Sentence examples for bound compartment from inspiring English sources

From the mean values obtained, we calculated the BP, which represents the ratio of the distribution volumes of the specifically and the nonspecifically bound compartment.

K1, k2, k3, and k4 are rate constants (1/min) and describe the directional exchanges between the three compartments (cplasma represents the vascular compartment, c1 represents the free and non-specifically bound compartment, and c2 represents the trapped compartment).

The three-compartment model leads to the extraction of the kinetic constants: K1 and k2, which reflect the transport of the tracers from the plasma to the free and non-specifically bound compartment, and k3 and k4, which represent the phosphorylation and dephosphorylation rate of the tracers respectively (Fig. 1).

Upon invading the host erythrocyte, the human malaria parasite P. falciparum lives and replicates within a membrane bound compartment referred to as the parasitophorous vacuole.

The Salmonella containing vacuole, a membrane bound compartment in which Salmonella resides intracellularly, recruits up to 30% of cellular cholesterol during infection [28] and the Salmonella secreted effector SseJ is targeted at cholesterol esterification, which is important for bacterial survival [29].

The assembly and budding process of enveloped viruses utilizes numerous cellular factors to facilitate transport from one membrane bound compartment to the other.

It is noteworthy, however, that method B described the data very well, judging from Akaike values, which suggests that at least two-tissue compartments are kinetically distinguishable for [N-methyl-11C]mirtazapine, namely free and specifically-bound ligand, assuming that the free and nonspecifically bound compartments reach equilibrium rapidly.

During this interaction, bacteria (called rhizobia) invade the plant roots and are accommodated in membrane bound compartments within plant cells of a specialized organ on the root: the nodule.

After 6 h chase incubations, the cells were permeabilised with streptolysin O (SLO) as previously described to yield a cytosol fraction containing cytoplasmic components including lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), and a residual cellular fraction that has been shown to contain intact lysosomes, Golgi apparatus, and ER (Membrane bound compartments, MBC) [32].

The cells contain three distinct membrane bound compartments: the paryphoplasm, cytoplasm, and anammoxosome.
