Example sentences for: ortholog

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

  • 3 and its ortholog in Drosophila (as opposed to an f2 value of 0.69 for Anopheles Kv1 vs Drosophila Kv1, 0.73 for Anopheles Kv2 vs Drosophila Kv2, or 0.70 for Anopheles Kv4 vs Drosophila Kv4) suggests these two genes diverged longer ago than would be predicted by the amino-acid identity alone, and that selective pressure has prevented the two sequences from diverging; homoplasy may explain their high amino-acid identity and low third-position (f2) identity.

  • NPM3 has the same exon structure as the mouse ortholog and is located approximately 5.5 kb upstream of FGF8, in the same transcriptional orientation (Figure 1B).

  • Mutations in the C. elegans ortholog Cul1 lead to increased cell number [ 9 ] showing that in this organism a different aspect of cell cycle regulation is controlled in a Cul1 dependent fashion.

  • The sequence with the top orthology bootstrap value is the one that is most likely to be the true ortholog of the query.
