Example sentences for: encodes

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

  • The aph gene encodes an uncharacterized protein of the defined alkaline phosphatases (metalloenzyme superfamily) (group COG1524 in the COGS database).

  • A potential translation initiation codon in the NotI/BamHI fragment (3 kb) of clone 4B1 starts an open reading frame that encodes a polypeptide sequence highly homologous to the first six transmembrane domains of the human EP2 receptor [ 20 ] . The amino acid sequence of the open reading frame in the NotI fragment (6 kb) of clone 6A was homologous to the seventh transmembrane domain (TMD VII), followed by a short C-terminal tail and an in-frame stop codon.

  • We previously employed luc reporting to study the effects of a cryptochrome mutation ( cry b ), concentrating on clock gene expression in isolated antennal pairs from Drosophila [ 23 ] . Earlier studies established that cry encodes a 'deep-brain' element of the photoreceptive pathway to the circadian clock [ 24 25 26 ] . But our study suggested a different role for cry in the periphery, because antennal rhythmicity in mutant specimens was dramatically reduced in constant darkness [ 23 ] , an effect that is not consistent with the idea that the encoded protein (CRY) functions solely as a photoreceptor for the circadian system [ 24 25 ] .

  • The DAZ gene family encodes RNA binding proteins that are expressed specifically in germ cells.

  • This plasmid, called pCD1 [ 1 ] in Y. pestis , encodes for a type III secretion apparatus necessary for the translocation of effector proteins (Yops) into eukaryotic target cells [ 2 ] . The net result of this polarized toxin translocation is the disruption of eukaryotic cell signalling and structure [ 2 ] . Induction of the virulence-related genes on pCD1 is linked to an in vitro phenomenon termed the Low Calcium Response (LCR).
