Example sentences for: scaffolding

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

  • His masterpiece, Fallingwater, has been girded by steel scaffolding to prevent it from crumbling.

  • Selected AKAPs have been identified that can interact with both PKA and PKC [ 12 13 ] . For example, it was shown that AKAP 79 maintains PKA, PKC, and protein phosphatase 2B at the postsynaptic density of mammalian synapses [ 14 12 ] . Likewise, gravin, a second PKA/PKC anchoring protein, targets these kinases to the membrane cytoskeleton [ 13 ] . AKAP79, gravin, and its mouse homolog clone 72 thus belong to the recently identified class of scaffolding proteins that coordinate multiple kinase activity by bringing them to one site.

  • The group I mGluRs typically are located postsynaptically (as well as in other compartments of the cell) [ 16 17 18 ] where they regulate activity of ionotropic receptors and are necessary in some forms of synaptic plasticity [ 19 ] . The association of mGluRs with scaffolding proteins such as Homer (group I; [ 20 ] ) and PICK-1 (group III; [ 21 ] ) is important in regulating mGluR localization and function [ 21 22 23 24 ] . In addition to those proteins involved in scaffolding, other proteins have been shown to associate with mGluRs.

  • The network perspective suggests not a single scaffolding protein, but many scaffolding proteins - in fact, a "scaffolding network."

  • Thanks to the proprietress of our hotel, who climbed into the passenger seat and issued directions, I maneuvered our Fiat Punto through a 7-foot-wide stone maze, up and down a series of alleys at harrowing right angles, past scaffolding and cafe tables, to the parking lot.
