(12) However, the failure of chromo somes to become properly aligned onto the metaphase plate indicated an impairment in normal prometaphase movement.
(13) As a first step, a high resolution image processing system for study purposes, NIRS-1000:CHROMO STUDY, has been developed.
(14) However, mutations affecting only the chromo domain including in vitro generated deletions, as well as point mutations, abolish chromosomal binding.
(15) Using this motif, termed chromo box, we have cloned a mouse candidate modifier gene, M31, that also shows considerable sequence homology to Drosophila HP1.
(16) The evolutionary conservation of the chromo box motif now enables the isolation and study of putative modifier genes in those animal and plant species where chromosomal imprinting has been described.
(17) Therefore great attention should be given to evaluating the immediate and long-run effects of chemical contraceptives both on chromo somes and on the incidence of point mutations.
(18) The carbon-dioxide pertubation or the chromo-pertubation after occlusion of the tubes with a clip permits an immediate intra-operative proof of secure bilateral tubal occlusion.
(19) We have used transgenic lines as well as transient expression assays employing Drosophila tissue culture cells to study the functional role of the Pc chromo domain.
(20) The results show that, in the muntjac, rDNA clusters are associated with the prominent secondary constrictions on the X and the Y1 chromos.
Chromous
Definition:
(a.) Of, pertaining to, or derived from, chromium, when this element has a valence lower than that in chromic compounds.
Example Sentences:
(1) A model compound with similar optical properties to the CO-ligated protein can be prepared in dimethyl sulfoxide from hemin chloride, imidazole, and CO using chromous acetate as the heme reductant.
(2) Chromous ion reacts with ferricytochrome c to yield a one-to-one Cr(III)-ferrocytochrome c complex.
(3) The kinetics of reduction by chromous ion and ascorbate are shown to be unchanged from that of the native molecule, as are the kinetics of NO binding.
(4) Rates for inorganic species (process 1) range from greater than 7 X 10(3) (chromous ion) to 0.015 M-1 s-1 (ferrocyanide).
(5) Tris(2,2'-bipyridine)ruthenium (II), chromous chloride, chromous acetate, titanium III citrate, 2,8-diaminoacridine, formamidinesulfinic acid, cob(I)alamin (B12s), and dithiothreitol were tested as electron donors; the most effective donor was titanium III citrate.
(6) The reduction of Cu(330) in Rhus vernicifera laccase by chromous ion is 30% faster than reduction of Cu(614) at room temperature [pH 4.8, mu = 0.1 (NaCl)], and two parallel first-order paths, attributed to heterogeneity of the protein, are observed at both wavelengths.
(7) The reactions of stellacyanin, spinach and French-bean plastocyanins, and cytochrome c with chromous ion under similar conditions are faster than that with laccase by factors of 10(2) to 10(4), and are first order in protein concentration.
(8) The formation of an alphabeta-unsaturated ketone on reduction of bacilysin with chromous chloride also showed that the epoxide was alphabeta to the keto group.
(9) The position of the chromic ion implies what is the path of electron transfer from the chromous ion to the ferric ion in this chemical reduction of cytochrome c, and suggests a possible path of electron transfer in biological oxidation-reduction reactions.
