Words similar to threonine
Example sentences for: threonine
How can you use “threonine” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:
The opossum alpha-2C adrenergic receptor has a very similar acidic serine motif (EESSTSE) in the third intracellular loop (Figure 1; [ 21 ] ), whereas the human alpha-2C receptor has a DESSAAAE sequence in the same region (Figure 2; [ 22 ] ). Thus, we postulated that the lack of down-regulation in the human alpha-2C was related to having only two rather than four serines in the motif, and furthermore that the ability of the opossum alpha-2C to undergo down-regulation was dependent on having all four serine/threonine residues in the EESSTSE motif.
This approach has been successful in producing conditional forms of the Tec family PTK Bmx [ 22], and also the PTKs v-Src [ 23], Hck [ 24] and Abl [ 25], the serine/threonine kinases Raf [ 26] and Akt [ 27], and the dual specificity protein kinase MEK1 [ 23].
We confirmed these observations by showing that insulin increased the phosphorylation of a specific rapamycin-sensitive residue (threonine 389), present in the linker region of p70 S6 kinase, a phosphorylation event that is known to activate this enzyme [ 22 ] . In contrast, PD98059, an inhibitor of p44/42 MAPK activation, did not block the inhibitory effects of insulin on SP-A gene expression.
Protein kinase C is a non-receptor serine/threonine kinase that is maximally active in the presence of diacylglycerol and calcium ions.
Here we plot only the graph for two arginine codons, CGA and CGG (Figure 1a), and for two amino acids, arginine and threonine (Figure 1b), to illustrate that some codons and amino acids, such as CGC and arginine, show a clear relationship with genome GC content; others, such as CGA and threonine, show no relationship whatsoever.
