Example sentences for: chromosomes

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

  • The accumulation of the non-circular, broken chromosomes correlated with the growth rate or DNA damage response in most of the recBC -minus background [ 30 ] . The recB or recC null mutation showed low viability even in the absence of exogenous DNA damage [ 31 32 ] . A simple interpretation of these data is that RecA, RecFOR, and RecQJ functions (and RecET functions for the sbcA background) repair chromosome breakage and/or prevent generation of the breakage.

  • Pulsed-field gel electrophoresis analysis of chromosomes after ultraviolet irradiation has revealed extensive chromosome degradation dependent on uvrA incision enzyme [ 27 ] . A report [ 28 ] showed that RecQ and RecJ proteins process nascent DNA at replication forks blocked by ultraviolet irradiation prior to the resumption of DNA synthesis (see also [ 29 ] ).

  • The total sizes of these chromosomes in Cel2 and MGSCv3 are about 2.62 Gb and 2.59 Gb, respectively.

  • They are located on chromosomes I and V, respectively.

  • Since S. pombe contains only three chromosome pairs, aberrant assortment during one or both of the meiotic divisions can produce, by chance, a significant fraction of meiotic products that receive at least one copy of each chromosome and are hence viable [ 38 43 ] . Aberrant segregation can also produce nullisomic aneuploids (missing one or more chromosomes), polysomic aneuploids (having additional copies of individual chromosomes), and diploids [ 38 39 44 ] . In S. pombe the haploids and diploids are viable, nullisomic aneuploids are inviable, and disomic aneuploids tend to lose the extra chromosome or chromosomes and become haploid [ 45 ] . We therefore determined the frequencies of spore viability and meiotic diploidy as genetic measures of chromosome segregation errors.
