Example sentences for: arsc

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

  • The non-enteric γ-Proteobacteria actually appear to be paraphyletic with regards to arsC , in that the two Xanthomonas species group with the α-Proteobacteria, whereas the others form a distinct group with the sole representative of the β-Proteobacteria ( R. solanacearum ). The phylogenetic affiliation of the latter clade is uncertain: ED analysis placed it as a deep branch in the Low GC Gram positive Bacteria group (Figure 2), whereas MP placed it loosely with the large Enterobacteriales/α-Proteobacteria group (Figure 3).

  • The arsC gene is of particular interest in that its product, the soluble enzyme arsenate reductase, catalyzes the reduction of arsenate to arsenite.

  • The paraphyletic arsC sequences in the non-enteric γ-Proteobacteria likewise may have arisen from HGT events, although the difficulty in resolving the affiliation of some of these sequences makes speculation about their evolution premature.

  • Despite the potential importance of the arsC gene at both a physiological and environmental level, a thorough study of the phylogenetic distribution of different arsC genes has not been performed.

  • Because three arsC genes have been reported for different strains/plasmids of E. coli , and two arsC genes have been identified for both Salmonella typhimurium and Clostridium acetobutylicum (plasmid and chromosomal for each; Table 1 [see Additional file 1]) only one 16S rRNA sequence was used for each to avoid potential biases and inaccurate attractions due to sequence identity.
