Sentence examples for between isochore structure and from inspiring English sources

From these observations, a correlation between isochore structure and body temperature pattern is assumed [ 8].

A relationship between isochore structure and stress response would have important implications for evolution and could go some way to explaining the differences between the integration and fixation rates seen for some repetitive elements (Costantini et al., 2012).

Genomic features associated with the GWRR include GC content, gene density, gene expression, epigenetic modifications, nucleosome formation, repetitive element composition, isochore structure, and patterns of genetic variation and differentiation within and between populations (Tortereau et al. 2012).

Fearnhead and Vasileiou (2009) developed a method for detecting isochores that coestimates isochore structure and identity under a model-based Bayesian approach.

We used a model-based Bayesian approach employing a Markov chain Monte Carlo method to simultaneously estimate isochore structure and identity (Fearnhead and Vasileiou 2009).

We tested whether two key features that correlate with isochore structure in mammals and birds, intron length and gene density, also existed in the Anolis genome despite its greater compositional homogeneity.

The phylogenetic distribution of compositional patchiness within vertebrates has been traditionally assessed by ultracentrifugation of bulk DNA [ 11, 13, 16], uncovering a clear isochore structure in mammals and birds [ 6, 10] and also in some reptiles [ 16].

This pattern indicates that Anolis has a compositionally more homogeneous genome than do human, chicken, and frog, which was already known to possess a greatly reduced GC-rich isochore structure compared with mammals and birds (Costantini et al. 2009).

Genomic features that have been shown to correlate with recombination rate include GC content, gene density, gene expression, epigenetic modifications, nucleosome formation, repetitive element composition, isochore structure, but also patterns of genetic variation and differentiation within and between populations.

Thus, within the species complex, only the Lmb genome had an isochore structure alternating large AT-rich and GC-equilibrated regions.

Although sequence comparisons between the recently sequenced turtle genomes and those of other vertebrates revealed a less prominent GC-rich isochore structure in turtles than in mammals and birds (Shaffer et al. 2013), we know less about the chromosomal rearrangements that have accrued during chelonian evolution.
