Example sentences for: polymorphic

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

A total of 96 foci were analyzed for LOH at several polymorphic markers in 18p11.
Genotyping with polymorphic di-, tri-, or tetranucleotide-repeat markers was performed by PCR according to the conditions used in the test PCRs above except that one of the primers was 32P-labeled with T4 polynucleotide kinase.
The hypothesis rests on the idea that skewing of X inactivation might lead to a deficiency of tolerance induction in the thymus, particularly with respect to polymorphic X-linked autoantigens.
First, defective tolerance from skewed X inactivation should only be directed at X-linked antigens that are polymorphic, and for which the individual is heterozygous.
3 and the fact the CHRNA7 duplication appeared polymorphic in the human population [ 17 ] . This hypothesis deserved consideration in this study, as the site of duplication of the CHRNA7 locus in the human genome may correspond to the pericentric inversion breakpoint, and the high sequence homology noted between the donor and duplicated CHRNA7 loci does not establish the human-specificity of the CHRNA7 duplication, as gene conversion may also maintain high sequence homology of duplicated segments [ 26 27 ] . Thus, we tested the chimpanzee genome by Southern genomic analysis for the presence of the CHRNA7 duplication which revealed this duplication is most likely human-specific and therefore did not contribute to the pericentric inversion in chimpanzee (Figure 5).
