Meanings of alpha subunit in English

Regulation of HIF occurs mainly through oxygen-dependent destruction of its alpha subunit.

However, suppressing the alpha subunit of hypoxia-inducible factors had no effect on this process.

Objective: To investigate the expression of G proteins alpha subunit mRNA in different thyroid diseases.

This indicates markedly differing roles for integrin alpha subunit cytoplasmic domains in post-ligand binding events.

Cells respond to physiological stress by phosphorylating the alpha subunit of the translation initiation factor eIF2.

Immunohistochemistry experiments confirm that these cells express the BK alpha subunit, which is located on the apical membrane.

Such a correlation is seen at one, and only one, of the aromatic residues-tryptophan-149 of the alpha subunit.

This peptide became specifically cross-linked to GPIIb, and platelet stimulation selectively enhanced its cross-linking to this alpha subunit.

This suggests that imidacloprid has complex effects upon these recombinant receptors, determined at least in part by the alpha subunit.

Homology modeling and mutagenesis experiments suggest the presence of an H-NOX domain in the alpha subunit with importance for heme binding.

Overproduction of the E1 alpha subunit in batch cultures resulted in a two-threefold increase in the activity of the PDH complex.

The glycoprotein hormones are heterodimeric proteins that share a common alpha subunit and have unique beta subunits that confer receptor selectivity.

In contrast, Kv4.3 potassium channel alpha subunit mRNA was expressed at equal levels across the ventricular wall.

In contrast, 2 monoclonal antibodies that do not inhibit insulin binding were found to recognize the cysteine-rich region of the alpha subunit.

Analysis of sequential sections revealed that the alpha subunit of Fc epsilon RI was localized to both mast cells and dendritic cells.

To complement this approach, we have similarly analyzed residues on the alpha subunit face of the binding site dictating specificity for alpha-toxin.
