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

  • Statins block HMGCoA reductase generation of mevalonate from 3-hydroxy-methyl-glutarate (see Figure 7).

  • HBAB, a member of the human aldo keto reductase gene family, has been shown to bind bile acids with high affinity (<1 μM) and is postulated to play a similar role as 3α-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase in human hepatocytes [ 33 ] . Expression of HBAB in McNtcp.

  • This ability depends on the regulated synthesis of a membrane bound DMSO (dimethylsulfoxide) and/or TMAO (trimethylamine N-oxide) reductase enzyme.

  • The enhanced ability of Fnr to activate dmsABC gene expression is possibly, by analogy to Crp, due to increased affinity of Fnr at the consensus versus the native non-consensus Fnr recognition sequence at dmsA . Likewise, the poor match of the Fnr site at the promoter for the fumarate reductase gene, frdA to the consensus Fnr sequence may account for the relatively weak anaerobic induction for this respiratory operon [ 14 ] .

  • There is no enzymatic mechanism for decreasing levels of •OH, produced from H 2 O 2 . Thus, levels of •OH will be directly proportional to levels of H 2 O 2 , and accordingly, catalase and alkyl hydroperoxide reductase activities are critical to oxidative stress survival.
