(12) The deduced amino acid sequence of ORF1 is related to the Klebsiella pneumoniae PulE protein, to the Bacillus subtilis ComG ORF1 and to the Agrobacterium tumefaciens VirB ORF11 products.
Pulp
Definition:
(n.) A moist, slightly cohering mass, consisting of soft, undissolved animal or vegetable matter.
(n.) A tissue or part resembling pulp; especially, the soft, highly vascular and sensitive tissue which fills the central cavity, called the pulp cavity, of teeth.
(n.) The soft, succulent part of fruit; as, the pulp of a grape.
(n.) The exterior part of a coffee berry.
(n.) The material of which paper is made when ground up and suspended in water.
(v. t.) To reduce to pulp.
(v. t.) To deprive of the pulp, or integument.
Example Sentences:
