Example sentences for: phages

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

  • The eukaryotic RDRP is part of a large ensemble of functionally linked proteins, which include the Dicer helicase-nuclease, PIWI family proteins, the Hen-2/Corymbosa-like RNA methylase, AlkB-related RNA demethylases, and Lin28-like RNA-binding proteins [ 1 45 46 ] . Since no closely related homologs of any of these proteins are encoded in the genomes of the phages that encode YRH proteins, the latter are unlikely to function in a biological context similar to that of the eukaryotic RDRPs.

  • In the following results, the genes from these two last classes will appear in the phages and IS classes rather that in the LTG class.

  • The cross reactive phages from the eluted phage were then subtracted by panning sequentially against human TNFR1, TNFα and TNFβ as a way to obtain peptides specific to the original target.

  • This reduction is due to functions being experimentally determined (77 CDSs), assignment of putative functions (367 CDSs), phenotype-associated functions (14 CDSs), and genes identified as belonging to phages (138 CDSs).

  • Interestingly, phages have been shown to carry ORFs named 'morons' (because they add more DNA to the phage genome), which often have unknown functions, but are thought to occasionally confer benefit to the host when the prophage is integrated in its genome [ 22 ] . These genes undergo high mutation and nonhomologous recombination rates, and often display high A+T-content, even in comparison to the phage itself [ 22 23 ] . Most LTGs fit this description and may therefore have been introduced into the genome by phages.
