Example sentences for: xenopus

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

  • Mammalian protein phosphatase 5 (PP5) and its homolog protein phosphatase T1 (Ppt1p) from the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae contain a catalytic domain structurally related to the catalytic subunits of PP1, PP2A and PP2B, and an N-terminal domain consisting of multiple tetratricopeptide repeats (TPRs) not found in other members of this family of phosphatases [ 1 2 3 ] . Homologs have also been identified in Xenopus laevis [ 4 ] , Neurospora crassa [ 5 ] , Drosophila melanogaster [ 6 ] , Trypanosoma brucei [ 7 ] , Plasmodium falciparum [ 8 9 ] , and cauliflower [ 10 ] , and homologs for Caenorhabditis elegans, Schizosaccharomyces pombe and Arabidopsis thaliana are predicted (accession number CAB60937, CAA17690 and AAD21727, respectively).

  • However, the amplitude of the rhythm is approximately 2 fold compared to the greater than 10 fold amplitude seen in Xenopus retina.

  • Although the nocturnin gene appears to encode a potentially important component of the circadian regulatory system in the Xenopus eye, its position within or downstream of the circadian clock mechanism has not been determined.

  • These data indicate that wild-type VR1 channels expressed in Xenopus oocytes are present in both unglycosylated and glycosylated forms and that the N-linked glycosylation occurs at position 604.

  • Before the characterization of TEA, mercurial compounds were among the only known blockers of AQP1, affecting both the constitutive water flux and the regulated ion conductance [ 6 10 ] . For AQP1 channels expressed in Xenopus oocytes, the block of osmotic water flux is 5% in 0.01 mM TEA, 21% in 1 mM TEA, and 36% in 10 mM TEA, as referenced to the osmotic water flux in control AQP1-expressing oocytes [ 5 ] . Data presented here show that the level of block by TEA is comparable or greater for AQP1 channels expressed in mammalian cells.
