Example sentences for: serines

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

  • When recruited to stalled transcription complexes, P-TEFb phosphorylates serines at position 2 in the CTD [8], the Spt5 subunit of DSIF [9], and the RD subunit of NELF [10].

  • While phosphorylation of serines 15 and 20 of p53 are clearly dependent on the ATM and chk2 protein kinases [ 10, 11, 12, 13, 14], the kinases responsible for phosphorylation of the remaining serine residues in vivo is not clear.

  • The opossum alpha-2C adrenergic receptor has a very similar acidic serine motif (EESSTSE) in the third intracellular loop (Figure 1; [ 21 ] ), whereas the human alpha-2C receptor has a DESSAAAE sequence in the same region (Figure 2; [ 22 ] ). Thus, we postulated that the lack of down-regulation in the human alpha-2C was related to having only two rather than four serines in the motif, and furthermore that the ability of the opossum alpha-2C to undergo down-regulation was dependent on having all four serine/threonine residues in the EESSTSE motif.

  • ATM therefore controls the phosphorylation of serines 15 and 20 of p53.

  • Next, the GTF TFIIH unwinds the DNA, opens the transcription bubble, and phosphorylates serines at position 5 in the C-terminal domain (CTD) of the RPB1 subunit of RNAPII (reviewed in [2]).
