Subunits in a sentence

Changes in quaternary structure can occur through conformational changes within individual subunits or through reorientation of the subunits relative to each other.

Finally, quaternary structure is concerned with the structure of a protein with multiple peptide subunits, like hemoglobin with its four subunits.

For example, type I and type II cyclic-AMP dependent protein kinases have identical catalytic subunits but different regulatory subunits that bind cyclic AMP. citation Protein kinases Overview of signal transduction pathways.

Given an asymmetric subunit on a triangular face of a regular icosahedron, with three subunits per face 60 such subunits can be placed in an equivalent manner.

In bacteria that express a 20S proteasome, the β subunits have high sequence identity to archaeal and eukaryotic β subunits, whereas the α sequence identity is much lower.

Once the rRNA subunits are processed, they are ready to be assembled into larger ribosomal subunits.

Therefore, in a protofilament, one end will have the α-subunits exposed while the other end will have the β-subunits exposed.

Tubulin polymerizes end to end, with the β-subunits of one tubulin dimer contacting the α-subunits of the next dimer.

Viral structures are built of repeated identical protein subunits and the icosahedron is the easiest shape to assemble using these subunits.

When cAMP binds to the regulatory subunits, their conformation is altered, causing the dissociation of the regulatory subunits, which activates protein kinase A and allows further biological effects.

The term “heads of Federal law enforcement agencies” means the heads of those units or subunits.

However, when left at room temperature, integrated rosette subunits in which two molecules are alternately arranged gradually formed in the mixture, and this spontaneously developed into a beautiful helical structure (Fig.1-B).

And yet, scientists do not know how mutations in individual subunits of the SWI/SNF complex affect its function.

But nature is full of designer polymers like DNA and proteins, which are made up of differing subunits strung together that can encode information or structural features.

A distinctive feature of collagen is the regular arrangement of amino acids in each of the three chains of these collagen subunits.

After the Moscow confrontation of October 1993, Yeltsin sought to bolster his regional support by dissolving the legislatures of all federal subunits except the republics (which were advised to "reform" their political systems).

An RNA ladder is often run alongside the samples on an electrophoresis gel to observe the size of fragments obtained but in total RNA samples the ribosomal subunits can act as size markers.

Assembly The assembly of the proteasome is a complex process due to the number of subunits that must associate to form an active complex.

Beta subunits have four cysteine -rich repeated sequences.

Binding also requires that alpha subunits contain a histidine amino acid residue, (i.
