Example sentences for: telomere
How can you use “telomere” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:
The position of this most-proximal TAS in vA is surprising, indicating that some vA MAC I or II chromosomes have as few as 3-5 base pairs between the telomere DNA and the transcription start site of the Common Region gene (Fig.
The telomere of chromosome arm 3R in Release 3 contains six copies of a 983-bp repeat similar to the previously described telomeric sequence in the TAS element; it extends the Release 2 sequence by approximately 6 kb.
Assuming that some promoter element is required and is not provided by the 3-5 bp 5' of the transcription start, perhaps the telomere repeats serve this purpose (see [ 64 ] ). It is also possible that a promoter element resides internal to this region: we have identified a highly conserved sequence block in the gene's first intron and suggested that it might serve as a promoter element [ 65 ] .
Subsequent BAC end-sequencing and BLAST searches of the Tomato Gene Index identified BAC 9302 and 52M1 insert DNA ends nearest the telomere as containing genomic nucleotide sequence for two previously identified MESTs - TC92082 and TC98260, respectively.
First, Rad26 and Rad3 are required to maintain proper telomere structure and telomere-associated gene silencing [ 43 ] . Second, chromatin-immunoprecipitation (ChIP) experiments demonstrate that over-expressed Rad3-HA exists at telomeres [ 44 ] . Third, Triton X-100 extraction, shown previously to remove non-chromatin bound proteins [ 42 ] , failed to disrupt the Rad26-GFP dots in the nuclei of cycling cells (see Figure 1).
