Example sentences for: subcomplex

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

  • Both regions contained multiple open reading frames; however, we focused immediately on a single gene for each mutant, SEC13 for npa2-1 and SEC23 for npa1-1 . SEC13 was first identified in a screen for secretory mutants and encodes a protein of the COPII coat, which is required for vesicle budding from the ER [ 37 38 39 ] . More recently, it has been shown that a fraction of the total cellular Sec13p co-fractionates with NPCs in a distinct subcomplex with Nup84p, Nup85p, Nup120p, Nup145Cp and Seh1p [ 40 41 ] . SEC23 was also identified in a screen for secretory mutants, and it, too, is a component of the COPII coat [ 37 38 39 ] . Co-purification of Sec23p with intact NPCs has not been reported [ 5 ] ; however, Sec23p was recently isolated in Nup42p and Nup116p affinity chromatography strategies [ 42 ] . Expression constructs containing only SEC13 or SEC23 were transformed into the mutant strains and assayed for their ability to rescue growth at the non-permissive temperature.

  • Sarcospan is most tightly associated with the transmembrane sarcoglycan subcomplex, mutation of which causes autosomal recessive limb girdle muscular dystrophy (LGMD2C-2F) [ 7, 8, 9, 10, 11].

  • A third subcomplex involves the dystrobrevins [ 7, 8] and syntrophins [ 9] which form a complex at the C-terminal region of dystrophin [ 10, 11, 12] and have an as yet unidentified function.

  • COP10, which has been shown to interact with AtCOP1 in yeast two-hybrid experiment, encodes a ubiquitin conjugating enzyme (E2) variant [ 44 ] . The COP9 signalosome, an eight-subunit complex homologous to the lid subcomplex of the 26 S proteasome [ 45 ] , directly associates with SCF E3 complex and promotes deneddylation of the cullin subunit of SCF in both plant and animal cells [ 46 47 48 49 ] . The exact relationship between COP1 and the COP9 signalosome remains obscure; it is known, however, that in Arabidopsis the COP9 signalosome is required for COP1 to accumulate in the nucleus in the dark [ 29 ] . Although COP1 most likely plays a role in regulating protein degradation, attempts in reconstituting ubiquitination of HY5 by AtCOP1 have been unsuccessful.

  • A second subcomplex, known as the dystroglycan complex [ 6], interacts directly with dystrophin in the cytoplasm and laminin in the extracellular matrix, thus providing a structural link between the inside and the outside of the cell.
