Example sentences for: theophylline

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

  • As expected based on growth assays on solid media, little growth was observed in the absence of theophylline.

  • However, theophylline was toxic to bacteria, and caused a decrease in the growth of bacteria containing the parental td intron at concentrations greater than 0.5 mM.

  • The ligand specificity of the anti-theophylline aptamer carried over to the theophylline-dependent aptazyme, and no activation was seen with caffeine, which differed by a single methyl group from theophylline.

  • These results were all consistent with the hypothesis that theophylline regulates intron splicing in vivo . To further probe whether this was in fact the case mRNA was isolated from E. coli treated with theophylline or not, and RT-PCR was used to confirm the presence of spliced introns (Figure 5).

  • These levels of ligand-dependent activation were similar to those observed with the original hammerhead aptazyme constructs, [ 21 ] and it may prove possible to use in vitro selection to further optimize activation [ 13 14 ] . However, when the time course data were fit with a single exponential equation, the rates of the initial reactions turned out to be very similar in both the presence and absence of theophylline (Table 2).
