Example sentences for: pseudokinase
How can you use “pseudokinase” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:
Attempts to disrupt ifkA were carried out using a plasmid that contained a blasticidin resistance cassette flanked by two fragments of the ifkA gene, each about 800 bp long and derived from the pseudokinase and kinase domains.
IfkB is unique among GCN2-like proteins in that it does not possess the amino terminal pseudokinase domain.
Within the amino terminal sequences, yeast and other GCN2 proteins have a degenerate kinase domain of unknown function [ 31 ] . There is a 63 amino acid long sequence in IfkA that has 38% identity to the V and VI subdomains of the IfkA/B kinase domain, indicating the presence of an amino terminal pseudokinase domain in the Dictyostelium protein (fig.
In contrast, IfkB begins at the kinase domain and is the only known GCN2-like protein that does not possess a pseudokinase domain.
This region has limited sequence identity to the kinase domain, and thus has been termed the pseudokinase domain [ 37 ] . Similarly, the extension in IfkA shows limited sequence identity to the kinase domain.
