Words similar to duplicates
Example sentences for: duplicates
How can you use “duplicates” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:
All duplicates were cross-referenced and apparent pseudogenes having frameshifts, deletions and other defects obviously incompatible with receptor function were eliminated.
This burst of selection is necessarily episodic—once a new function is attained by one of the duplicates, selective constraints on this gene are reasserted.
This leads to the observation of ‘concerted evolution’ whereby duplicates within a species can be highly similar and yet continue to diverge between species (Figure 3).
In Figure 6, we demonstrate that this log-normality occurs very systematically: we show the two best and two worst (judged by the linearity of the QQ plots and the amount of outliers) from 40 human HG-U95A duplicates collected in a study of rheumatoid arthritis (see Materials and methods).
Indeed, evolution of a new beneficial function in one of the duplicates, once a relatively high level of divergence (which will be different for different genes, depending on the specific function involved) is reached, appears to be common among duplicated genes as demonstrated for several paralogous gene families [ 33, 52, 54, 67].
