Example sentences for: double-strand

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

V(D)J recombination proceeds by the introduction of double-strand DNA breaks (reviewed in [ 41]).
double-strand cutting activity, and thereby explaining coupled action between chromatid cutting and telomere addition (see below).
[ 26 ] found that both sensitivity to DNA damaging agents and decreased association of crossing-over with double-strand break repair in a recBC sbcA recJ strain are suppressed by mutant recQ alleles.
Meiotically induced, Spo11 (Rec12)-dependent double-strand DNA (dsDNA) breaks have been demonstrated in budding yeast and fission yeast [ 12 13 14 15 ] . Spo11 almost certainly catalyzes these breaks, as it shares high homology with the A subunit of Topoisomerase VI of Sulfolobus shibatae [ 16 17 ] and it becomes linked by a phosphotyrosine linkage to the 5' end of the cleaved DNA [ 18 19 20 21 ] . Spo11 homologs have been identified in a wide range of eukaryotes, and available evidence suggests that initiation of meiotic recombination via Spo11-dependent dsDNA break formation is conserved [ 22 23 24 25 ] . Our results with the fission yeast S. pombe fully support this view (see results and discussion).
Therefore, our finding of accumulation of more of the non-linear forms in a rich medium than in a poor medium (Figure 1) does not immediately allow us to conclude that starving conditions induce a chromosomal double-strand breakage.
