Words similar to euchromatin
Example sentences for: euchromatin
How can you use “euchromatin” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:
In the WGS3 heterochromatin, 45% of gene models have an overlapping EST, compared to 78% in the Release 3 euchromatin.
Most eukaryotes exhibit distinct chromosomal regions that are usually either transcriptionally active (euchromatin) or inactive (heterochromatin).
There are 49 gene models with more than one transcript; only three were annotated in the corresponding portion of Release 2. There are 377 predicted protein-coding transcripts encoding 1,096 distinct exons, three times as many as were annotated in Release 2. The average number of introns per gene model increased from 2 to 2.7, but remains below the 3.6 average in the Release 3 euchromatin.
The transition between heterochromatin and euchromatin appears to be gradual rather than abrupt.
Although the re-annotation process changed the majority of gene models, the number of protein-coding genes changed minimally, from 13,601 genes in Release 1 to 13,474 genes in Release 2 to 13,676 in Release 3, of which 13,379 are in the euchromatin (Table 1) and 297 in the heterochromatin [ 25].
