Example sentences for: nondisjunction

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

  • The rec12-D15 (null) mutants are achiasmatic (Table 1) and, as anticipated, exhibit a high frequency of MI nondisjunction (Figures 3, 5, Table 2).

  • However, among rec12 mutant asci with four spores and an aberrant DNA distribution (Figure 3C, classes b, c, d, e), only 26% or less exhibited a pattern characteristic of simple MI nondisjunction (Figure 3C, classes c, e).

  • The value obtained in the rec12 mutants was 2.5-fold higher than the predicted random value, indicating that the segregation errors are not simply the consequence of random chromosome assortment (nondisjunction) occurring exclusively during one of the two meiotic divisions.

  • In the absence of Rec12 protein and crossovers, a backup distributive (achiasmatic) segregation system operates successfully on up to half of the chromosomes that would otherwise undergo MI nondisjunction.

  • First, Rec12 may be required for an "MI nondisjunction checkpoint" that delays meiotic cells in which proper MI disjunction has failed to occur.
