Example sentences for: dicistronic

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

  • In order to categorize a transcript as dicistronic, we required that each CDS exceed 50 amino acids in length and show some similarity to known proteins.

  • Our results confirm that, while not common, numerous examples of apparent dicistronic transcripts are encountered in Drosophila . We limit the term 'dicistronic' to genes that meet the following criteria: two distinct and non-overlapping coding regions contained on a single processed mRNA, requiring internal initiation of translation of the downstream CDS.

  • The majority of dicistronic cases clearly do not conform to such a model of partial ribosome disassembly and continued scanning.

  • Although other groups sometimes describe such genes as dicistronic (since the unprocessed transcript is dicistronic), we do not include this type in our categorization of dicistronic genes (see below).

  • If this is the case, translation of the second CDS within a dicistronic transcript may be effected by the same initiation mechanism.
