The phrase "a unique locus in" is correct and usable in written English.
It can be used to describe a specific and distinctive location or position within a broader context, often in academic or formal writing.
Example: "The research identified a unique locus in the genetic makeup of the population that contributes to their resilience against disease."
Alternatives: "a distinct point in" or "a singular location within".
Sequence adjacent to captured Alu elements mapped to a unique locus in the human genome, regardless of the species to which the trace entry was derived (Figure 1B).
Alternatively, Tabby could be a unique locus in cats.
Generally, >18 bp are required to specify a unique locus in the human genome.
Importantly, 23 new miRNAs mostly each derived from a unique locus in rice genome were identified.
In 355 cases, SNPs were given a unique locus in Illumina's annotation but not by this mapping procedure; in 74 cases, the situation was vice versa (Table 3).
This study also identified a unique locus in a putative rps3 intron / intergenic region of the mitochondrial genome that is an attractive target for a clinical genotyping assay (Figs. 1c and 2).
Putative locus with single hit was defined as a unique locus for use in map construction.
Sequences were considered human contamination if they were >98% identical to human sequence and mapped to a single, unique locus in the human genome (NCBI Build 37.1).
Assembly of zinc finger DNA-binding domain to a DNA-cleavage domain enables the enzyme machinery to target unique locus in the genome and invoke endogenous DNA repair mechanisms.
Paradoxically, the chl- fus gene was transposed into a point of DNA instability and heretofore it continues to occupy the same and unique locus in the plant genome, judging by the high conserved microsynteny.
In these cases WGA nucleotide copy errors can be discriminated from true base variants in the cell, because no heterozygous base variants are expected for unique loci in a haploid cell, offering interesting routes to profiling polar bodies.
