How can you use “metazoan” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:
For example, even with structural constraints imposed by the genetic code to guide algorithm design, the identification of all protein-coding genes in a metazoan genome remains an unsolved computational problem.
Although great progress has been made towards understanding the protein-coding component of eukaryotic genome sequences [ 54, 55, 56, 57], comprehensive genome annotation is far from complete in any metazoan.
These comparisons allow an assessment of how well a WGS approach works on a 180 Mb metazoan genome.
The most parsimonious explanation to be drawn from candidates with no significant matches to any metazoan genes is that they arose by horizontal gene transfer from a non-metazoan pool, as opposed to multiple independent gene losses in the metazoan lineages.
Extensive BLAST and PSI-BLAST searches of the public databases failed to recover any sequences with significant similarity to the Runt domain from non-metazoan organisms with completed or nearly completed genomes, suggesting that Runx genes may be a metazoan invention.
