Example sentences for: spacer

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

For both 12- and 23-RSS, the positions exhibiting the strongest cooperative influence lie in the nonamer-proximal half of the spacer and in the heptamer and nonamer positions adjacent to the spacer (Figure 2).
Given the rapid rate of DNA loss for unconstrained sequences in Drosophila [ 48, 49], it is difficult to understand the mere existence of spacer intervals, as well as their conservation of length, without invoking some form of functional constraint acting on these sequences.
Each repeat contains five histone genes: Histone H1 (His1), Histone H3 (His3), Histone H4 (His4), Histone H2A (His2A) and Histone H2B (His2B) . Two predominant forms of the repeat, 4.8 and 5.0 kb, have been previously described and differ primarily in the size of the spacer DNA between His1 and His3 . The variants are not interspersed with one another; but form segregated clusters.
Therefore, silencing spreading in the wild-type “spacer” in the sandwich grafts could not be assisted by an endogenous sequence.
The patterns of nucleotide diversity at individual positions are similar for both 12- and 23-RSS: the initial CAC of the heptamer is invariant, the remaining four positions of the heptamer are moderately diverse, the spacer is highly diverse, and the A tract of the nonamer (positions 5 through 7) is better conserved than the other nonamer positions (Figure 1a).
