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

First, the mRNAs on the A array were intentionally selected because they were represented in C. elegans cDNA libraries, whereas the B and C array genes (many of them computational predictions) were generally not represented in cDNA libraries.
Mutations in the C. elegans ortholog Cul1 lead to increased cell number [ 9 ] showing that in this organism a different aspect of cell cycle regulation is controlled in a Cul1 dependent fashion.
We carried out a profile search of the Non-Redundant protein database (of the National Center for Biotechnology Information, NCBI) using the PSI-BLAST program [ 13], seeded with lumenal region of the Caenorhabditis elegans p24 family member K08E4.
Several genetic screens performed with C. elegans have identified mutations that interfere with cell migrations (for reviews see [ 2, 3]).
Although complementary sites for both miRNAs are found in the 3' UTRs of several putative nematode targets, these miRNAs are not physically linked in the C. elegans genome and their mutant phenotypes are principally due to misregulation of different transcripts [ 4 5 6 8 ] . The function of these miRNAs has not yet been explicitly demonstrated in other species, but Drosophila let-7 is regulated at the larval-pupal transition by ecdysone [ 49 ] , and all three members of this cluster are present in other insects and in vertebrates, thus implying broadly conserved functions.
