Example sentences for: meiosis

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

  • For geneticists and cell biologists who study meiosis, the existence of recombination hotspots offers a way to learn what other processes are associated with recombination.

  • Maturation/meiosis/mitosis-promoting factor (MPF) activity of recipient M II oocytes appears to be important for the reprogramming of nuclei of reconstructed embryos.

  • PCS of homologous chromosomes and sister chromatids prior to establishing proper kinetochore-spindle attachment during meiosis I increases the probabilities of both homologues going to the same pole and of equational division of sister chromatids during anaphase I. Upon normal fertilization, MII oocytes with an additional chromosome result in trisomic zygotes; whereas oocytes containing an extra chromatid would be expected to produce 50% trisomic zygotes due to random segregation during anaphase II.

  • In meiosis I (MI) homologous chromosomes segregate from their partners in a reductional division, and during meiosis II (MII) sister chromatids segregate from one-another in an equational division similar to mitosis.

  • MG-132 is a peptide aldehyde that inhibits ubiquitin-mediated proteolysis by binding to and inactivating 20S and 26S proteasomes [ 49 62 ] . Although 1-10 μM MG-132 inhibited first polar body extrusion in rat oocytes, its activity is reversible [ 42 ] . We conducted preliminary experiments to obtain a MG-132 dose range that would transiently perturb or inhibit OM during meiosis I while enabling oocytes to complete OM following washing out of the compound.
