Example sentences for: strept

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

There are several possible ways of immobilizing viral vectors at predetermined locations on the solid surface by using the (strept)avidin-biotin interaction.
We previously showed that biotin moieties can be attached covalently to the outer surface of adenoviral vectors without appreciable effect on their infectivity under carefully controlled biotinylation conditions [ 10 11 ] . Such biotinylated viral particles could be attached, specifically and stably, to a solid surface on which (strept)avidin is covalently immobilized (avidin- or streptavidin-coated solid surface).
We have devised a method of immobilizing adenoviral vectors, tightly and stably, on solid surfaces using the (strept)avidin-biotin interaction, while maintaining their ability to infect cells.
The extremely tight interaction between the protein (strept)avidin and its ligand biotin ( K d ~ 10 -14M) [ 5 6 7 8 9 ] was chosen as a means of tethering viral particles to the solid surface.
These results suggest that, upon biotinylation of the viral surface under controlled conditions, adenoviral vectors can be immobilized on a solid surface by using the (strept)avidin-biotin interaction, and that such immobilized adenoviral vectors are capable of infecting cells, in situ , on the solid surface.
