Example sentences for: sim

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

We used sim4 [ 53] and MUMmer [ 73] to realign these five scaffolds, and the sequence extending beyond the aligned portions of the Release 3 euchromatic sequence contigs was extracted with a 60-bp overlap and included in the WGS3 heterochromatic sequence.
We searched for new tRNA genes using the program tRNAscan-SE [ 32] and Sim4 alignments to known tRNAs: 290 are annotated in the euchromatin (Table 2).
To assess the accuracy of the chromosome arm assemblies we determined the location and orientation of the BAC-end sequences using a customized version of Sim4 [ 43]; we also checked that each gene present in the annotated Release 2 sequence was appropriately located in Release 3 using BLAST.
The outer (gray) panel displays computational evidence to support these annotations, such as gene predictions generated by programs such as GenScan [ 44] and Genie [ 45], and other biological data, such as ESTs aligned using the program Sim4 [ 2] and protein homologies revealed by BLASTX [ 1].
However, Haas et al . found est2genome and other alignment tools were, in general, not superior to Sim4 [ 24, 67].
