Example sentences for: prohb-egf
How can you use “prohb-egf” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:
The interaction of fibulin-1C may map to the heparin-binding region of the extracellular domain of proHB-EGF or it may map to the EGF-like module of proHB-EGF or it may map to both of these regions within proHB-EGF.
The results of screening the monkey cv-1 cDNA library with the bait plasmid pGBT9/DTREx were somewhat surprising in that no portions of the CD9 protein were represented among the proteins found to interact with the extracellular domain of proHB-EGF.
The membrane-bound precursor and soluble forms of heparin-binding epidermal growth factor-like growth factor (HB-EGF) contribute to a variety of cellular developmental processes [ 1 ] . The observations of HB-EGF in cell and tissue types have suggested roles for HB-EGF in numerous cellular and tissue events such as: cell movement, extracellular matrix formation, tumor formation and cell adherence [ 1 ] . As described above, the membrane-bound precursor of HB-EGF (proHB-EGF) is also the cell-surface receptor for diphtheria toxin (DT) in DT-sensitive cells [ 2 ] .
To test this possiblity we used the extracellular domain of proHB-EGF in a yeast two-hybrid system to screen a monkey kidney cDNA library.
To test whether the fibulin-1C interaction with proHB-EGF maps to the heparin-binding region, a construct, pGBT9/prodelHB-EGF, containing amino acid residues Asp 106-His 159(the entire EGF like region of proHB-EGF and 18 out of 32 residues of the heparin-binding region) [ 2 ] was used in the yeast two-hybrid system (see materials and methods).
