Example sentences for: supraoperon

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

  • The genes comprising the supraoperon of B. subtilis are aroG → aroB → aroH → trpAaBDCEbEa → hisH b → tyrA p → aroF . A hierarchy of internal promoters and terminators exists for differential control of the B. subtilis supraoperon.

  • 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.

  • A number of distinctive properties of the supraoperon gene block represent items of biological context (as discussed by Lawrence and Ochman [ 21]) that potentially could provide excellent tracking clues about the identity of the putative donor in LGT.

  • The additional TyrA (p) present only in Anabaena and Nostoc and located as the carboxy-terminal gene of the supraoperon exhibits identities of 39-43% with the TyrA (p) proteins of some enteric bacteria.

  • Among cyanobacteria, only Nostoc has homologs of these two Anabaena genes, although they are not inserted in the Nostoc supraoperon.
