What's the difference between constitute and constitutive?

Constitute


Definition:

  • (v. t.) To cause to stand; to establish; to enact.
  • (v. t.) To make up; to compose; to form.
  • (v. t.) To appoint, depute, or elect to an office; to make and empower.
  • (n.) An established law.

Example Sentences:

  • (1) It was found that the skeletal muscle enzyme of the chick embryo is independent of the presence of creatine and consequently is another constitutive enzyme like the creatine kinase of the early embryonic chick heart.
  • (2) By electrophoresis and scanning densitometry, actin was found to constitute about 4% to 6% of the total cellular protein in the human corneal epithelium.
  • (3) The constitution of chromosomes in the two plasmacytomas remained remarkably stable in their homogeneous modal population.
  • (4) In addition, despite the fact that the differences constitutes an information bias, the bias occurs in the same direction and magnitude in all the various subgroups and thus is nondifferential.
  • (5) We report the treatment of 44 boys with constitutional delay of growth and puberty (CDGP) at a mean chronological age of 14.3 years (range, 12.4-17.1) and bone age of 12.1 years (range, 9.1-15.0).
  • (6) An investigation of the constitutive ions of salts revealed that their effects were additive only in the case of salts that have no specific binding capability.
  • (7) The four patients treated in our series recovered fully; the single fatal case constituted an unrecognized case of pneumococcal endocarditis.
  • (8) What constitutes a "mental disorder" for purposes of the insanity defense?
  • (9) The relative contributions of transcriptional and posttranscriptional regulation of gene expression to the increase in constitutively expressed cellular proteins were examined in mouse kidneys undergoing compensatory growth following unilateral nephrectomy (UNI-NX).
  • (10) The data suggest that proinsulin, normally processed in secretory granules and released via the regulated pathway, may also be processed, albeit less efficiently, by the constitutive pathway conversion machinery.
  • (11) In late-passage and cloned HUT102 cells, an increase in HTLV production was concordant with a decrease in constitutive interferon production and the loss of mature T lymphocyte antigens.
  • (12) wt of 70 kd and a pl of 4.7 from the cell lysate of MT-2, a human T cell line constitutively expressing IL-2R, labeled metabolically with [35S]cysteine.
  • (13) Analysts say Zuma's lawyers may try to reach agreement with the prosecutors, while he can also appeal against yesterday's ruling before the constitutional court.
  • (14) The delta qa-1S strain exhibits constitutive expression of the qa genes supporting earlier evidence that the qa-1S gene codes for a repressor.
  • (15) Furthermore, the AMDP-3 scale and its manual constitute a remarkable teaching instrument for psychopathology, not always enough appreciated.
  • (16) Furthermore, a single initial field may constitute an inadequate baseline for clinical follow-up.
  • (17) The polypeptide encoded by this thyroid-specific transcript consisted of a 398-amino acid residue amino-terminal segment, constituting a putative extracellular domain, connected to a 346-residue carboxyl-terminal domain that contained seven putative transmembrane segments.
  • (18) The 3' end of the cell cycle regulated mRNA terminates immediately following the region of hyphenated dyad symmetry typical of most histone mRNAs, whereas the constitutively expressed mRNA has a 1798 nt non-translated trailer that contains the same region of hyphenated dyad symmetry but is polyadenylated.
  • (19) Overall, these data suggest that constitutive lymphokine gene expression may be involved in the in vivo priming of LGL.
  • (20) This constitutes 9.3% of 108 affective disorder patients admitted during the same period.

Constitutive


Definition:

  • (a.) Tending or assisting to constitute or compose; elemental; essential.
  • (a.) Having power to enact, establish, or create; instituting; determining.
