How can you use “seven-transmembrane” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:
In this experiment, mRNAs from whole brains of mice of different genetic backgrounds which had been treated with an antagonist directed against the ligand-binding domain of a seven-transmembrane neuropeptide receptor [ 26] (the corticotropin-releasing hormone receptor 1 (CRH-R1) [ 27]) were compared to mRNAs from brains of mice lacking a functional CRH-R1 (CRH-R1 knockout mice [ 28]) using cDNA-microarrays (Table 1).
DFz2, like other members of the Fz protein family, contains a cysteine-rich domain (CRD) near the aminoterminus, followed by a seven-transmembrane (7-TM) domain and a cytoplasmic carboxyterminal tail.
Certain sequences underwent multiple recent duplications, resulting in large species specific sequence families, such as the C. elegans seven-transmembrane proteins acting as odorant and chemosensory receptors [ 19 20 ] . For query sequences belonging to such sequence families, orthologs (if present) are less effective for predicting specific information.
Wnt proteins have been shown to bind to Frizzleds (Fzs), which are seven-transmembrane receptors [ 5 6 ] . The binding of Wnts occurs within an aminoterminal cysteine-rich-domain (CRD) of Fzs.
The basic criteria for recognizing a particular OR gene as encoding a full-length, functional receptor candidate were the presence of an uninterrupted ORF starting with an ATG codon and a complete seven-transmembrane unit.
