Sentence examples for backbone means from inspiring English sources

Targeting the backbone means the NSA casts a "vast net" and inevitably scoops up data unrelated to any target and will also include domestic communications, violating the rules governing what the NSA can spy on, said Ms Tretikov.

The incorporation of the NDM-1 gene into the plasmid, pEL60 backbone means that bacterial pathogens in plants might serve as reservoirs in its dissemination.

This reduction coupled with a larger angle of the ribs to the backbone, means that a relatively small mechanical advantage may be sufficient for rib movements [12].

The G107S mutant displayed overall preserved structural integrity, and indeed both the entire TCR structure and the CDR3β peptidyl backbone had a lower root backbone mean square deviation (RMSD) from the initial minimized structure than the wt TCR (Fig. 7a).

For this purpose, the breaking of the polymer backbone by means of ozonolysis was necessary.

The appearance of strong band at 406 nm (Soret band) reflects that the Hb is in its native form and the heme group embedded in a hydrophobic pocket formed by the protein's backbone by means of appropriate folding [23 32, 34 39].

In B-Gem, gemcitabine is attached to the polymeric backbone by means of the -GFLG- spacer, which is also used in PK1 and which is known to be cleaved by the lysosomal cysteine protease cathepsin B. Figure 6C shows that A-Gem does not release the drug in vitro: independent of the conditions used, less than 1% of the agent was liberated upon 8 h of incubation.
