Sentence examples for be under stronger selective from inspiring English sources
This observation is in line with the fact that co-evolving proteins, if interacting physically, may be under stronger selective pressure to conserve.
Therefore, single copy genes might be under stronger selective constraints [ 11].
They would be under stronger selective pressure to consent to a miRNA cluster's regulation.
Genes with more distinct functions may be expected to be under stronger selective constraint.
Previous studies have reported that genes targeted by more miRNAs tend to be under stronger selective constraints [ 24- 26].
We hypothesized that metabolic genes would also be under stronger selective constraint than the average non-metabolic gene, so we performed three statistical tests of this hypothesis.
These genes are supposed to be under strong selective pressure (purifying selection) due to their important role in the timely removal of glutamate at the synapse.
In addition, the greater distance of LCRs to exons is also expected to result from relaxation of selection as previous studies reported sequences near introns to be under strong selective constraints due to the presence of splicing regulatory elements and to the deleterious effects of the disruption of these elements (Pagani et al. 2005; Parmley et al. 2006; Warnecke and Hurst 2007).
Of these 35 genes, 15 were predicted to have lost the function of the encoded proteins and seven of the latter were found to be under strong selective pressure.
Transmission success is crucial to the parasite and gametocyte production has been repeatedly shown to be under strong selective pressure [32], thus making this stage of the lifecycle propitious for intervention.
