Example sentences for: subunit

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

  • Assembly of chimeric heterodimers formed by mixing subunits of HIV-1 RT and FIV-1 RT, has demonstrated that the p51 subunit of HIV-1 RT helps to preserve the functional integrity of the HIV-1 RT heterodimer [ 18 ] . Despite the fact that several functions have been proposed for the p51 subunit, the mechanism whereby p51 performs these functions has remained largely undefined.

  • Visual examination of the structure of this insert domain revealed a topology with elements of both a sandwich and a barrel, and two "waist"-like structures that are characteristic of the sandwich-barrel hybrid motif (SBHM) fold [ 75 76 ] (see also the SCOP database [ 65 ] ). The SBHM fold is present in biotin/lipoate carrier domains and their homologs found in a variety of enzymes and transporters [ 76 ] . A DALI search with this insert domain from the β subunit of Thermus DDRP showed similarity to the SBHMs from various biotin/lipoate-binding enzymes, such as acetyl-CoA carboxylase (1bdo) or dihydrolipoamide acetyltransferase (1iyu) with Z scores of ~6 and RMSD ~2.

  • Participation of both DEK and NF-Y in the DQA1 Y-box binding complex was confirmed by using high-titer anti-DEK antiserum (gift of W Szer [ 9 ] ) and monoclonal antibody to the NF-YA subunit of the Y-box binding factor (gift of JP-Y Ting) to further retard the mobility of the DQA1 Y-box binding complex ('supershifting') (Fig.

  • Rad26 is a regulatory subunit of the Rad26/Rad3 complex that is required for Rad3 kinase activity [ 18 ] . Following DNA damage, Rad26 undergoes Rad3-dependent phosphorylation [ 17 ] . Rad26 is a 70 kDa protein containing little informative sequence information beyond a predicted coiled-coil region and a basic stretch that resembles a nuclear localization signal [ 13 32 ] . Functionally conserved proteins with very weak sequence similarity have been found in human (ATRIP) [ 35 ] , S. cerevisiae LCD1 (aka DDC2 and PIE1) [ 36 37 38 ] and A. nidulans (UVSD) [ 32 ] .

  • This result is consistent with the mobility of the native purified skeletal muscle α 1S subunit [ 25 ] . The fs-α 1S migrated with a molecular weight of approximately 90 KDa which is entirely consistent with the theoretical molecular weight of the expressed fragment which was 85.
