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

A diagnostic PCR assay was developed for the L91, E82, and C73 loci to unambiguously identify F2 segregants containing a trans-silenced L91 or E82 target locus but lacking the C73 silencer locus (Fig.
Trans-silenced L91' and E82' plants that lacked the C73 silencer locus ('prime'-label) were crossed in pairwise combinations with naive E82 and L91 plants.
Note that PTGS is often homozygosity-dependent [ 29 ] . The trans-silencing of the PTGS loci L91 or E82 by the C73 silencer locus is most easily apparent by the loss of the typical cop1- like cosuppressionphenotype (Fig.
These include 1) the strength of the 3' and 5' splice sites, which can be calculated using the consensus values that were determined by Shapiro and Senepathy [ 5 ] or by the Splice Site Prediction program by Neural Networks (SSPNN, http://www.fruitfly.org/seq_tools/splice.html) which takes more known sequences into account, 2) the branch point sequences and 3) certain sequences such as exonic splicing enhancers (ESE) that can activate the use of a weak 3' splice site or elements such as exonic splicing silencer elements (ESS) that inhibit splicing [ 1 ] . In addition to these cis -acting elements, exon length [ 6 ] and secondary structure have also been mentioned to play a role in splicing [ 7 ] .
In our transgene-based system, the silencer loci GFP-COP1 C73 and C97 underwent an apparently spontaneous transition in their silencing behavior between the T2 and T3 generations (Fig.
