Example sentences for: pxo

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

  • In the present study, B. cereus and B. thuringiensis isolates that vary in AFLP-based genomic relatedness to B. anthracis were examined for the presence of DNA sequence similar to pXO2, to determine whether portions of this plasmid are conserved in closely related Bacillus isolates, and to determine whether the conservation of pXO2 sequences correlated with genomic relatedness established by AFLP comparisons [ 17 18 ] .

  • The pXO2 ORF sequences detected in B. thuringiensis 33679 and B. thuringiensis AWO6 were distributed across the entire plasmid sequence, except in the 25.

  • A dot-blot hybridization assay was performed using DNA from B. thuringiensis strain AWO6 as probe against PCR-amplified pXO2 ORF DNA applied to a nylon membrane.

  • The two isolates with the most sequence conservation with pXO2 ORFs, B. thuringiensis isolates 33679 and AWO6, are known to contain large plasmids [ 12 19 ] . Four ORFs with high sequence similarity to B. thuringiensis AWO6 plasmid pAW63 were detected [ 22 ] , and a mixed pXO2 ORF probe hybridized with a PFGE fragment similar in size to pAW63.

  • This method was chosen to detect sequences with potential similarity to pXO2 because it is rapid and the reaction products can be readily sequenced.
