Example sentences for: homeologs

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

  • The Arabidopsis homeologs of TG269, TG389, and CT190 in MSR1 had corresponding E -values of 4e -3, 2e -7, and 3e -5, respectively.

  • The second microsyntenic region (MSR2) spanned two Arabidopsis BAC clones, F11l11 (AL079347) and M4E13 (AL022023), and was also located on chromosome 4, but only yielded homeologs for tomato markers TG269 and CT190 ( E -values of 1e -3and 8e -3, respectively).

  • The Arabidopsis homeologs of markers TG269 (AT4g38850), TG389 (AT4g38730), and CT190 (AT4g38580) encode a small auxin-upregulated protein (SAUR), a hypothetical protein of unknown function (HP) and a farnesylated protein (FP), respectively.

  • However, the E -value for each BLAST hit was quite different between TBLASTX and BLASTN, suggesting that an arbitrary threshold E -value is critical to determine acceptance of BLAST matches between evolutionarily distant nucleotide sequences and to place the homeologs on Arabidopsis chromosomes.

  • Moreover, two recent comparative sequence analyses using monocots versus Arabidopsis [ 29] and dicots versus Arabidopsis [ 11] clearly showed that exon sizes are well conserved in homeologs even between monocots and dicots, whereas intron length varied in rice versus barley and tomato versus Arabidopsis . In BLAST searches using either the processed nucleotide sequence or the predicted protein sequence of an Arabidopsis gene, the score of each BLAST match was clearly higher and the E -value was significantly lower when compared to the use of either non-processed nucleotide sequence or intergenic nucleotide sequence.
