How can you use “two-component” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:
This two-component system may be functionally closer to the PhoP-PhoQ system than to the PhoB-PhoR system.
Ethylene and cytokinin are both perceived by receptors sharing similarity to bacterial two-component regulators.
They are likely to function as sensors of diffusible gaseous ligands that activate at least three distinct, downstream signaling pathways: namely phosphotransfer through the two-component systems, methyl ester-dependent chemotactic response and cyclic nucleotide signaling through the diguanylate cyclases/phosphodiesterases.
Although the three capping reactions are universal in eukaryotes, there is a surprising diversity in the genetic organization of the capping enzymes as well as a complete divergence in the structure and catalytic mechanism of the RNA triphosphatase component in "lower" versus "higher" eukaryotic species [ 1 ] . Metazoans and plants have a two-component capping system consisting of a bifunctional triphosphatase-guanylyltransferase polypeptide and a separate methyltransferase polypeptide, whereas fungi contain a three-component system consisting of separate triphosphatase, guanylyltransferase, and methyltransferase gene products.
Tem1 is thought to be kept inactive throughout early mitosis by the two-component GTPase-activating protein complex Bub2/Bfa1 which co-localizes with Tem1 at the spindle pole body [ 10 11 ] . When the mitotic spindle penetrates the mother-daughter neck, the Tem1-bound spindle pole body is translocated into the daughter cell where a cortical pool of Lte1 is thought to activate Tem1 [ 12 13 ] . In addition to this spatial regulation, the GTPase activity of Bfa1 is thought to be inactivated through its phosphorylation by Cdc5 [ 14 ] , but it remains unknown how this process is coordinated with the presumed juxtaposition of Lte1 and Tem1 in the daughter cell.
