional transcription complex of NNR viruses [ 3 ] : the nucleocapsid protein (N) that wraps the negative-strand genome RNA and its full-length complement, the positive-strand antigenome RNA, thus converting them into highly nuclease-resistant, chromatin-like templates; the large protein (L), which is the major subunit of the RdRP; and the phosphoprotein (P), which is the smaller subunit of RdRP and an essential transcription factor of L [ 19 20 21 22 ] . In RSV, optimal transcription, although not replication, additionally requires the transcription antitermination protein M2-1 [ 13 ] . In addition, cellular actin, and to a lesser extent, profilin, are also required for viral transcription [ 17 18 ] .

  • Glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH) or acidic ribosomal phosphoprotein (ARP) were used as internal controls.

  • RSV is a member of the Pneumovirus genus in the Paramyxoviridae family, and contains a nonsegmented negative-stranded RNA genome of about 15 kb [ 5 ] . The minimal viral RNA-dependent RNA polymerase (RdRP) consists of two virally encoded proteins, the large protein L and the phosphoprotein P [ 6 7 8 ] , and a third viral protein, M2-1 (22K), contributes RNA antitermination function and optimal processivity [ 9 ] . In addition to these viral proteins, the RdRP also requires cellular actin.

  • Preparation of phosphoprotein substrates
