(1) Because many humans have high levels of circulating antibodies directed against the enzymatic product of alpha 1----3-galactosyltransferase (Gal alpha 1----3Gal beta 1----4GlcN Ac) (Galili, U., Clark, M. R., Shohet, S. B., Buehler, J., and Macher, B.
(2) 162, 573-582; Galili, U., Buehler, J., Shohet, S. B., and Macher, B.
(3) This natural antibody, designated "anti-Gal," was previously found to bind to terminal Gal alpha 1----3Gal beta 1----4GlcNAc-R on biochemically defined glycolipids (Galili, U., Macher, B.
(4) Previous studies (Galili, U., Clark, M. R., Shohet, S. B., Buehler, J., and Macher, B.

(6) A mouse monoclonal antibody, VIM-2, specific for human blood cells of myelomonocytic lineage, was found to bind to a series of minor gangliosides isolated from the cells of patients with chronic myelogenous leukemia (Uemura, K., Macher, B.A., DeGregorio, M., Scudder, P., Buehler, J., Knapp, W., and Feizi, T. (1985) Biochim.
(7) alpha 1----3-Galactosyltransferase is widely expressed in different mammalian species, with the notable exception of man and Old World monkeys (Galili, U., Shohet, S. B., Kobrin, E., Stults, C.L.M., and Macher, B.
(8) Thus, in an apparently pure batch of crystalline lipid X as obtained by a published procedure (Macher, I.
Matcher
Definition:
(n.) One who, or that which, matches; a matching machine. See under 3d Match.
Example Sentences:
(1) The design of a highly discriminate tRNA motif, common to all cellular tRNAs and not found in a control sequence bank, was accomplished using the pattern matcher in conjunction with the alignment program.
(2) An object detection module ("frame matcher"), operating on the frames, is employed to identify what features need to be extracted from the EEG and to trigger the appropriate "specialist"--specialized signal processing modules--to obtain values for these features.
(3) This is possible even if the mass spectrometer is not equipped with an alternating voltage accelerator provided that it has a peak matcher, although the lack of an alternating voltage accelerator requires two separate injections of the same sample, for quantification and identification; one for the indole profile and another for the 5-hydroxyindole profile.
(4) An application of the pattern matcher to the search for tRNA and group I intron structural motifs in sequence data banks is presented.
(5) Subjects were 13 color matchers and 30 printers who worked rotating shifts.
(6) The columella footplate and round window are completely covered with a second middle ear membrane which apparently serves as an H2O seal and hydrostatic pressure matcher.
