Example sentences for: duplications

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

  • Duplications in the Drosophila genome are rare in comparison to the number found in mammalian genomes.

  • Thus, the observation that purifying selection appears to act on all recent duplicates and examination of the functions of recently duplicated genes do not support the notion that gene duplication results in true functional redundancy and duplications may achieve fixation despite being redundant [ 26].

  • Generally, the frequency of duplications found on each chromosome was in agreement with a previous study of segmental duplications in the human genome sequence [ 41 ] . Although exceptions to some of the above criteria could be envisaged such that a match to a putative transduced sequence could be legitimate, we settled on these conservative criteria to winnow the results.

  • In principle, genome duplications should be easily identified through the coincident emergence within a phylogeny of many gene families.

  • This subclass has three related categories, depending on the nature of the underlying mutations: (i) large-scale mtDNA deletions and duplications; (ii) point mutations and small rearrangements in protein-coding mtDNA regions; and (iii) small-scale mtDNA mutations in tRNA and rRNA genes [ 8].
