Example sentences for: drosophilid
How can you use “drosophilid” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:
Therefore, we estimate 72-93 miRNAs (18 reference + 25 novel verified genes + 29-50 additional unverified candidates) at a cutoff that includes 18/24 (75%) members of the reference set, allowing us to extrapolate that drosophilid genomes may contain 96-124, or around 110 miRNA genes.
The blast hit was determined to be homologous if it folded into a similar structure as the drosophilid sequences and one or both helical arms were highly conserved; these candidates are flagged orange on the web output.
Comparisons with Anopheles demonstrate that dipteran miRNA genes evolve rapidly and although none of the reference set is absent from D. pseudoobscura , there may be examples that are specific to individual drosophilid species.
For example, as is the case for their drosophilid counterparts, Anopheles transcripts for two types of Enhancer of split genes (basic helix-loop-helix repressor and Brd-family) contain Brd, K and GY box motifs in their 3' UTRs (E.C.L.
Comparative genomic analyses of orthologous drosophilid genes should aid in this endeavor, as evidenced by the recent demonstration that several conserved motifs in the 3' UTR of the pro-apoptotic gene hid are targets of the miRNA bantam [ 44 ] . Statistically significant pairings of conserved and/or overrepresented 3' UTR motifs can be assessed for complementarity to miRNAs.
