Sentence examples for general starvation from inspiring English sources

Surely repeated thigh crunches would bulk up your thighs, and general starvation will normally affect your chest, face and arms before it starts sucking out of your legs?

Besides general starvation mechanisms, the bacteria induce cellular acidification to slow down growth, switch to pentose phosphate pathway to overcome oxidative stress and nutrition limitation, and shed motility but develop biofilm to persist in the nematode intestine until being released into the insect hemolymph.

However, the stringent N-limitation conditions used in these experiments could also have induced expression of genes responding to reduced growth rate or of those involved in general starvation responses.

These observations suggest that a core set of SigT regulated genes belongs to a general starvation-stress response.

In Escherichia coli and Bacillus subtilis, the RpoS (σS) and SigB (σB) sigma factors are the master regulators of the general starvation-stress response [6], [7].

Notably, the SigT ECF sigma factor mediates the carbon starvation-induced degradation of CtrA, while activating a core set of general starvation-stress genes that respond to carbon starvation, osmotic stress, and exposure to heavy metals.

Thus, both the budding assay and DNA content measurements indicated that yeast defective in general starvation-induced autophagy or vacuolar protease activity (but not in selective autophagy or vacuolar permease-dependent nutrient recycling of large, neutral amino acids via the Atg22, Avt3 and Avt4 permeases) fail to properly arrest in G1/G0 following nitrogen starvation.

"In general, a starvation of credit and development finance and lack of investment activity for provincial assets has undoubtedly hindered companies such as St Modwen.

As with more general nutrient starvation, the depletion of intracellular arginine by ADI has been observed to induce metabolic stress and subsequent cellular autophagy (Kim et al, 2009b; Savaraj et al, 2010).

This could be interpreted as a response to a general nutrient starvation, as these transporter genes are known to be induced by deficiency in the nutrient that they transport, and could logically explain part of the decrease of fresh weight observed for plants growing at high density.

In general, N-starvation increases the expression of high-affinity transport systems for nitrate and ammonium [ 7].
