Words similar to over-representation
Example sentences for: over-representation
How can you use “over-representation” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:
Abscisic acid response elements (ABREs) are important during the plant's response to abiotic stresses such as dehydration, salinity and cold, all of which are ABA-mediated [ 82 83 ] . There is evidence that ROS are involved in ABA signaling [ 84 ] . The enrichment of the ABRE motif in the promoter sequences of the genes in the stress cDNA collection may reflect crosstalk among stress signaling pathways mediated by common second messengers, such as H 2 O 2 . The over-representation of the SA-inducible element in the promoter sequences of the genes in the stress cDNA collection, especially those in the SA library, further validates the enrichment of the stressor-specific genes using the SSH technique and suggests that these genes may be regulated by the changes in the levels of SA that occurs in stress responses [ 85 ] .
Our previous studies of the VH gene repertoire in RA SM [ 13] and studies using a hybridoma approach [ 8] revealed an over-representation of VH4 and a biased set of represented VH4 genes.
Compared with the germline representation [ 5], an over-representation of VH5 and an under-representation of VH4 genes were remarkable.
A plausible reason is that SA and ethylene act antagonistically to each other [ 5 ] . The over-representation of the SA-inducible genes in the collection may be correlated with the reduced representation of the ethylene-responsive genes in the stress cDNA collection.
The involvement in grain filling of the novel set (C) of genes is supported by the over-representation of the grain filling cis -element.
