Example sentences for: gc-rich

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

The 5' flank of exon 1b is GC-rich and contains multiple Sp1 and Mef2 binding site consensus sequences
• The BTBD2 message contains 255 nucleotides that are 89% GC-rich and are predicted to encode the N-terminus of a 525 amino acid protein.
The 5' flank immediately upstream from the promoter is GC-rich and contains multiple Sp1-like sequences as well as several potential Mef-2 binding sites.
An amino acid's response (Figure 2a) is determined by the mean GC content of its codons (that is, the amino acids with particularly AT- or GC-rich codons are most sensitive to genome GC content), which explains 71-79% of the variance in response, depending on the measure used (slope is the poorest fit; correlation coefficient is the best).
Furthermore, although GC- and gene-rich regions generally lack L1s [ 1 ] , it has been hypothesized that at any given time during the evolution of the human genome, L1s have inserted randomly, but over time, they have been selected against in GC-rich regions [ 44 ] . If this is true, it may be difficult to find evidence in our genome of L1-mediated exon shuffling.
