(n.) one who accepts an order or a bill of exchange; a drawee after he has accepted.
Example Sentences:
(1) The results, together with the known geometry of the enzyme, indicate that active site probes in the dodecamer are widely separated and that energy transfer occurs from a single donor to two or three acceptors on adjacent subunits.
(2) Thus acidic amino acids strongly inhibit acceptor activity as do glycine and proline residues as amino-terminal and carboxy-terminal neighbours, respectively.
(3) Striking and consistent differences were found in the levels of acceptor activity in different tissues from both groups; these levels corresponded to their sensitivity to tumorigenesis by alkylating agents.
(4) Both enzymes showed different acceptor specificities.
(5) Protein is a strong competitive acceptor of active products of radiolysis of water and free radicals of DNA.
(6) 1017 acceptors of all fertile age groups accumulated 10,576 woman-months of use.
(7) The rates of oxidation of various substrates and the acceptor control ratios did not differ appreciably between the two types of mitochondria.
(8) In each of the four study sites, focus group discussions or in-depth interviews were held with potential acceptors, current NORPLANT users, discontinuers, husbands of women in these three groups, and service providers.
(9) In the presence of alpha-lactalbumin, glucose became a good acceptor for the enzyme and had a Km value of 2.9 mM.
(10) Donor and acceptor molecules were wybutine and proflavin, respectively, both located 3' to the anticodon of tRNAPhe.
(11) It is suggested that an enzyme-inhibitor complex of an acyl-enzyme type is formed that is slowly hydrolysed, with water as the final acceptor, leaving an intact enzyme and an inactive form of the inhibitor.
(12) This paper also examines the effect of pH and ionic strength on the activity and specificity of the enzyme with respect to substrates and natural, as well as artificial, electron acceptors.
(13) Interaction between these acceptor sites and crude or partially purified estradiol receptor shows a high association constant (over 10(9) M).
(14) The reduction of cytochrome c was found to be sensitive to both anaerobiosis and superoxide dismutase, suggesting the involvement of superoxide anions with this electron acceptor.
(15) Additional studies with the monkey liver enzymes revealed that acyl-CoA substrates for one transferase inhibit the other, that the apparent Km value is low (10(-6) to 10(-5) M range) for the preferred acyl-CoA substrate as compared to the amino acid acceptor (greater than 10(-2) M) and that both transferases have a molecular weight of approximately 24,000.
(16) The enantiomer of 1-(4-hydroxyphenyl)ethanol produced by 4EPMH was R(+) when horse heart cytochrome c or azurin was used as electron acceptor for the enzyme.
(17) C component C3 bound covalently to parasite acceptor molecules via an ester linkage.
(18) We have developed a sensitive radiochemical assay of glycine N-acyltransferase activity, using phenylacetyl-CoA as the acyl donor and glycine as the acceptor.
(19) This study demonstrates that extracts of 15B cells, in contrast to the parent cell line, do not transfer N-acetylglucosamine residues from UDP-GlcNAc to certain glycopeptide and glycoprotein acceptors containing terminal nonreducing alpha-linked mannose residues.
(20) The purified plasma membranes were found to contain galactosyltransferase which transferred galactose from UDP-galactose onto endogenous acceptors.
