Sentence examples for membrane breakdown is from inspiring English sources

Loss of lipid asymmetry, as evidenced by surface exposure of PS occurring prior to membrane breakdown, is generally assumed to be a marker of PCD.

For some decades, the membrane breakdown was a popular mechanism to account for ion crossing even among those authors who thought that membranes had pores [ 139, 142].

Yet, when direct measures between an internal and an external electrode became possible in 1939, it appeared that the action potential was larger than the resting potential [ 171]: A mechanism different from the membrane breakdown was necessary to explain these observations.

Upon exposure to high concentrations of calcium and phosphate ions, a calcium phosphate precipitate forms inside MV and is eventually released into the surrounding extracellular matrix following membrane breakdown which is apparently executed by phospholipases [149] as well as by proteases already present in MV [150].

The persistence of the nuclear membrane in spite of progressed ER breakdown is reminiscent of the events in tobacco during stage 5.

The delivery of intracellular material to lysosomes for breakdown is principally mediated by double membrane vesicles called autophagosomes.

Their breakdown is simple.

Victor's breakdown is a gradual affair.

Bernstein's membrane theory explained action potentials by assuming that transient membrane breakdowns would be responsible for an increased permeability and the subsequent abolishment of the ion gradient ([ 81, 170], purple boxes in Figures  2 and 3).

For example, the expression of a senescence associated gene, which encodes an acyl-hydrolase that facilitates the process of membrane breakdown [ 20], was up-regulated in plants with reduced phyB levels and this is in agreement with the observation that leaf senescence is enhanced by low levels of active phytochromes in several species [ 21, 22].

The presence of vesicles and electron dense plaques at the site of adhesion prior to membrane breakdown have also been observed but the nature and content of these vesicles are unknown [20].
