Example sentences for: homozygosity
How can you use “homozygosity” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:
There were insufficient numbers of index patients homozygous for A*01-B*08 to estimate the effect of homozygosity for this haplotype on serum immunoglobulin concentrations.
Some of the haplotypes significantly associated with CVID and IgGSD in the present study also occur with significantly increased frequencies in central Alabama Caucasian hemochromatosis probands with homozygosity for HFE C282Y on Ch6p [ 10 ] . These haplotypes are A*03-B*07 and A*03-B*14 [ [ 10 ] ; present study].
Probands were included who had: a) diagnosis of hemochromatosis in routine medical care during the interval 1997 - 2001; b) C282Y homozygosity; c) available HLA-A and -B typing; and d) residence in central Alabama.
This frequency of homozygosity at a nonessential locus is similar to that reported by Mitchell's group (2 out of 30) for homozygous disruption of the C. albicans CDC25 gene [ 16 ] . These results confirm that the single-transformation test can, in our hands, be used to identify a nonessential gene and they underscore the inference from the data presented here that RNA triphosphatase is essential for growth of C. albicans.
For most comparisons, recent tabulations of A and B allele associations in 21 case-control studies from thirteen countries and A and B haplotype analyses in persons with hemochromatosis and control subjects in eight countries or regions were used [ 16 ] . We also made computerized and manual searches to identify estimates of the prevalence of C282Y homozygosity in hemochromatosis cases in various countries or regions for which A and B haplotype data were also available.
