Example sentences for: mutagenic

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

  • Since the process of transfection is often mutagenic, pSV110 was transfected into Vero cells, mock-infected and rescued into bacteria to determine background frequency of mutation from the experimental process.

  • The sequences of all mutagenic oligonucleotides are available upon request.

  • Mutations can be introduced during replication by the viral proteins or also by the mutagenic processes of transfection and viral infection.

  • The Neo 3' splice site contains a potential branch point sequence, and the sequence (CAGG) across the intron-exon boundary is optimal according to the scanning model of 3' splice site selection [ 54 55 ] . The Neo site differs from the typical 3' splice site in that it lacks a polypyrimidine tract; however, this feature is often missing from alternative splice sites [ 56 ] . Both the A of the branch point and the intron-terminal AG dinucleotide are considered invariant; therefore, one may be able to enhance the mutagenic efficiency of U3Neo vectors by altering these nucleotides.

  • Oxoguanine has become the benchmark for oxidative DNA modifications; it is arguably the most important mutagenic lesion in DNA (mispairing with adenine during chromosomal replications causes GC → TA transversions) [ 24 ] . It is suggested that untoward oxidative stresses to DNA prompt cell-cycle delay, antiapoptotic, and repair responses.
