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

By comparing the gene neighborhoods of the SSAPs, we show that the predicted operons that include the SSAP genes evolve according to the "LEGO" principle.
The genes of such specialized operons may diverge considerably to meet the demands of a novel functional role.
This suggests that evolution of gene fusions often, if not always, passes through an intermediate stage of juxtaposed and co-regulated, but still distinct, genes within known or predicted operons.
This loss also extends to the disruption of operons, in some cases wiping them out completely [ 9].
In fact, the organization of genes into operons, complex regulons [ 11 ] , or pathogenicity islands [ 12 ] suggests that related functions usually share physical proximity.
