How can you use “flanking” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:
An example in the case of the recombinase genes is the loss of recF, which is required for some recA functions [ 38] and which was deleted individually with both flanking genes retained (Table 1).
Thus, the current flanking sequences of L1s may be an inaccurate reflection of the target DNA of any given L1 at the time of insertion.
The trans-silencers as well as their targets reside in single-copy, gene-rich regions that are only sparsely populated with repetitive or transposable elements, features that have been shown to mediate epigenetic activity in other cases [ 18 31 32 ] . Therefore trans-silencing of GFP-COP1 is probably not mediated by transgene flanking sequences [ 27 ] . In contrast, as with other genes cited above, trans-silencing ability is correlated with transgene locus structure, given that the C73 and C97 trans-silencers contain multiple T-DNAs while their targets, E82 and L91, are essentially dimeric and monomeric, respectively.
This 3' sequence becomes transduced, along with the L1 sequence, to a new genomic locus; a hypothesized cause of the imprecision of the 3' end of the L1 transcript is the weak polyadenylation signal in the L1 element [ 28 ] . Clear indications of 3' transduction have been documented in cases where an L1 inserted into the dystrophin gene [ 29 ] , APC [ 30 ] and CYBB [ 31 ] . All these disease-producing L1 insertions, the boundaries of which were defined by flanking TSDs, contained novel sequences downstream of the L1 sequence itself.
In fact, on many, if not most, American ranches nowadays all of these operations are performed in chutes rather than by roping calves from horseback and flanking and hogtying them.
