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

The plot of the ratio of synonymous/nonsynonymous substitutions (dS/dN) identified five regions where the synonymous substitution rate exceeds the nonsynonymous substitution rate (dS / dN > 1), suggesting that homology in these areas was driven by the need for AA conservation (Figure 2b).
In all genomes analyzed, the nonsynonymous substitution rate was significantly lower than the synonymous substitution rate, such that K n /K s << 1 (Figure 1a,band Table 1), in agreement with the recent genome-wide study of paralogs [ 21].
Using a codon-based alignment of the NA sequences in the high homology group, we analyzed the occurrence of synonymous and nonsynonymous substitutions over the entire coding region.
In particular, rates of nonsynonymous substitution per site (resulting in an amino acid change; d N ) often greatly exceed those of synonymous substitution per site (silent change; d S ), as expected if most mutations are fixed because they increase fitness (Figure 1).
There was also a correlation between the regions of homology to Ps-moeZ and the areas where synonymous substitutions exceeded nonsynonymous substitutions (Figure 2aand 2b).
