Example sentences for: orthologs

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

Figure 1shows a genome-COG matrix that reveals the phyletic (phylogenetic) patterns of the presence or absence of the orthologs across the spectrum of the sequenced genomes [ 18] for each of the 52 pairs of fusion-linked COGs containing cross-kingdom fusions.
The method for identifying probable orthologs is based on the genome-specific best hits (BeTs) rationale that underlies the construction of the COGs database [ 4, 5].
This suggests that parameters of the distributions of the similarity level between probable orthologs identified in this fashion could potentially serve as useful measures of the evolutionary distance between genomes.
Pairs of orthologs between C. trachomatis and C. muridarum
In contrast, the trees based on the distributions of the identity level of orthologs appear to be more meaningful phylogenetically as indicated by the recovery of established high-level phylogenetic groups of bacteria, such as Proteobacteria and Gram-positive bacteria.
