How can you use “transmembrane” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:
In the MDM of multi-spanning transmembrane α helices, isoleucine, methionine and valine are found to have relatively high mutability as hydrophobic residues, and serine and threonine also rank high in mutability as polar residues.
The first step of the pipeline uses a set of filter programs to determine the low-complexity regions as well as transmembrane regions, signal-peptide sequences, and coiled coils in a particular proteome.
Taken together, these amino acids account for 75% of the amino acids in transmembrane regions [ 10, 11, 12].
The DLG5 gene encodes for a protein that is a member of the MAGUK (Membrane Associated Guan late Kinase homologs) family of proteins located in the plasma membrane [ 2 ] . MAGUK is a new family of proteins that act as a molecular scaffold for intracellular signaling pathways [ 11 ] . The MAGUK family of proteins is characterized by domains that interact with other proteins to create an assembly of large multi-protein complexes [ 10 ] . The PDZ (PSD-95, DLG and ZO-1) domains are the best characterized for their binding to the C-terminal region of channels and transmembrane proteins [ 11 ] . Usually each protein has 1-3 copies of such domains [ 8 12 13 ] . The SH3 domain (Src homology 3) are present in proteins that couple transmembrane receptors to signaling molecules [ 14 ] . The presence of this domain in MAGUKs increases their possibilities of interacting with signaling pathways.
For some extremely large families [immunoglobulin domain (PF00047), protein kinase domain (PF00069), collagen triple helix repeat (PF01391), and rhodopsin-type 7 transmembrane receptor (PF00001)], all mammalian sequences except those from human and rat were excluded.
