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

Our studies demonstrate a correlation between protegrin sensitivity/resistance and protegrin binding in P. aeruginosa and B. cepacia , and support a hypothesis that the relative resistance of B. cepacia to protegrin is due principally to a reduced number of protegrin binding sites on the lipid A moiety of its LPS.
Incubation of 125I-GGPG with intact P. aeruginosa 9027 (PG-1 sensitive) and B. cepacia 25416 (PG-1 resistant) cells demonstrated a marked difference in protegrin binding between the two strains (Fig.
1shows many millions of protegrin molecules are bound to an average bacterial cell, even at concentrations around the minimal active concentration.
In this study we compared the sensitivity of P. aeruginosa and B. cepacia strains to protegrin PG-1 with the ability of the intact bacteria and key components of their outer membranes (LPS and lipid A) to bind this peptide.
This protegrin variant differed from PG-1 in two ways: Phe7 replaced Tyr7 in the protegrin domain, and an N-terminal glycine-rich hexapeptide extension (GGGYGG) with a single tyrosine residue was present.
