Example sentences for: retrotransposition

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

  • As inverted elements are found 8% of the time in 3' intact elements, 462 twice-inverted elements were predicted to occur if such events are permitted (that is, 8% of 8% of the time if the two inversions can occur independently more than once during the same retrotransposition event).

  • Another striking example of retrotransposition involves the D. littoralis Rh4 gene and illustrates the fact that functionally important genes can undergo dramatic changes in location and gene structure during genome evolution [ 29].

  • Not all interspersed duplicate genes are generated by retrotransposition.

  • With the exception of the retrotransposition events discussed below, the intron-exon structure of gene models is highly conserved as well: only one case of intron gain was observed in the D. littoralis Rh2 , as has been reported previously for Rh2 in the closely related species,

  • Full-length L1s are capable of autonomous retrotransposition.
