Sentence examples for large cell surface from inspiring English sources

In the L. johnsonii NCC 533 genome for example, large cell surface proteins were identified thought to be involved glycoprotein adhesion and persistence in the intestinal tract [12], [14].

As compared to the wild type cells, which under this heat stress condition exhibited a large cell surface CS, neither the bck1Δ nor wsc1Δ cells imaged by AFM presented this singular structure (Additional file 7: Figure S6).

Alveolar epithelial type I (ATI) cells are elongated squamous cells with a large cell surface, which, owing to their close proximity to endothelial cells of the alveolar capillaries, facilitate gas exchange in the lung.

Nonetheless, the use of complex cells as targets has been shown to enable the identification of aptamers that bind large cell surface-specific markers, in their native conformation.

Conversely on featured surfaces the cocci had a larger cell:surface contact area, whereas rods that lay across features had a smaller cell:surface contact area.

The shape of the cell with respect to the shape of the substratum features influences the ease of removal of the cell from the surface: on smooth surfaces the cocci had a smaller cell:surface contact area, whereas the rods had a larger cell:surface contact area.

Thus lacunae formed in both the BMP-2 and BMP-4 transduced pellets and led to significantly larger cell surface areas compared with the non-chondrogenic controls.

The TGZ-treated cultures, in which 50 μM TGZ was present during the same period, contained two morphologically different cell types; one was cuboidal in shape and the other was spindle shaped, which was characterized by cell spreading and a larger cell surface area compared with the cuboidal-shaped cells, as indicated by the magnified inserts.

Larger differences, however, were found in the ALS gene family, which encodes large cell-surface glycoproteins that function in host pathogen interactions (Hoyer et al. 2001).

Most of these giant proteins have been identified in nonpathogenic environmental bacteria as large cell-surface glycoproteins (Reva and Tümmler 2008).

These include a lantibiotic synthesis gene cluster, the capsular locus, a large cell wall surface anchor protein, two transposons, a resistance island, a possible phage remnant and a gene cluster with unknown functions.
