Example sentences for: polygalactosaminidase

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

Furthermore, iterative database searches using the PSI-BLAST program [ 9] showed statistically significant sequence similarity between these proteins and an experimentally characterized endo α-1,4-polygalactosaminidase from Pseudomonas species [ 21].
Thus, although the identification of MJ1477 as a secreted polygalactosaminidase or a related polysaccharide hydrolase with a different specificity awaits experimental verification, it shows all the signs of a correct computational prediction: statistically significant similarity between the analyzed protein and an experimentally characterized enzyme; conservation of distinct motifs implicated in catalysis; potential presence of a structural fold compatible with the experimentally demonstrated enzymatic activity; and confident prediction of the extracellular localization that is, again, compatible with a polysaccharide hydrolase activity involved in environmental carbohydrate utilization or capsular metabolism.
For example, in a search initiated with the sequence of MJ1477 and a profile inclusion cut-off of 0.01, the polygalactosaminidase sequence was retrieved from the database in the second iteration, followed by other bacterial proteins predicted to possess the same activity.
