Example sentences for: single-copy

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

  • Since the basic single-copy repertoire of dispersed aromatic-pathway genes shown in Figure 2for Synechocystis (Ssp) is representative of other cyanobacteria such as Synechococcus (Syn) and Prochlorococcus (Pmu) and is also present at dispersed extra-operonic loci of Anabaena and Nostoc , an obvious possibility would seem to be that the genes of the supraoperon originated by LGT in a common ancestor of Anabaena and Nostoc . If so, speciation was followed by different species-specific gene-insertion events.

  • These repeats are often part of the trans-silencer locus or paramutagenic locus or its target [ 10 14 15 16 17 ] . However, the repeat can sometimes be located at a considerable distance from the affected locus itself, as has recently been shown for the single-copy maize b1 gene [ 18 ] . Other than transcriptional gene silencing, paramutation is only weakly correlated with DNA methylation.

  • The problem of random transgene integration can be overcome by targeting transgenes to a specific genomic locus by homologous recombination in ES cells [ 2 3 4 ] . A method that allows the introduction of single copy transgenes into the X-linked hprt locus has been described previously by Bronson et al [ 2 ] . In this approach single-copy transgenes are introduced 5' of the hprt locus by homologous recombination in ES cells.

  • It contains tandemly repeated short sequences (satellite DNAs), middle repetitive elements (for example, transposable elements), and some single-copy sequences [ 4].

  • Sinorhizobium meliloti , for example, has three large, single-copy plasmids [ 43 ] , and the primary Mesorhizobium loti chromosome is linear.
