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.
