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

Barring other duplication events that may have been lost through subsequent deletion, we estimate that the breakpoint region in the ancestral genome was significantly smaller (around 400 kb or potentially smaller).
Conversely, probe RP11-736I24 hybridized to HSA and PTR XVq, indicating the pericentric inversion breakpoint likely lies proximal of this position in the human assembly.
While public and private sequence assemblies now depict the correct location for this gene, previous published reports indicated that this gene mapped proximal to BP3 within the PWS/AS deletion and autism-associated interstitial duplication interval [ 21 22 ] . STS content mapping with regional clones confirms the predicted genomic assemblies and places this gene distal to the BP3 HERC2-containing breakpoint.
This pre-inversion breakpoint sequence exhibited a slight tendency for an 'A' (45% of cases) immediately 5' of the inversion breakpoint (data not shown).
Before this study only a single fixed inversion breakpoint had been characterized at the sequence level in Drosophila [ 24].
