Example sentences for: thif

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

Ec-MoeB, Mt-MoeBR, Pa-MoeB, Pa-MoeBR, and Sc-MoeBR all contain two pairs of cysteine residues, each arranged in a CXXC motif and spaced 68-70 residues apart, like those in ThiF proteins (arrows in Figures 2cand 3).
The high degree of AA similarity that all 12 sequences have to the ThiF family domain probably indicates that these proteins, at least in part, perform a similar function, most likely activating a substrate by adenylation.
In addition to the ThiF family domain, all sequences except Mlo-MoeZdR also possessed a region similar to the C-terminal half of ThiF.
P. stutzeri has been characterized as having an exceptionally plastic genome with high genotypic diversity within the species [ 33 ] . LGT events are thought to contribute to this plasticity and, consistent with this, many P. stutzeri strains also exhibit a natural transformation ability [ 34 ] . The fact that incorporation of DNA into the genome through homologous recombination requires a region of homology usually limits LGT mediated by natural transformation to closely related species [ 34 35 ] . The ThiF domains of the high homology group do provide a region of homology suitable for homologous recombination.
This dual CXXC motif, found in MoeB, ThiF, and HesA proteins, forms a metal center with a zinc atom [ 7 9 ] . The presence of all four of these cysteines has been shown to be required for activity in MoeB).
