0 a part of a molecule, especially a molecule of protein
1 a part of a molecule, esp. a molecule of protein (= chemical in all living cells)
The large subunits are chloroplast encoded and are arranged as 4 dimers.
Remodeling of alpha-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazole-propionic acid receptor subunit composition in hippocampal neurons after global ischemia.
A subunit vaccine consists of a part of the virus, typically a protein capable of generating a protective immune response in immunised persons.
The other subunit combinations would also be sensitive to zinc, but to a lesser extent.
The site of biological activity can be confined within each subunit, or it can be located at the interface between subunits.
The nucleotide state of the catalytic centers together with the position of the subunit determines the conformation of the associated subunit.
Assembly of the inhibitory glycine receptor: identification of amino acid sequence motifs governing subunit stoichiometry.
All the axial structures are helical assemblies of subunit proteins and are therefore likely to have a central channel.
