Example sentences for: retrotransposition

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

  • To identify L1s in the human genome that might have retrotransposition potential, we identified L1s that were full-length and had intact coding regions.

  • Full-length L1s are capable of autonomous retrotransposition.

  • 2003) investigated the retrotransposition (since the existence of a human–mouse common ancestor) of one of the two autosomal copies of the CDYL gene to Y chromosome (forming CDY ). In the mouse, both Cdyl genes produce two distinct transcripts, one of which is expressed ubiquitously while the other is testis-specific.

  • In the ORF1 protein, residues critical for retrotransposition include the following conserved blocks of amino acids: REKG (235-238), ARR (residues 260-262), and YPAKLS (282-287) [ 14].

  • At least one novel gene, the CG2222 -like gene D. willistoni , is likely to have originated from a retrotransposition event as this gene lacks introns while its closest homolog, found on a different chromosome arm in the D. melanogaster genome, has two introns.
