What's the difference between intercalate and intercalation?
Intercalate
Definition:
(v. t.) To insert, as a day or other portion of time, in a calendar.
(v. t.) To insert among others, as a verse in a stanza; specif. (Geol.), to introduce as a bed or stratum, between the layers of a regular series of rocks.
Example Sentences:
(1) It is suggested that the intercalated disc functioned as a barrier to the freezing process.
(2) The chiral intercalators, at micromolar concentrations, inhibit the reaction of EcoRI, but for each enantiomeric pair it is the lambda enantiomer, which binds only poorly to a B-DNA helix, that inhibits EcoRI preferentially.
(3) The effect of DNA-crosslinking agents (cisplatin and mitomycin C), a DNA-intercalating agent (adriamycin) or monofunctional psoralen (4-Met-4', 5'-dihydropsoralen plus near-ultraviolet radiation) on DNA replication in cultured mouse FM3A cells was studied by sedimentation of the pulse-labeled DNA in an alkaline sucrose gradient.
(4) In 1:1 saturated complexes with the octamers [d(GGATATCC)]2 and [d(GGTTAACC)]2, [N-MeCys3,N-MeCys7]TANDEM binds to each octamer as a bis-intercalator bracketing the TpA step.
(5) These cells were transformed into intercalated duct cells.
(6) We found that the Na-Ca exchanger is distributed throughout all membranes in contact with the extracellular space, including the sarcolemma, the transverse tubules (T-tubules), and the intercalated disks.
(7) : the non-specialized parts of the muscle cell membranes were stained by La3+ as well as the membranes of micropinocytotic vesicles, of the T-system and of the intercalated disc.
(8) In submandibular glands, 1 to 4 weeks after ovariectomy, no changes were observed in percentages of the acinar, intercalated duct, and granular convoluted tubular areas occupying photomicrographs.
(9) Repair not only implies the closing of DNA nicks, but very likely the degradation of the BLM molecules intercalated in the DNA interrupting the reactions responsible for the generation of free radicals.
(10) High content of CA II was found in intercalated cells as determined by morphology, although a weak diffuse cytoplasmic staining of this enzyme could be observed also in a subpopulation of principal cells.
(11) Laser scanning confocal microscopy has confirmed that the localization of ventricular myocyte gap junctions is solely within intercalated disks.
(12) The value of K (4000 M-1) is similar for anti-BADE and 3-MCDE, although the latter is not intercalated in the classical sense since the short axis of the molecule is tilted closer to the axis of the DNA double helix.
(13) The complex of 1 is the first example found to date of this type of intercalation of the methyl group with DNA.
(14) Transcription proceeded to immediately upstream of CpA sequences in nine of these sites, and this defines the most preferred intercalation site as CpA.
(15) Changes in the mode of DNA packaging in nuclei during spermatogenesis were studied by measuring of the fluorescence anisotropy decay of an ethidium dye intercalated in the DNA in whole nuclei.
(16) Na-K-ATPase, localized to the basolateral membrane, was more abundant in principal cells than in intercalated cells in the CCD.
(17) We have conducted stopped-flow kinetics association and dissociation experiments on the interaction of these anthraquinones with calf thymus DNA and with DNA polymers with alternating AT and GC base pairs to experimentally determine the binding mode and how the threading mode affects intercalation rates relative to similarly substituted classical intercalators.
(18) This effect is attributed to intercalation of the ellipticine chromophore.
(19) Nerve fasciculi consisting of neuronal processes and enteroglial cell sheaths formed a three-dimensional network intercalated between blood and lymph vessels.
(20) A number of unfused tricyclic aromatic intercalators have shown excellent activity as amplifiers of the anticancer activity of the bleomycins and the 4',6-diphenylpyrimidines, 2a and 2b, with terminal basic functions (4-methylpiperazino groups) have been synthesized to test the structural requirements for amplifier-DNA interactions.
Intercalation
Definition:
(n.) The insertion of a day, or other portion of time, in a calendar.
(n.) The insertion or introduction of anything among others, as the insertion of a phrase, line, or verse in a metrical composition; specif. (Geol.), the intrusion of a bed or layer between other layers.
