Words similar to tm-helical
Example sentences for: tm-helical
How can you use “tm-helical” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:
However, it is unlikely that polytopic membrane domains in the 12-TM Pfam-A families have a structure like that of ABC transporters; as there is no obvious sequence similarity within the sequence containing the 12 TM-helices, it is unlikely to form two 6-TM-helical bundles.
In the analysis of amino-acid positions, glycine, proline and tyrosine were found to be the most conserved residues in TM-helical regions, whereas isoleucine, valine, methionine and threonine were identified as the least conserved residues, relative to average occurrence.
By studying the families in C. elegans, we found that it has an exceptional number of 7-TM-helical membrane domains, most of which are annotated as chemoreceptors.
It contains 12 TM-helices in a homodimer of two 6-TM-helical bundles, which form a central chamber to translocate substrates.
Therefore, glycine, proline and tyrosine are relatively conserved residues in TM-helical regions, and isoleucine, valine, methionine and threonine have relatively high mutability.
