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

Encouraged by the success with GFP, we next looked at Δpre-M/E replicons with HIV-1 env material cloned into the position of the deleted pre-M and E genes.
Demonstration of long term protein expression by a gp120-expressing replicon alone, of course, does not demonstrate that the chimeric dengue replicons constitute an effective vaccine.
However, when we harvested cultures earlier, at 36 hours post transfection with Δpre-M/E-gp160, intact, fluorescing cells were readily found, though the morphology still appeared atypical compared to either that of cultures transfected with wild type dengue virus and dengue replicons [ 12 ] or the Δpre-M/E-gp120 replicon (see Figure 6).
Our finding that dengue virus replicons can express heterologous genes, including HIV envelop, for prolonged periods of time in cell culture without selection represents a significant step in developing a new vector system potentially capable of delivering immunogens to any host in whose cells the dengue replicons can replicate.
Although we knew from previous experiments [ 12 ] that dengue replicons could survive for at least 7 days in culture, the limited durability of cells transfected with gp160-expressing replicons raised the question of whether or not cells transfected with Δpre-M/E-gp120 replicons could survive for similarly long times in culture.
