Example sentences for: mutants

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

  • Confirmatory studies with other potential dominant-negative mutants, such as those bearing substitutions at the position cognate to Ras S17, were not possible with Rab24, because such mutants remained in the GTP state.

  • Our failure to observe nuclear accumulation of Rpl11b in tab3 and TAB5-TAB7 mutants suggests that these tab genes bypassed cdc15Δ by a distinct mechanism.

  • fz, dsh and stan mutants we noted that lateral initiation was no longer restricted to the distal region of central core cells.

  • To investigate NPC structure more closely in npa1-1 and npa2-1 mutants, logarithmically growing cultures were shifted to the non-permissive temperature and assayed for GFP-Nup localization by direct fluorescence microscopy at various times after the shift.

  • Our collective ignorance of the totality of non-coding RNA genes was laid bare by recent work on microRNAs (miRNAs), an abundant family of 21-22 nucleotide non-coding RNAs [ 2 3 ] . The founding members of this family, lin-4 and let-7, were identified through forward analysis of extant Caenorhabditis elegans mutants [ 4 5 ] . Both of these RNAs are post-transcriptional regulators of developmental timing that function by binding to the 3' untranslated regions (3' UTRs) of target genes [ 5 6 7 8 ] . Although they were long regarded as genetic curiosities possibly specific to nematodes, let-7 was subsequently found to be broadly conserved across bilaterian evolution [ 9 ] and miRNA genes are now recognized as a pervasive and widespread feature of animal and plant genomes [ 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 ] .
