Example sentences for: tetracysteines
How can you use “tetracysteines” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:
The relaxation and decatenation activities of T. maritima topoisomerase I appear to be significantly more efficient than those of the E. coli topoisomerase I [ 33 ] . Based on their primary sequences, a number of bacterial topoisomerase I enzymes do not appear to coordinate any Zn(II) with tetracysteines motifs while other type IA topoisomerase has up to 4 tetracysteine motifs [ 7 ] . The topoisomerase I from Mycobacterium smegmatis has been demonstrated biochemically not to bind Zn(II) [ 34 ] . In contrast, mutation disrupting the fourth Zn(II) motif of Helicobacter pylori topoisomerase I abolished enzyme function in vivo [ 35 ] . Therefore there may be significant differences in the mechanisms of type IA topoisomerases from different organisms with respect to requirement of Zn(II) binding for relaxation activity.
