How can you use “gc-rich” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:
BLM has been localized to two GC-rich repeated regions (nucleolus and telomeres) [ 20] where the replication machinery is likely to need assistance to back up in order to untangle stalled forks and resolve inappropriate invasive events between repeated sequence elements found on multiple chromosomes.
The 5' flank of exon 1b is GC-rich and contains multiple Sp1 and Mef2 binding site consensus sequences
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.
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.
The flanking regions of exons 1a and 1b were analyzed for potential transcription factor binding sites using the Transfac database and search engine [ 34 ] . The flank of exon 1b is GC-rich and contains multiple potential Sp1 binding sites close to the promoter.
