Sentence examples for binding proteins rather than from inspiring English sources

These studies suggest the effects of estrogens might be mediated through other estrogen binding proteins, rather than ERβ, even though all three ERβ agonists increased calcium oscillations.

In addition, it would be good to see a comment on the functional significance of secreting sugar binding proteins rather than having them membrane associated.

Therefore, it is possible that the insertion of Tos17 is regulated by chromatin structure or through interaction with chromatin binding proteins, rather than being controlled directly by the structures or expression levels of the targeted sequences.

Actually, given that L-PGDS knockout mice showed unchanged levels of PGD2 in BAT, this suggests that L-PGDS may act as a lipocalin (lipid binding protein) rather than as a prostaglandin synthase.

Conversely, for negative T-DMRs, generalized methylation of the T-DMR may be more likely to inhibit transcription by the binding of methyl-binding proteins rather than a specific TF that only binds to methylated DNA.

We speculate that UEV-1 regulates the K63-linked ubiquitination of a small number of substrates, one or more of which is involved in GLR-1 trafficking, although we acknowledge that we cannot rule out the alternative possibility that UEV-1 and UBC-13 regulate GLR-1 trafficking by binding ubiquitinated proteins rather than catalytically modifying their K63 linkages.

Based on these results and on what is known about the binding of carbamoylating agents to cellular macromolecules, methyl isocyanate may exert its genetic toxicity by binding to nuclear proteins rather than by binding to DNA.

All this evidence suggests that LaeA/LAE1 may exert its function by binding to other proteins rather than by methylating histones or other DNA-binding proteins.

It is known that most proteins carry out their functions through physically binding to other proteins, rather than in an individual way.

Since we had been studying the association of Vsp-transformants with HBMEC monolayers by measuring the signal from S35-radiolabeled aminoacids, it was possible that the observed association corresponded to the binding and/intracellular movement of proteins rather than whole spirochetes.

"You can imagine a small molecule, a drug, that works under this new paradigm, will truly be one that can seek and destroy rogue, disease-causing proteins, rather than simply binding and falling off, binding and falling off," said Crews.
