Example Sentences:
(1) Detergent-solubilized HLA antigens were isolated from a human lymphoblastoid cell using an anti-beta2-microglobulin immunoaffinity column.
(2) We propose that during the detergent solubilization the acidic phospholipids protect the transport systems against denaturation by preventing delipidation.
(3) Isoprenylated proteins were enriched in the detergent phase upon partition with the non-ionic detergent Triton X-114.
(4) Thymus and spleen cells from such hypogammaglobulinaemic chickens were extracted with non-ionic detergents, acid urea, or combinations of urea and detergent, and the extracts were analysed for Ig by the inhibition assay.
(5) By applying this method to rat cardiac whole muscle, high-molecular weight proteins, such as myosin heavy chains, are focused on the first-dimensional gels and, in addition, minor components are resolved on the second-dimensional gels, without loss during equilibration with detergent.
(6) Electron microscopy has been used to monitor the effect of detergent treatment on the morphology of the organism and to examine the detailed structure of the flagella.
(7) The detergent lauryl maltoside abolishes respiratory control and proton ejection by cytochrome c oxidase-containing proteoliposomes over a narrow concentration range.
(8) Depending on the differential sensitivity of nuclear T-ag to extraction by salt and detergent, nuclear T-ag could be separated into nucleoplasmic T-ag, salt-sensitive T-ag and matrix-bound T-ag subclasses.
(9) Ruminal digestion (% of intake) of neutral detergent fiber (NDF) and hemicellulose decreased linearly (P less than .05), whereas acid detergent fiber (ADF) digestion responded in a cubic (P less than .05) fashion to increasing concentrate level; NaHCO3 improved ruminal digestion of NDF (P less than .10) and ADF (P less than .05), but not hemicellulose.
(10) In senescent rats, however, the proportions of salt-soluble and detergent-soluble AChE may differ from those in young rats.
(11) The predominant u-PA binding protein isolated from whole cell detergent extracts migrated with a molecular mass of approximately 36 Kd using affinity chromatography.
(12) The K5 polysaccharide was N-deacetylated (by hydrazinolysis) and N-sulphated, and was then incubated with detergent-solubilized enzymes from a heparin-producing mouse mastocytoma, in the presence of adenosine 3'-phosphate 5'-phospho[35S] sulphate ([35S]PAPS).
(13) Whereas elongation of cDNA100 increased with time of incubation at the optimal detergent concentration, this process was retarded at higher detergent concentrations.
(14) For this, different detergents such as Triton X-100, CHAPS and n-octyl beta-D glucopyranoside were tested at various concentrations, durations and temperatures of incubation.
(15) The purification entails cell lysis and solubilization of gpL115 with the detergent Nonidet P-40, sequential affinity chromatography on lentil lectin-Sepharose, wheat germ lectin-Sepharose, and, after treatment with sialidase, on peanut lectin-Sepharose.
(16) Ultrastructural studies of detergent-insoluble cytoskeletons from infected cells and immunofluorescence microscopy of phalloidin-labeled cells showed alterations in the structure of the cytoskeleton during the internalization process including the accumulation of polymerized actin around entering bacteria.
(17) When detergent-dispersed LA was contaminated with linoleic acid hydroperoxide (LOOH), lipid peroxidation was catalyzed by Fe2+ via reductive cleavage of LOOH (LOOH-Fe2+-induced lipid peroxidation), and Fe2+ was oxidized simultaneously in SDS micelles, even when H2O2 was not present.
(18) The two forms show no differences other than those consistent with binding of detergent micelles to the hydrophobic moiety present on membrane form surface glycoprotein.
(19) In addition to rapid motions, slow motions were detected by 1H spin-lattice relaxation time in the rotating frame (TH1 rho) and cross-polarization time (TCH), together with data from static spectra, indicating that the aliphatic portion of the detergent interacts more strongly with hydrophobic protein surfaces than do the polar heads.
(20) The channel protein most likely is composed of several copies of a single type of polypeptide, which can be removed from photoreceptor membranes by detergents and functionally reincorporated into the membrane of liposomes or planar bilayers.
