Words similar to sugars
Example sentences for: sugars
How can you use “sugars” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:
Exposure to exogenous sugars, such as glucose and sucrose, has long been known to retard rates of starch mobilization in germinating cereal seeds [ 13 23 ] . Therefore, it was of interest to determine whether exogenous sugars also affect rates of lipid mobilization in germinating seeds of plants, such as Arabidopsis thaliana , that store their energy reserves in the form of lipids.
Additional sugar-response mutants have been identified by taking advantage of the fact that high concentrations of exogenous sugars (glucose or sucrose) inhibit early seedling development of wild-type Arabidopsis.
The three main polymers of biology—the nucleic acids, the proteins, and the polysaccarides—are built from 20 amino acids, five nucleotide bases, and a few sugars, respectively.
Eating nutrients in this ratio is supposed to keep your blood-sugar levels in check--if you load up on sugars and carbs with no protein and fat, your blood-sugar levels spike and then drop, leaving you feeling tired.
Several groups of Arabidopsis mutants that are resistant to the inhibitory effects of high sugar concentrations have been isolated [ 46 47 48 49 50 ] . Characterization of these mutants reveals that the sis5 [ 46 ] , sun6 [ 50 ] , gin6 [ 49 ] and isi3 [ 45 ] mutants are allelic to the abscisic acid insensitive mutant abi4 [ 51 ] and the sis4 [ 46 ] , isi4 [ 45 ] and gin1 [ 45 ] mutants are allelic to the abscisic acid biosynthesis mutant aba2 [ 52 ] . In addition, the ethylene constitutive response mutant ctr1-1 [ 53 ] , as well as the ethylene-overproduction mutant eto1 [ 54 ] , display sugar-resistant phenotypes [ 48 ] . Conversely, the sugar-response mutant sis1 exhibits an ethylene constitutive response phenotype and is allelic to ctr1-1 [ 47 ] . The prl1 mutant, which exhibits increased sensitivity to exogenous sugars [ 55 56 ] , carries a mutation in a gene that encodes a WD protein that interacts with SNF1 protein kinases [ 57 ] .
