(4) In addition, transitional macrophages with both positive granules and positive RER, nuclear envelope, negative Golgi apparatus (as in exudate- resident macrophages in vivo), and mature macrophages with peroxidatic activity only in the RER and nuclear envelope (as in resident macrophages in vivo) were found.
(5) Studies using serum from mice that had been immunized with synthetic peptides from the HIV envelope region suggested that this response is directed, at least in part, at several determinants of the transmembrane portion of the HIV envelope glycoprotein.
(6) The influence of exogenous gangliosides on the structure of the viral envelope was studied using fluorescent and photoactivatable phospholipids incorporated into the viral membrane.
(7) Cells infected with enveloped viruses are good systems for studying both aspects of protein glycosylation, since they contain a limited number of different glycoproteins, often with well-defined functions.
(8) The enzyme was removed from the cell envelope by treatment of the whole cells with sodium dodecyl sulfate, Triton X-100, sodium deoxycholate, and proteinase K.
(9) After virus release the major portion of precursors is assembled within an approximately 25 nm thick layer directly attached to the envelope.
(10) This single substitution was sufficient to abolish all detectable cleavage of the gp160 envelope precursor polypeptide as well as virus infectivity.
(11) The envelope glycoprotein of human immunodeficiency virus consists of two subunits, designated gp120 and gp41, derived from the cleavage of a precursor polypeptide gp160.
(12) Lipopolysaccharide content correlated significantly with drug uptake and sensitivity, and it appeared to determine the degree of penetration of the cell envelope by these chlorinated phenols.
(13) Matrix protein (36,500 daltons), one of the major polypeptides of the Escherichia coli cell envelope, is arranged in a periodic monolayer which covers the outer surface of the peptidoglycan.
(14) Translation of mRNA encoding vesicular stomatitis virus envelope glycoprotein G by as membrane-free ribosomal extract obtained from HeLa cells yielded a nonglycosylated protein (G1 (Mr 63,000).
(15) For both the single- and multiple-band signals, performance was best when the signal band(s) had a different envelope from the common envelope of the cue bands, and performance was worst when either the cue bands all had different envelopes, or the signal and cue bands all shared the same envelope.
(16) The data collected by several approaches reveal that assembly and maturation of vaccinia involves a tightly coupled sequence of interrelated events including the assembly of the envelope, post-translational cleavage of several virion polypeptides, and induction of the core enzymes.
(17) The relationship of vaccinia haemagglutinin (HA) to extracellular enveloped virus (EEV) was examined.
(18) April 17, 2013 The third floor isn't doing so well either: Rebecca Berg (@rebeccagberg) Capitol police email Senate offices: Police "are responding to a suspicious envelope on the third floor of the Hart Senate Office Building."
(19) Several fractions were extracted from the cell envelope (CE) of Neisseria meningitidis group B and characterized with regard to their morphology, antigenicity, protein composition, and toxicity.
(20) This preactivated merocyanine 540 was then mixed (in the dark) with tumour cells, normal cells and envelope viruses to assess its antiproliferative activity.
Involucrum
Definition:
(n.) See Involucre.
(n.) A sheath which surrounds the base of the lasso cells in the Siphonophora.
Example Sentences:
(1) The left femur, with pathologic fracture and involucrum, and the right femur, tibia and fibula were most severely affected.
(2) Sequestrectomy should be reserved for cases where a sequestrum and adequate involucrum can be seen on X-ray.
(3) Half the defects were due to removal of the sequestrum before the involucrum had formed.
(4) If the involucrum fails to form we reconstruct the tibia as soon as possible after sequestrectomy.
(5) Hyperkeratosis was characterized by strong positive staining for involucrum in spinous and granular cell layers.
(6) In chronic stage, we suggest sequestrectomy only after adequate involucrum has formed properly.
(7) In nine of the patients in Group I (four tibial and five femoral lesions), an involucrum bridged the osseous defect, indicating that the periosteal tube had not been destroyed.
(8) The graft was sutured to the epididymal involucrum, punctured through the scrotal skin by an injection needle and aspirated spermatozoa accumulated in the internal cavity, and subjected to AIH.
(9) The fresh and frozen allogeneic transplants were accepted by the host as was evidenced by the involucrum formations.
