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:
The similar timing with which these events occur suggests that completion of the metabolic transition from lipid breakdown to photosynthesis as the primary source of sugars results in loss of sensitivity to the negative effects of sugars on lipid breakdown and early seedling development.
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 ] .
However, exogenous sugars can completely compensate for mutations that disrupt the glyoxylate cycle [ 58 ] . This finding suggests that the negative effects of high concentrations of exogenous sugars on early seedling development and seed storage lipid breakdown are not the result of sugar-mediated inhibition of the glyoxylate cycle.
Blood sugars are 160–190 mg/dl in the mornings and 200–240 mg/dl in the evenings, and the patient reports no hypoglycemic events.
Although numerous studies have shown that high concentrations of exogenous sugars repress the ability of germinating cereal seeds to mobilize the starch they use as energy reserves [ 13 23 ] , little work of a similar nature had previously been conducted on oilseed plants, such as Arabidopsis.
