Example sentences for: prochlorococcus
How can you use “prochlorococcus” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:
For all of the operonic Anabaena/Nostoc Trp-pathway proteins used as queries, homolog sequences from other cyanobacteria ( Synechocystis, Synechococcus, Prochlorococcus ) were the remaining top hits returned in the BLAST queue.
In each case Prochlorococcus marinus and Synechococcus species are the outlying sequence group, with the other cyanobacterial sequences ( Nostoc punctiforme and Anabaena species) being closer to the higher plant sequences from A. thaliana and corn ( Zea mays ). The order of branching shown is supported by very high bootstrap values.
Prochlorococcus marinus ), Streptomyces coelicolor, and Thermomonospora fusca.
Since the basic single-copy repertoire of dispersed aromatic-pathway genes shown in Figure 2for Synechocystis (Ssp) is representative of other cyanobacteria such as Synechococcus (Syn) and Prochlorococcus (Pmu) and is also present at dispersed extra-operonic loci of Anabaena and Nostoc , an obvious possibility would seem to be that the genes of the supraoperon originated by LGT in a common ancestor of Anabaena and Nostoc . If so, speciation was followed by different species-specific gene-insertion events.
As BLAST hits must be considered imperfect indicators of nearest-neighbor homologs [ 38], the conclusion that the operonic trp -pathway genes are of cyanobacterial lineage origin was confirmed more rigorously by examination of extensive trees (available upon request) constructed for each trp protein of Anabaena and Nostoc . For the Trp-pathway proteins, all the cyanobacterial proteins clustered together, regardless of whether they were Anabaena or Nostoc paralogs or whether they were the singly represented proteins of Synechocystis, Synechococcus , or Prochlorococcus . The same result was obtained for AroA Iβ protein trees.
