How can you use “zinc-binding” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:
An analysis of proteins containing zinc finger domains in bacteria, yeast and C. elegans revealed that bacteria do contain some proteins that bind zinc but lack large families of zinc-binding proteins found in eukaryotes [ 6].
This sequence is a zinc-binding dehydrogenase (Pfam: adh_zinc, PF00107).
To determine whether the RING finger plays a role in mediating nuclear import, we mutated two key zinc-binding cysteine residues at the RING finger domain of GFP-N346 (C158A/C161A, N346 RINGmut) to destroy the RING finger structure (Fig 7A).
These include SH3 domains (Src homology 3 domains, that bind to target proteins), MYTH4 (a domain of unknown function found in a few classes of myosins), a zinc-binding domain, a pleckstrin homology domain, FERM/talin (band 4.1/ezrin/radixin/moesin), GPA-rich domains and a protein kinase domain [ 8, 22, 26].
Between eukaryotes, the presence and size of the different zinc-binding families vary [ 6].
