How can you use “prc-barrels” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:
While the structure of the PRC-barrels with a central aperture (Figures 1, 2) makes this a tempting possibility, currently there is no evidence to support the possibility that these domains bind small-molecule ligands.
It appears likely that the PRC-H-like version of the PRC-barrels was first derived in the ancestral α-proteobacteria, followed by dissemination into other lineages.
In addition to these three major groups, there is one small group that has representatives only in the cyanobacteria and plants (Figures 2, 4) and appears to contain more distant relatives of the PRC-H-like PRC-barrels.
In contrast to these two groups of PRC-barrels, the PRC-H-like group and their more distant relatives have a phyletic distribution, mainly limited to bacteria or archaea with large genomes and complex metabolism.
It seems possible that PRC-barrels with a sporadic distribution and a regulatory function in energy metabolism or photosynthesis are likely to have been derived from more conserved and ancient versions that were probably involved in RNA metabolism.
