Example sentences for: tss
How can you use “tss” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:
With a single EST we cannot be sure to have reached the true start site, even if it was generated by a method selecting for the cap site of the mRNA [ 17, 19]; with a cluster of ESTs within a small range, we can be more confident that we have defined the actual TSS.
Using the core promoter set to retrain the McPromoter TSS prediction tool
However, our set is eight times larger, containing the predicted TSS for one in seven Drosophila genes.
Because the 5' ends of ESTs derived from full-length cDNAs are expected to lie in a narrow window at the TSS, we required that the 5' ends of at least three ESTs fall within an 11-bp window of genomic sequence, and that the number of ESTs whose 5' ends fall within this window comprise at least 30% of the ESTs in the cluster.
With the help of a larger training set, we were able to significantly improve the performance of McPromoter, our computational TSS prediction tool.
