How can you use “oric” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:
First, the putative oriC region of M. paratuberculosis was amplified, sequenced and compared with M. avium and other bacteria.
While these sequencing efforts have revealed a conserved gene order in the oriC of Gram-positive bacteria [ 11 ] , the nucleotide and amino acid identity between M. paratuberculosis and M. avium in this region is much stronger when compared to other mycobacteria and other Gram-positive bacteria (see Table 2).
The M. smegmatis coding sequence, gnd , has similarity to the 6-phophogluconate dehydrogenase genes in E. coli , but the mycobacterial protein is predicted to be about 200 amino acids shorter than the E. coli homolog . The length of non-coding intergenic regions between rpmH - dnaA and dnaA - dnaN is well conserved among the bacteria shown in figure 2. In many bacteria where a functional oriC has been identified, this gene order is conserved and oriC is adjacent to the dnaA gene [ 9 10 19 ] .
The sequence immediately flanking the dnaA gene is considered the origin of chromosomal replication, or oriC region [ 9 10 ] . This region contains several genes that encode proteins required for basic cellular functions, including the protein subunit of RNase P (RnpA), ribosomal protein L34 (RpmH), the replication initiator protein (DnaA), the beta subunit of DNA polymerase III (DnaN), the recombination repair protein RecF, and the DNA gyrase proteins GyrA and GyrB.
The oriC of Gram-positive bacteria typically contains 10 - 30 of these DnaA boxes, often found in non-coding regions flanking the dnaA gene.
