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

The Anabaena/Nostoc linkage group is additionally reminiscent of the B. subtilis supraoperon in the presence of aroB and tyrA . Although B. subtilis does not have aroA Iβ represented in its supraoperon (as do Anabaena and Nostoc ), aroA Iβ is the homology class (of three possible DAHP synthase homologs distributed in nature [ 25, 26, 27]) that is utilized by B. subtilis . A number of supraoperon gene insertions have occurred outside of the trp operon as well.
This contrasts with observations of miRNAs in vertebrates, where the majority of known miRNAs are members of paralogous gene sets [ 31 ] . The most extreme examples of this disparity are let-7 and mir-29 , which are present in single copies in Drosophila , but are represented by thirteen and six distinct human homologs, respectively.
For example, the baculovirus repeat ORFs (Bro) proteins are a family of DNA-binding proteins that may regulate both viral and host transcription or chromatin structure, but no homologs, cellular or otherwise, have been identified for these proteins [ 10, 11].
The close grouping of the ethylene-forming enzyme and its Pseudomonas homologs [ 30] to the exclusion of other members of this family in plants indicates a possible recent acquisition of the gene in Pseudomonas from its plant hosts.
Some have been identified by screening with animal homologs whereas others have been identified by sequencing the genes induced in response to biotic and abiotic signals.
