Example sentences for: deuterostome

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

Unlike all of the deuterostome genes, the positions of introns among the insect genes were not conserved to the nucleotide, and were thus assigned with less confidence and should hence be considered provisional.
Two of the invertebrates in our collection with completely sequenced genomes, the protostome C. elegans and the deuterostome C. intestinalis , each were found to contain a single Runx gene.
The N-terminal end of this exon is bounded by an intron whose position is absolutely conserved among all Runx genes except DmRunt and AgRunt (which have apparently lost the intron), while the C-terminal end is bounded by an intron that is conserved among all deuterostome species in our collection, and shifted but a few nucleotides downstream in the insect genes and upstream in the C. elegans gene.
3); the main observations derived from each method are summarized in Table 1. The consensus of phylogenetic approaches strongly indicates the monophyly of the deuterostome Runx genes in the collection, with the expected relationships (echinoderms(urochordates(vertebrates))).
The same tree topology was supported by both neighbor-joining and maximum-likelihood trees, though lack of a clear ortholog from a more distant organism (for example, a deuterostome) makes this type of assessment, regarding gene history, more difficult.
