Example sentences for: transposon

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

Another potential improvement to the process would be to use bacterial expression to screen for transposon insertions that produce a fluorescent protein.
Direct genomic sequencing of the sagA/pel ::Tn 917 insertion junction in these kidney-recovered β-hemolysis positive variants established that the transposon was present in the genome in exactly the same location as the parental β-hemolytic negative sagA/pel mutant.
The recombinant Tn 5 transposase binds these ME sequences and, in the presence of Mg 2+, catalyzes the random insertion of the transposon into target DNA in a complex process that involves generating a 9 base pair staggered nick in the target.
This staggered nick is subsequently repaired to produce a 9 base pair duplication of the target sequence that flanks the inserted transposon.
Mutant bacteria with a transposon insertion in prfA (DP-L1075) [ 33] adhere to the host-cell surface, and induce their own uptake into a phagocytic vacuole, presumably through low-level expression of the internalins, but cannot escape from the phagocytic vacuole into the cytoplasm.
