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

Changes to the annotations were based largely on approximately 6,000 new 3' ESTs sequenced by the BDGP, which increased the number of genes with 3' UTRs and allowed further refinement in gene structures.
The coordinates, comments, and sub-features of the annotations (such as UTRs, exons, and so on) can be downloaded in a number of formats, including XML and GFF.
In the absence of major differences in coding sequence, this strongly suggests rapid evolution of species-specific 5' and 3'-untranslated regions (UTRs), which are longer in the human gene.
It was recently demonstrated that elements within a 217 nucleotide sequence from the 5'-UTR of the mouse p27 Kip1mRNA is able to mediate cap-independent translation of a reporter gene in NIH3T3 and D6P2T cells [ 28 ] . There is a high level of sequence homology between the mouse and human 5'-UTRs and the major transcriptional start site is also conserved [ 29 ] . Therefore it is likely the 5'-UTR of the human p27 Kip1message is also able to mediate cap-independent translation initiation.
In Drosophila overlapping untranslated regions (UTRs) are observed frequently between adjacent transcripts, but this does not necessarily indicate that the transcripts are for the same gene, so Apollo offers the option to make these new transcripts into distinct overlapping genes.
