Example sentences for: inversion

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

  • We selected probes to refine the chimpanzee XVq11-q13 pericentric inversion breakpoint on the basis of YAC maps of human 15q11-q13, in addition to the genome assemblies produced by the Human Genome Project [ 30 31 ] . We chose BACs targeted for complete sequencing (Figure 1) so that the underlying sequence of each probe would be available for further analysis pending comparative FISH results.

  • The wind whistles with great force in Fuerteventura and may even have given the island its name, a corruption and inversion of el viento fuerte (the strong wind).

  • Alternatively, this site, which contains a recent human-specific segmental duplication of the CHRNA7 locus, may be a preferential site of breakage, which allowed the pericentric inversion to occur.

  • Probes were selected that flank known sites of genomic rearrangement based upon previous yeast artificial chromosome (YAC) and BAC/PAC mapping studies, together with the human sequence map available from the University of California at Santa Cruz (UCSC) Genome Browser [ 11 12 13 14 15 ] . Probes flanking the Prader-Willi/Angelman syndrome breakpoints, in addition to a characterized inv dup(15) rearrangement were selected to test the possibility that the pericentric inversion evolutionary breakpoint corresponded to a site of known human genomic instability (Figure 1).

  • Phylogenetic trees were generated using PAUP 4.0b7 [ 14 ] . In order to assess the relative contribution of chromosomal inversion and DNA sequence data we placed our analysis in a simultaneous analysis framework [ 15 16 17 ] . Bootstrap values were computed using PAUP 4.0b7.
