Words similar to intron-exon

Example sentences for: intron-exon

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

To determine the intron-exon structure of gene models, curators visually inspected the alignment of computational evidence types to the WGS3 heterochromatic sequences using Apollo.
The intron-exon borders were defined by divergence of the cDNA and genomic sequences, and by their adherence to splice donor and acceptor consensus sequences.
Specifically, putative introns were located by searching for the termini of open reading frames, and then positioned in such a way that the resulting open reading frame had maximum similarity to that of a homologous gene while the intron-exon junctions had the expected consensus 5'GT/-AG-3' sequence.
In addition, important details of gene models will prove difficult to predict using only comparative data, as amino-acid divergence (especially insertions or deletions) can obscure intron-exon boundaries and other details of gene structure.
The predicted splice sites were compared with results of the TBLASTN to help confirm intron-exon boundaries.
