Example sentences for: non-orthologous
How can you use “non-orthologous” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:
It should also be noted that some of the non-orthologous sequences represent putative arsC genes identified from ORF's, rather than confirmed arsenate reductases.
Sequence sets that fell in the tails of the K s distribution (K s > 0.35 for mouse-rat and K s > 1.0 for human-rodent) were removed before analysis to eliminate potentially non-orthologous protein sets.
That this displacement might have occurred by in situ insertion of a non-orthologous gene is suggested by the detection, on three separate occasions, of unusual remnants of pre-existing genes.
In addition to the triplet test, the distributions of K s between human and rodents and K s between mouse and rat was used to eliminate potentially non-orthologous sequence sets.
Regardless of the particular phylogenetic methods used, the arsC trees clearly show a number of non-orthologous arsC genes, assuming that the 16S rRNA tree reflects true phylogeny.
