Example sentences for: retroelements

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

  • p1 and p2 arose following a local gene duplication and insertion of multiple retroelements between p1 and p2.

  • It has been hypothesized that the rate of turnover of retroelements may be higher in small genomes as a result of the presence of less effective epigenetic silencing mechanisms [ 10].

  • Although Osr30 is the largest family of LTR retroelements in the genome, it has not been previously named.

  • Because it searches for retroelements on the basis of their generic structure, LTR_STRUC eliminates much of the bias inherent in BLAST searches based on a known retroelement query.

  • Sequence retrieval was initiated via BLASTN searches (default parameters- [ 37 ] ) against the BDGP http://www.fruitfly.organd GenBank http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.govdatabases using LTRs from previously identified Drosophila retroelements as queries [ 15 ] . Results with E-values < e -10were annotated on the corresponding clone, whereupon visual inspection of several annotations confirmed the presence of retroelements proximal to known genes.
