Example sentences for: genotype-phenotype

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

  • For example, exon-skipping mutations in the central region of the gene, exons 24-32, cause severe phenotypes or neonatal presentations [ 8 ] . But there are exceptions, only four of the many other mutations in this region cause severe phenotypes, while one mutation predicted to lead to skipping of exon 24 was found in a patient with classic MFS [ 5 ] . In contrast, most cysteine substitutions cause classic MFS with a high frequency of lens dislocation, although some patients in our study did not meet the Ghent criteria for diagnosis of MFS [ 9 ] . Amino-acid substitutions not disrupting disulfide bonds may be associated with fibrillinopathies other than MFS, although mutations in the calcium-binding consensus sequence have been reported in individuals with classic MFS [ 5 10 11 12 ] . It is clear from the studies reported so far, that genotype-phenotype correlations are not straight-forward for FBN1 mutations.

  • For the case of RNA secondary structure folding, this property of the genotype-phenotype map has been demonstrated analytically using graph theory [ 41 ] , and it has been verified in extensive numerical simulations [ 42 43 ] . Random graph theory predicts that RNA secondary structures can be classified into common structures, which can be found almost anywhere in sequence space, and rare structures.

  • These case studies were chosen to further investigate the metabolic genotype-phenotype relation in silico and to demonstrate the use of FBA to interpret and analyze cellular metabolism.

  • Note that this is not a model for the evolution of genotype frequencies or for the maintenance of MHC heterozygosity, but simply an algebraic framework for predicting the outcome of an epidemiological study of the type cited above, given current allele frequencies and genotype-phenotype mappings.

  • This sub-section illustrated the condition-dependent effect of gene deletions on the metabolic genotype-phenotype relation.
