Sentence examples for transformation machinery from inspiring English sources

The thermophile Thermus thermophilus is known to be highly transformable and the protein components of its natural transformation machinery have been identified [ 1, 2]. T. thermophilus can take up DNA with high efficiency and has been shown to have a broad DNA specificity [ 3].

The transformation machinery non-specifically binds and imports extracellular DNA fragments into the cytoplasm in single-stranded form.

The conservation of the entire transformation machinery in the vast majority of the genomes suggests that most bacteria in the genus are naturally transformable under certain conditions.

While competence regulating circuits often are species specific, both Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria share fundamental similarities in the proteins required to constitute the transformation machinery.

TtPilF was one of a group of proteins originally shown, through mutation and loss of competence, to be part of the natural transformation machinery in Thermus [ 6].

B. subtilis expresses competence-related genes at the late stage of cell growth, and their products, transformation machinery molecules, are assembled in the cell membrane.

Recent cytological experiments provide evidence that components of the pneumococcal natural transformation (competence) machinery can be linked to cell division, at least spatially (Bergé et al., 2013), hinting that unknown mechanisms may indeed restrict genetic exchange in time or in space during the progression of the cell division cycle.

The downregulation of r-protein biogenesis in the transgenic plants discussed here supports the hypothesis that it might be part of a reprogramming of plant's energy transformation and utilization machinery under energy limitations.

Because DNA fragments containing them are preferentially taken up by competent cells, uptake sequences are thought to have accumulated by recombination with homologous fragments brought into cells by the DNA uptake machinery (natural transformation) (Danner et al. 1980; Bakkali 2007; Treangen et al. 2008).

Currently, there is an ongoing transformation of classical products and machinery towards cyber-physical systems.

Thus, these miRNAs are good candidates for the regulation of genes involved in the epigenetic machinery during melanocyte transformation.
