Sentence examples for complement of host from inspiring English sources
The complement of host proteins changes during tachyzoite infection with the induction of numerous mitochondrial and several ER proteins (9 11).
First, a non-overlapping complement of host and symbiont (prokaryotic plus protist) glycohydrolase gene families known to participate in cellulose, hemicellulose, alpha carbohydrate, and chitin degradation were identified.
In addition to identifying a robust complement of host and symbiotic protist genes, numerous genes with strong prokaryotic homology were also identified.
As a first step toward addressing both topics, microarrays can now be developed that contain the entire complement of host and symbiont genes.
In this respect, the dual sequencing approach presented here revealed a large and diverse complement of host and symbiont genes with significant links to lignocellulose digestion.
It is anticipated that this approach will reveal vastly different complements of host and symbiont gene expression in response to different lignocellulose diets, as well as which complements of enzymes are most relevant to target for use in digestion/depolymerization of specific feedstocks.
Here, we exploited this using an integrated bioinformatics/proteomics method to identify both virulence factors and their complement of interacting host proteins.
While the complement of upregulated host genes seems to provide insights into caste-regulatory physiology (discussed below), the down-regulation of symbiont genes by JH seems more likely an indicator of protist susceptibility to host hormones or a purging of symbionts in response to rising hormone titers [ 8, 31].
Extracellular vaccinia virus is resistant to complement because of incorporation of host complement control proteins into its envelope [9].
Thus, complement inhibition as a therapeutic treatment could be achieved by interventions aimed at blocking the pathological activities of complement activation products, while avoiding disruption of the role of complement in host immunity.
Deficiency of CD59 can result in an overactivity of complement, uncontrolled host cell lysis and development of paroxysmal nocturnal haemoglobinuria (Walport, 2001).
