Example Sentences:

  • (1) On the basis of genetic, phenotypic and physiological criteria, these mutants are divided into four groups: 1) the cytochrome aa3 and b deficient "poky" variants that are defective in mitochondrial ribosomes assembly, 2) the cytochrome aa3 deficient mutants, [mi-3] and [exn-5], that appear to have genetic lesions affecting a component of a regulatory system controlling cytochrome aa3 synthesis, 3) the cytochrome aa3 and b deficient "stopper" mutants with physiological lesions that probably affect mitochondrial protein synthesis, and 4) cni-3, a mutant that is constitutive for an inducible mitochondrial cyanide-insensitive oxidase in spite of having a normal cytochrome mediated electron-transport system.
  • (2) Cell respiration in wild type and poky was studied as part of a long-term investigation of cyanide-resistant respiration in Neurospora.
  • (3) Six independently isolated Group 1 extranuclear mutants, namely [exn-1], [exn-2], [exn-4-a1, [stp-b1], [SG-1] and [SG-3-A1, which have growth and cytochrome phenotypes similar to [poky] also were found to be deficient in small subunits of mitochondrial ribosomes.
  • (4) Seven nonallelic nuclear suppressors of [poky] result in increased concentrations of the mt small rRNA and pre-rRNAs, but do not restore the ability to synthesize small rRNAs having the correct 5' ends.
  • (5) Group I consists of 8 female-fertile variants with both poky-like growth and cytochrome defects.
  • (6) Two-dimensional gel electrophoresis was used to examine mit ribosomal proteins from [poky] and six additional extra-nuclear mutants with defects in the assembly of mit small subunits.
  • (7) Six nuclear suppressors of the (poky) cytoplasmic mutant (sup-1, sup-3, sup-4, sup-5, sup-10, sup-14) have been obtained in Neurospora crassa.
  • (8) However, the transmission of the [poky] mutation does not appear to be correlated with the transmission of either of these insertions or of other physical markers.
  • (9) Mitochondria from the cytochrome-deficient mutant poky carried out substrate-driven K+ uptake at reduced rates, but oligomycin-sensitive, ATP-driven K+ uptake at rates about 60% greater than those shown by wild-type mitochondria.
  • (10) But actually Chote's team is only about 20-strong and they operate from a rather poky office on Victoria Street.
  • (11) We have compared the adenosine triphosphatase (ATPase) activity of mitochondria prepared from wild-type Neurospora crassa and from poky, a maternally inherited mutant known to possess defective mitochondrial ribosomes and reduced amounts of cytochromes aa3 and b. poky contains two distinct forms of mitochondrial ATPase.
  • (12) Pokie Nation, set to air next week on the ABC, has been edited to amend the claim.
  • (13) In all these experiments, no difference was detected between wild type and poky in base sequence or methylation of either 19 S or 25 S RNA.
  • (14) The six suppressors are nonallelic, suppress the phenotypic effects of (stp-Bl) in addition to (poky), but have no effect on the phenotype expression of the (mi-3) cytoplasmic mutant.
  • (15) An analysis of the paramagnetic components present in mitochondria isolated from the poky mutant of Neurospora crassa is described.
  • (16) Orta filmed the death of Eric Garner , capturing the moment the 43-year-old was placed in a banned chokehold by an NYPD officer and uttered his last words: “I can’t breathe.” Lawyers Ken Perry and William Aronin sit in the poky downtown Manhattan apartment that serves as their office.
  • (17) The mitochondrial phenotype of [poky] and other extranuclear Neurospora mutants is known to predominate over that of wild type in heteroplasmons.
  • (18) They are not allowed to draw in court, so they must observe, make notes about someone’s characteristics and clothes, and then retreat to a poky press room where they sketch and colour at high speed.
  • (19) The residual small rRNAs in [poky] appear to be synthesized via the upstream promoter(s), but are missing 37-44 nucleotides from their 5' ends, indicating either that pre-rRNAs are processed abnormally or that abnormal 5' RNA ends are unstable.
  • (20) The ribosomal defect shows an extrachromosomal pattern of inheritance in crosses of poky with wild type.
