Example sentences for: orthologs

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

This application of informatics data will certainly grow in importance as acquisition of additional single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) data becomes increasingly common and new paralogs and orthologs are added to the sequence database.
We show here a substantial acceleration of evolution in recently diverged paralogs compared to orthologs with the same level of synonymous sequence divergence.
In the few discrepant cases where no clear ortholog could be unambiguously identified (such as the four closely related members of the Rhodopsin gene family), we used the conserved microsyntenic gene orders maintained in these species to resolve orthologs (see below).
Pairs of orthologs between Helicobacter pylori 26695 and J99
Amino-acid sequence identity of 78-98% is an impressive figure, given that these two organisms are thought to have diverged 250 million years ago [ 16 ] . Although this value may be slightly higher than the true value, as uncertainties resulting from splicing boundaries led us to disregard the more variable amino-and carboxy-terminal extreme ends, the sequence identities for the Drosophila and Anopheles K +-channel orthologs over the core regions for K +-channel sequences are well above the mean values calculated by the other groups for orthologs between these species.
