The phrase "activating group" is correct and usable in written English.
It is typically used in the context of chemistry to refer to a substituent that increases the reactivity of a molecule, particularly in electrophilic aromatic substitution reactions.
Example: "In organic synthesis, the presence of an activating group on the aromatic ring can significantly enhance the rate of reaction."
Alternatives: "reactive group" or "enhancing group".
We classified the TF-miRNA pairs into two groups according the signal type: activating group and repressing group.
This dehydrative allylation procedure is very mild and atom economical, producing only water as the by-product and avoiding any unnecessary waste/steps associated with installing a leaving or activating group on the substrate.
In order to rationalize the preference of the nitrile as activating group and the surprisingly narrow substrate spectrum, docking of (E)- 1b into OPR1 (PDB-code: 3HGR)[ 18] was performed.
The choice of activating group, leaving group, and protecting group(s) must be considered during synthetic design in order to facilitate conversion of the initial radiofluorinated intermediate into the final product.
While site-directed injections have revealed much about the basal ganglia regions in which activating group III mGlu receptors could offer symptomatic potential in PD, routes of administration that can target multiple sites simultaneously give a better indication of the likely translation of these findings into therapeutic strategies.
The magnitude of long-term depression (LTD) elicited by directly activating group I mGluRs with the agonist dihydroxyphenylglycine (DHPG) (1) was significantly greater in slices from Fmr1 KO rats compared with control littermates (fEPSP responses WT:78.64 ± 3.70%, KO 67.53 ± 4.11%, t32 = 2.0065, pWTvKO = 0.027; Fig. 3A).
The enhancement was more pronounced for chemicals with activating groups and larger molecular size relative to those with smaller molecular size and without any substituent.
Recent advances in the arena of polyene cyclizations are presented, with critical coverage on efforts to render such transformations diastereo- and enantioselective with a range of activating groups and functional group arrays.
At the current time, the most-adopted method is an automated synthesis on a solid support (e.g., polystyrene beads), using protecting groups (e.g., Fmoc and t-Boc) and activating groups (e.g., DCC and DIC).
Residual activating groups on the polymer spontaneous hydrolyze, minimizing subsequent nonspecific labeling (vide infra).
In particular, the first approach was further developed to facilitate concomitant installation of protecting or activating groups (thioglycosides).
