Words similar to pseudogenes
Example sentences for: pseudogenes
How can you use “pseudogenes” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:
We empirically determined cut-off scores for these comparisons that lead to rejection of most independently verified pseudogenes and simulated poor-quality sequences, while retaining all known EPK genes and verifiable novel EPK sequences (data not shown).
The TrpEb_1 products of these probable pseudogenes have elongated branches (highlighted yellow) on the protein tree shown in Figure 2.
After removal of probable pseudogenes and sequencing artifacts (see below), the final EPK collection contained sequences representing 510 distinct putative human loci, 12 of which are thought to encode proteins that contain two separate EPK domains.
Comparison of the levels of synonymous (amino-acid preserving) and non-synonymous (amino-acid altering) nucleotide mismatches, between hits containing unverifiable stop codons or frameshift mutations and the most similar registered EPK, was used to identify additional probable pseudogenes and sequencing artifacts.
Some genes deleted within regions of synteny persist as partially degraded sequences that range from pseudogenes having clear homology with the E. coli ortholog [ 8], to much shortened sequences with no recognizable sequence homology.
