Malm
Definition:
(n.) Alt. of Malmbrick
Example Sentences:

(3) Smaller increases were noted with the cell lines RPMI 7951, HT 144, Malme-3M, MEL-2, and no significant increase was observed with MEL-5.
(4) Treatment of MALME-3 cells with BESPM resulted in an accumulation of N-acetylspermidine in cells and the enhanced excretion of putrescine, spermidine, and N-acetylspermidine into the medium.
(5) The malM gene, encoding a periplasmic protein of unknown function in Escherichia coli, is a highly conserved as genes encoding proteins of known function from the same region.
(6) Treatment of human MALME-3 melanoma cells with 10 microM N1,N11-bis(ethyl)norspermine (BENSPM) for 48-72 h increased SSAT activity by some 1000- to 4000-fold and enabled purification of the enzyme by established procedures--binding on immobilized spermine and elution with spermine followed by binding on Matrex Blue A and elution with coenzyme A.
