Example sentences for: precursor
How can you use “precursor” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:
Chenn and Walsh recently created transgenic mice in which β-catenin stabilized by an amino-terminal truncation was expressed in subventricular zone precursor cells in utero under control of the nestin promoter [ 22 ] . Brains from these transgenic embryos contained increased numbers of periventricular neuroepithelial cells because a greater number of the precursors re-entered the cell cycle after mitosis.
Further analysis revealed that a 521 base pair region of P. stutzeri ORF-F shares 80% homology with M. tuberculosis moe Z [ 17 ] . The products of the pdt locus probably function by activating, then sulfurating, a carboxylic acid precursor.
In fact, a phone call to ask how she's doing would be a good precursor to any invitation.
Two moeB sequences with evidence for function include a knockout of the open reading frame encoding GenBank accession number BAA35521, which was shown to cause the accumulation of precursor Z in E. coli [ 13 ] and accession number Z95150, which was found to be located within a cluster of other MPT-Mo synthesis genes of Mycobacterium tuberculosis [ 14 ] . MSAEs from eukaryotic organisms have also been characterized: MOCS3 (GenBank accession number NM_014484) from humans and cnx 5 from Arabidopsis thaliana [ 15 ] , respectively, have been sequenced, and cnxF from Aspergillus nidulans [ 16 ] has been both sequenced and physiologically characterized.
A few previously published reports on CC and its precursor lesions showed promoter methylation of specific genes [ 12 13 ] . However, these studies were limited by the small number of genes and tumors examined.
