Vire
Definition:
(n.) An arrow, having a rotary motion, formerly used with the crossbow. Cf. Vireton.
Example Sentences:
(1) The virE locus that is responsible for the efficiency of infection by Agrobacterium tumefaciens (T. Hirooka and C. Kado, J. Bacteriol.
(2) Of six vir region complementation groups (virA, virB, virG, virC, virD, and virE) examined by using fusions to reporter genes, the promoters of only two (virC and virD) responded to the ros mutation.
(3) Mutations in these loci eliminate (virA, virB, virD and virG) or significantly restrict (virC and virE) the ability of Agrobacterium to transform plant cells.
(4) The promoter region of virE was analyzed by using gene fusions to promoterless cat and lux genes.
(5) One inducible complex is determined by the virE locus, two Ti-plasmid-dependent complexes are constitutively expressed, and a fourth one is controlled by chromosomal genes.
(6) Deletion of this vir box only completely abolished induction of the virE gene.
(7) "The main allegation is that senior officials at Revenue and Customs have acted ultra vires [beyond their powers] and we are duty bound to take that seriously," she said.
(8) Genetic complementation with mutant and wild-type alleles led to the identification of the virE locus at the right boundary, which was located about 6 kilobases from the left border of the segment of DNA that is transferred into the plant genome.
(9) To investigate the minimum sequences necessary for vir gene induction a deletion derivative of virE that lacks the vir box region was used.
(10) According to the whistleblower's submission to the committee, the estimate of future profits is ultra vires .
(11) Virulence of a virE2 mutant was restored by mixed infection with strains carrying an intact vir region, but not with virA, virB, virD, virE, or virG mutants or chvA, chvB, or exoC mutants.
(12) virE is transcribed from left to right toward the T region.
(13) We established the kinetics of induction for virB, virD, virE, and virG by using lacZ fusions, and we found that the virB mutant strain could not adapt to this low-pH medium unless 1 mM CaCl2 was added.
(14) Active vir fragments contained the strongly acetosyringone-inducible promoters of virB, virC, virD, and virE and the weakly inducible promoters of virA and virG.
(15) virE operon constructs with specific lesions in either virE1 or virE2 were impaired for complementation of pTiA6 delta E. Several mutations specific for the promoter-proximal virE1 locus appeared to have a polar effect on expression of the virE2-encoded 60-kDa protein.
(16) In the present communication, we have analyzed the virE operon at the molecular level.
(17) The virulence regulon of the Agrobacterium tumefaciens TiC58 plasmid is composed of six operons, virA, virB, virG, virC, virD and virE, which direct the transfer of T-DNA into plant cells.
(18) The nucleotide sequence of virE revealed three open reading frames, arranged as an operon, with a potential coding capacity for proteins of 9, 7.1, and 63.5 kilodaltons.
(19) This locus is very similar to the virE locus of octopine type Ti plasmids on the basis of nucleotide and amino acid sequence comparisons as well as genetic complementation analyses.
(20) virE is 2.0 kilobases long and encodes at least one protein of 69 kilodaltons.
