Tat


Definition:

  • (n.) Gunny cloth made from the fiber of the Corchorus olitorius, or jute.
  • (n.) A pony.

Example Sentences:

  • (1) Therefore, neither of these two regions of the Tat protein appear to be discrete activation domains.
  • (2) We now present evidence that such a decrease in amounts of P68 could be essential for HIV-1 replication because of the presence of the Tat-responsive sequence (TAR sequence) present in the 5' untranslated region of HIV-1 mRNAs, which activates the P68 kinase.
  • (3) In this study we demonstrate that the presence of the human immunodeficiency virus type 1 regulatory protein Tat is associated with a significant induction in the expression of certain protein components of the extracellular matrix in glial-derived cells.

  • (6) Purified tat binds specifically to HIV-1 trans-activation-responsive region (TAR) RNA in gel-retardation, filter-binding, and immunoprecipitation assays.
  • (7) This phenomenon was observed by using wheat-germ RNA polymerase II and a series of double-stranded template polymers containing palindromic repeating motifs of 6-16 bp, with regulatory alternating purine and pyrimidine bases such as d[ATA(CG)nC].d[TAT(GC)nG], with n = 1, 3 or 6 referred to as d(GC), d(GC)3 or d(GC)6, respectively.
  • (8) RD-tat cell lines also showed enhanced virus production upon transfection of HIV-1 proviral DNA.
  • (9) A comparative study between MAR test and IBT in 142 seminal samples is presented by the authors and their concordance with TAT and SIT is also evaluated.
  • (10) Viral mRNA production is controlled by the tat gene, which appears to stimulate elongation by RNA polymerase II, and the rev gene, which allows the accumulation of unspliced or partially spliced mRNAs in the cytoplasm.
  • (11) Experiments using radioactive protein show that tat becomes localized to the nucleus after uptake and suggest that chloroquine protects tat from proteolytic degradation.
  • (12) To reduce the high TAT under the deficient state of ATIII, MD805, a synthetic thrombin inhibitor, was introduced to avoid further consumption of ATIII.
  • (13) Of 199 dogs from a brucellosis-contaminated area, 116 with negative titers in the tube agglutination test (TAT), using heat-inactivated whole B. canis cells as the antigen, were also negative in the ELISA.
  • (14) A psychological interview and the MHQ, Koch, Rorschach, TAT, Machover and family design psychological tests were conducted in pneumopathic patients.
  • (15) As TNF can increase the production of IL-1 and IL-6 and these inflammatory cytokines all enhance HIV-1 gene expression and affect the immune, vascular, and central nervous systems, the activation of TNF by Tat may be part of a complex pathway in which HIV-1 uses viral products and host factors to increase its own expression and infectivity and to induce disease.
  • (16) This study used transient transfection analysis to determine the DNA regions which mediate basal and insulin-sensitive transcription from the gene encoding tyrosine aminotransferase (TAT; EC 2.6.1.5).
  • (17) The results show that availability of dietary pyridoxine stimulates the growth of this hepatoma and, in addition, exercises a type of control over the expression of TAT activity.
  • (18) Induction of the rat tyrosine aminotransferase gene (TAT) with glucocorticoid hormones leads to formation of a nuclease hypersensitive site at the hormone-dependent enhancer located 2.5 kb upstream of the start site of transcription.
  • (19) Again, tat protected TAR RNA from RNase A cleavage at both U23 and U31.
  • (20) The human immunodeficiency virus type 1 Tat protein is a powerful transactivator of the viral long terminal repeat (LTR).

Tatu


Definition:

  • (n.) Same as Tatou.

Example Sentences:

  • (1) Part 1 of this report is based on a special sample taken when Tatu was 63 months old and Dar was 56 months old, in which experimenters used a large pool of nameable objects, and asked a naming question and at least one descriptive question about the same object in the same context.
  • (2) Tatu and Dar replied to naming questions (WHAT THAT?
  • (3) "And when they do, it's usually a citation – for example, today's Femen protest or, several years ago, quoting a song from [the Russian rock group] Tatu."

  • (6) The chimpanzees Washoe, Moja, Tatu, and Dar were reared under human cross-fostering conditions that included the use of American Sign Language (ASL) as the medium of two-way communication.
  • (7) Ten positive, five neutral, and five negative events were presented to two chimpanzees, Tatu (female, 64 months old) and Dar (male, 56 months old), who had been cross-fostered from birth by human beings.
