Sentence examples for knob cell from inspiring English sources

Olr59 positive OSNs were observed in zone 1 (dorsal zone) in the OE, as expected for this class I OR, and was present throughout the cell, including the OSN cilia, dendritic knob, cell body, and axon (Figure 3D).

To select the mature-stage parasites (late trophozoites and schizonts) which have knobs on the cell surface, the mature-stage parasite culture was allowed to bind to a platelet-coated glass Petri dish [46] for 1 hour at 37°C inside a glass candle jar and the unbound cells were washed away gently using RPMI 1640.

Other important functions at the early phase of the virus life cycle have been assigned to the knob in addition to cell attachment, e.g. a role in intracellular trafficking [6] [10].

Pretreatment of A549 cells with knob protein significantly reduced the GFP expression of naked Ad-treated cells in a dose-dependent manner, decreasing 56.1% and 81.1% with 2 and 10 mg/mL knob protein, respectively.

HRP I protein also known as knob-associated protein (KAHRP-I) is found in Knob+ strain which means phenotypically that it expresses knob-like protrusion on the cell surface and is suggested to help in the cytoadherence of infected erythrocytes to the venular endothelium [ 44] and partially contributes to the high parasitemia and hypoxia associated with P. falciparum.

Indeed, it has been argued that simple sequence repeats may equip the cell "with adjustable 'tuning knobs' for efficient adaptation" (King et al [18, p. 36]).

The fiber knob domain mediates the initial virus-cell interaction by binding to a cellular receptor.

Both CS2ΔPF10_0381 and CS2ΔPFD1170c parasite-infected red cells displayed dramatically altered knob morphology.
