Example sentences for: chloroplasts
How can you use “chloroplasts” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:
Comparative genomics and more specialized fields such as comparative virology, etc., involve the comparison of DNA sequences, genes and genomes [ 12 13 14 ] . Recent rapid data acquisition is allowing the analyses of whole genome sequences, especially the smaller genomes such as mitochondria and chloroplasts [ 15 16 17 ] , as well as the larger bacterial genomes [ 18 19 ] and large tracts of eukaryotic chromosomes, especially from related organisms [ 12 13 14 20 21 22 23 ] . These studies include the determination of the order of genes, i.e., co-linearity [ 24 25 ] , the location of synteny [ 26 27 28 ] and the identification of clusters of orthologous genes [cog] between two genomes [ 21 22 23 ] . Along similar lines of thought, it should be extremely useful to locate, identify and catalog the sets of "core" genes common to these genomes-genomes which otherwise may be related or semi-related or unrelated in other respects.
Lateral transfers of genes into eukaryotic nuclear DNA from the alpha-proteobacterial progenitor of mitochondria and into plant nuclear DNA from the cyanobacterial progenitor of chloroplasts are well documented.
Most of these highly expressed leaf genes are encoded in the nuclear genome, and the proteins are imported into chloroplasts.
As plants contain chloroplasts in leaf and stem cells and many autofluorescent compounds are localized in cell walls, a signal-to-background ratio for GFP detection is probably lower than in animal systems.
4) Among the three cellular organelles in eucaryotes, 1010 introns (85%) occur in the nucleus, 133 (11%) in the mitochondria, and 41 (4%) in the chloroplasts.
