What's the difference between cymogene and zymogene?

Cymogene


Definition:

  • (n.) A highly volatile liquid, condensed by cold and pressure from the first products of the distillation of petroleum; -- used for producing low temperatures.

Example Sentences:

Zymogene


Definition:

  • (n.) One of a physiological group of globular bacteria which produces fermentations of diverse nature; -- distinguished from pathogene.

Example Sentences:

  • (1) The study confirms that secretin influences pancreatic protein secretion and indicates in addition, that pharmacologic doses of the hormone, have the capacity to block acinar cell zymogen granule release.
  • (2) The data indicate that collagenase is released from the cells in inactive form, as a zymogen.
  • (3) Thus it can be tentatively suggested that it is prokallikrein A which is secreted into the pancreatic juice and represents the physiologically important zymogen.
  • (4) The presence of acinar cells with zymogen granules, squamous metaplasia and endocrine components makes the diagnosis.
  • (5) The cDNA-inferred amino acid sequence of apo[a] indicates that apo[a], like plasminogen and some zymogens, is composed of a kringle domain and a serine protease domain.
  • (6) When aprotinin was added during the course of the purification, the major species isolated was the zymogen form (28,000 Da) of pump-1.
  • (7) At very low detergent concentrations, below the critical micelle concentration, the anionic sulfates induce protein aggregation such that phospholipase A2, as well as its zymogen, is present in high molecular weight complexes containing several protein molecules.
  • (8) We combined these changes with a genetically altered glycoform to generate a zymogen protein C with a 60-fold increased cleavage rate by free alpha-thrombin, independent of its cofactor thrombomodulin.
  • (9) During autoactivation in a cell-free system, the 55 and 53 kDa zymogens are sequentially converted into the 49, 36, 31 and 25 kDa forms.
  • (10) Human C'1, a macromolecular complex composed of three subunits, is the zymogen for at least two distinct enzymes.
  • (11) Combination therapy with E-3123 and CMZ showed significant protective effects against the high mortality rate, increased serum amylase and ascitic fluid amylase levels, pancreatic amylase and lysosomal enzyme content, plasma endotoxin levels, redistribution of lysosomal enzyme from the lysosomal to the zymogen fraction, lysosomal and mitochondrial fragility, and also improved the histological findings when compared with the E-3123 alone.
  • (12) The circulating zymogen form of thrombin, prothrombin, was converted to proteolytically active thrombin during incubation with ECM.
  • (13) In the three groups of animals, lipase antigenic sites were detected with high resolution in the acinar cells in the compartments involved in protein secretion: rough endoplasmic reticulum, Golgi apparatus, and secretory zymogen granules.
  • (14) The overall identity with other zymogens for gastric proteinases is 27%.
  • (15) The fusion of granules with plasma membranes was unaffected by variation of the Ca2+ concentration over a wide range, but fusion of granules with both plasma membranes and zymogen granule membranes was stimulated by GTP and, more potently, by guanosine 5'-[gamma-thio]triphosphate (GTP[S]).
  • (16) Notably, zymogen granule dissolution neither preceded nor accompanied this swelling, but developed pari passu with cell degradation.
  • (17) We found small amounts of lysosomal enzymes colocalized with digestive enzymes within zymogen granules in normal acinar cells and in normal pancreatic juice, suggesting some physiological roles of lysosomal enzymes in pancreatic ducts.
  • (18) Both tumor cells frequently contained well-developed RER, zymogen-like granules, and annulate lamellae.
  • (19) For the native zymogen the rate of this conversion had been shown to be identical to the rate of cleavage of the scissile bond of pepsinogen.
  • (20) Ala-neochymotrypsinogen was activated by incubating with trypsin at a zymogen : trypsin ratio of 30 : 1 in 0.1 M phosphate buffer, pH 7.6 at 4 degrees C for 1 h. The fully active, stable species was identified as alpha-chymotrypsin.
