Example sentences for: alu

How can you use “alu” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:

  • The striking enrichment of Alu elements at the junctions between duplicated and single copy sequences implicates unequal crossing over between these repeats in the generation of segmental duplications (Bailey et al.

  • For this purpose, we designed two specific probes - a 56-bp alphoid DNA fragment ( Sat -probe) and a 124-bp Alu fragment ( Alu -probe).

  • Recent evidence suggests that the explosion of segmental duplications in recent primate evolution has been caused in part by the rapid proliferation of Alu elements about 40 MYA.

  • Not only does L1 sequence itself contribute at least 462 megabases (Mb) to our genome (17% of the total length) [ 1 ] , but copies of the Alu and SVA transposable elements and processed pseudogenes are also believed to have inserted into the genome by borrowing the EN and RT proteins encoded by L1 [ 13 20 21 24 25 26 27 ] . In addition to self-mobilization and mobilization of other transposable elements, L1s can also move unique flanking DNA sequence to another locus in the genome in a process known as 3' transduction.

  • Similar results were obtained during cloning of genomic fragments using the Alu -containing vector pARS-Alu90 (data not shown).
