Example sentences for: trma

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

  • thiamine diphosphate (ThDP); thiamine-responsive megaloblastic anemia (TRMA)

  • The results indicate that although mitochondria from TRMA lymphoblasts cannot take up thiamine with high affinity, they can efficiently import ThDP, the active form of thiamine.

  • This finding suggests that cellular and mitochondrial uptake of thiamine may be mediated by the same transporter since TRMA is defined by mutation within the thiamine transporter located on the plasma membrane [ 7 8 9 10 11 12 ] . Using antiserum specific for the human thiamine transporter that is mutated in TRMA individuals, western analysis consistently resulted in a faint but detectable band within the isolated mitochondrial suspension (fig.

  • Interestingly, ThDP-utilizing enzymes in mitochondria are much less affected (as revealed by loss of activity) upon progressive depletion of thiamine available to TRMA cells than are ThDP-utilizing enzymes of the cytosol [ 6 ] . For these reasons, we have examined the uptake of thiamine and especially ThDP by mitochondria from several human cell types, including cells from TRMA patients.

  • Surprisingly, mitochondria derived from TRMA lymphoblasts lacked the high affinity uptake of thiamine.
