How can you use “quaternary” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:
The ERF protein of phage P22 is involved in the circularization of the linear dsDNA phage genome upon entry into the host cell [ 21 22 23 ] . Experimental studies have shown that, mutations in ERF are complemented by Redβ and that in vitro ERF adopts quaternary structures analogous to those of Redβ and RecT [ 14 17 24 25 ] . However, in the comprehensive analysis of the RecT/Redβ superfamily no statistically significant similarity could be detected between these proteins and the ERF proteins.
Rad52 functions in conjunction with the RecA ortholog, the RAD51 recombinase in double-strand break repair and meiotic recombination [ 6 ] . RAD52 binds ssDNA during recombination and also shows a quaternary organization similar to those of RecT/Redβ and ERF [ 16 26 ] . However, RAD52-like proteins showed no detectable sequence similarity with either the ERF or the RecT/Redβ-like proteins.
We show that, in spite of the functional similarities, and the similar quaternary structures, there are three distinct superfamilies of SSAPs, namely the RecT/Redβ, RAD52 and ERF, that appear to be evolutionarily unrelated to each other.
Hypothesized migrations out of northern Asia purportedly occurred along three lines: 1) westward into Europe, with gradual migration into North America, western Asia, Asia Minor, the Mediterranean, and Africa; 2) eastward into Siberia into western North America, and into eastern Europe; and 3) further south into Asia primarily during the Quaternary.
S. pombe RNA triphosphatase Pct1 is a 303-amino acid polypeptide with a homodimeric quaternary structure [ 12 ] . The pct1 +gene contains a single intron within the open reading frame [ 12 ] . S. pombe RNA guanylyltransferase Pce1 is a 402-amino acid monomeric protein [ 20 ] ; there are no introns within the pce1 +gene.
