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

However, analyses in which synteny and phylogenetic information were also considered suggest that codon bias and G+C content are poor indicators of HGT [ 45 ] . A role for 'amelioration', whereby structural characteristics of the foreign gene are eventually homogenized to resemble those of the recipient species, has been assumed, but the rate was postulated to be the same as the rate of random, forward mutation [ 42 ] . In addition to alterations in codon usage (as reflected in G+C content), for a bacterial gene to function efficiently in a nematode presumably requires acquisition of regulatory elements (including a promoter) and structural elements (including a poly(A) tail and, optionally, a trans -spliced leader).
This presents new opportunities to detect synteny groups and facilitates the comparison of splicing patterns and orthologous sequences between these two organisms.
Some genes deleted within regions of synteny persist as partially degraded sequences that range from pseudogenes having clear homology with the E. coli ortholog [ 8], to much shortened sequences with no recognizable sequence homology.
A conserved segment between HSA2, RNO6, and MMU17 on RNO6q11-q16 has been demonstrated by Zoo-FISH analysis and gene mapping data, confirming this synteny [ 30 31 32 ] .
Our results show that these subspecies not only have a conserved gene order surrounding the origin of chromosomal replication, but also have a high synteny and nucleotide identity throughout both genomes.
