The phrase "a subset of dna" is correct and usable in written English.
It can be used when discussing specific portions or segments of DNA that belong to a larger set or category.
Example: "Researchers have identified a subset of DNA that is linked to increased resistance to certain diseases."
Alternatives: "a portion of DNA" or "a segment of DNA".
A subset of DNA extracts that were positive for Bsal on qPCR were further analysed using standard PCR with the STerF and STerR primers to target the ITS1 5.8S-ITS2 ITS1 5.8S-ITS2Bsal 5.8 S regionene2.
First, we describe the combination of two-photon excitation with fluorescence lifetime imaging microscopy (FLIM) to map the nuclear docking of the anticancer drug topotecan (TPT) at a subset of DNA sites in nuclear structures of live breast tumor cells.
The endonuclease ARTEMIS, which is encoded by the DCLRE1C gene, is a component of the nonhomologous end-joining pathway and participates in hairpin opening during the V(D J recombination process and repair of a subset of DNA double-strand breaks.
FAFLP is a highly discriminatory and reproducible genotyping method based on the selective amplification of a subset of DNA fragments generated by restriction enzyme digestion [64] [66].
We identify for the first time mutations in NKD1 - one of two human nkd homologs - in a subset of DNA mismatch repair-deficient colorectal tumors that are not known to harbor mutations in other Wnt-pathway genes.
Our data raise the hypothesis that specific NKD1 mutations promote Wnt-dependent tumorigenesis in a subset of DNA mismatch-repair-deficient colorectal adenocarcinomas and possibly other Wnt-signal driven human cancers.
We show that nucleosomes occupy DNA targets for a subset of DNA-binding proteins, including CCCTC-binding factor (CTCF) and pluripotency factors.
p73 is upregulated in response to a subset of DNA-damaging agents, including DOXO, CDDP, camptothecin and etoposide [ 38].
Recent works suggest that some plant and human miRNA families are derived from a subset of DNA-type transposable elements (TEs) called miniature inverted-repeat transposable elements (MITEs; [ 23, 24]).
p73, similar to p53, is upregulated in response to a subset of DNA-damaging agents including cisplatin, inducing expression of apoptosis regulated genes including Bax, Bim, Noxa, and Puma (Moll & Slade, 2004; Vilgelm et al, 2008; Lunghi et al, 2009; Zawacka-Pankau et al, 2010).

DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.7554/eLife.07735.017 In some cases, DNA damage has been shown to result in changes in the oxidative state of the nucleus, and it has been recently shown that oxidative stress can activate a subset of DNA-repair signaling cascades independently of DNA damage (Guo et al., 2010; Ditch and Paull, 2012).
