Example sentences for: exon
How can you use “exon” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:
Accordingly, poly(A) sites are not efficiently recognised when positioned between 5' and 3' splice sites [ 38 39 ] , and insertion of a 5' splice site into a 3' terminal exon suppresses polyadenylation [ 40 42 ] . Conversely, upstream 3' splice sites can enhance polyadenylation [ 43 44 45 ] . We find that the proximal hnRNP A2/B1 exon upstream of the provirus does not lose its identity; rather, the exon splices either to the Neo splice site or to the next hnRNP A2/B1 exon.
This 8 amino acid insertion is not found in other TOX subfamily members or the human homologue C20ORF100, and can be explained by an error in the automated computer prediction of the end of the relevant exon.
Indeed when LacZ is introduced into exon 2 in ES cells, leaving the first intron intact, expression of β-galactosidase is readily detectable in the neural-tube floorplate and notochord [ 9].
After lowering the minimum exon length cut-off to 1 bp, all 47 were identified.
A long terminal repeat from a human endogenous retrovirus (HERV) was shown to drive the expression of an intergenic transcript from an unknown gene named HERV-HLTR associating 1 (HHLA1) and human otoconin-90 (OC90) to produce a transcript that is highly expressed in teratocarcinoma cells but not in normal human tissues or cell lines [ 33 ] . In the mouse, a Prion-like downstream gene named doppel (Dpl) was found to have an intergenic transcript that is upregulated in Prion-deficient mice [ 34 ] . The deletion of the Prion gene in these mice removes the splice acceptor site of exon 3, causing the normal Prion transcript to skip the deleted exon and inadvertently upregulate the normally low-abundance intergenic transcript by forcing it to splice more often to the doppel gene.
