Example sentences for: heterochromatin

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

Twice as many genes in WGS3 heterochromatin have annotated 5' and 3' UTRs as in the corresponding portion of Release 2. The average 5' UTR length is 258 bp and the average 3' UTR length is 335 bp, both of which are close to the average UTR length of Release 3 euchromatic genes.
The BACs at the boundaries between euchromatin and centric heterochromatin (see Table 1) identify 2.1 Mb (150 curated gene models) of heterochromatic sequence at the centric ends of the high-quality Release 3 sequence spanning the euchromatin [ 47].
Although no vital loci have been identified in the proximal heterochromatin of the X chromosome [ 37], several identified loci map near the boundary between the centric heterochromatin and the euchromatin (see [ 38]).
Although we found a much higher density of transposable element sequences in the heterochromatin than in the euchromatin, it is likely that we missed many heterochromatic transposable elements.
Whereas the majority of annotated introns in both the WGS3 heterochromatin and the Release 3 euchromatin are in the range of 50-70 bp, there are clearly more long introns in heterochromatic genes.
