Sentence examples for evolutionary interval from inspiring English sources

The reasons for this modest statistical support include the large number of taxa involved, the small number of phylogenetic characters, the occurrence of lineage specific Hox gene duplications, and the (likely) short evolutionary interval between the initial Hox-ParaHox radiation and the cnidarian-bilaterian divergence.

A PAM matrix is derived from the inferred substitutions along a phylogenetic tree relating homologous sequences, by estimating the probability that any given amino acid residue in a protein will be replaced by any other residue after a pre-specified evolutionary interval.

Gray box indicates evolutionary interval in which SRE specificity evolved (McKeown et al., 2014 ).

The simulation is then extended to an evolutionary interval of 10 nucleotide substitutions expected per nucleotide location for neutral substitutions.

When just three of the 38 amino acid replacements that occurred during the evolutionary interval between AncSR1 and AncSR2 were introduced into AncSR1, they fully recapitulated the shift in half-site preference from ERE to SREs.

To compare the physiological roles of Gcn5 over a large evolutionary interval, we chose to compare the phenotype of gcn5Δ mutants in S. cerevisiae and its distant budding yeast relative S. kluyveri, using a range of environmental stress conditions, including several conditions where Gcn5 dependence has previously been demonstrated in S. pombe [ 22].

Suffice it to point out that the much more precise recent study of statistical phylogenetic trees based on amino acid sequences show that the rate of evolutionary change in cytochrome c is not constant either in a single line of descent during different evolutionary intervals, or in separate lines of descent in the same evolutionary interval… (Margoliash et al. 1976, pp. 146 147).

This rate can be used as a rough "molecular clock" to estimate evolutionary intervals between isolates [3], [8].

Over long evolutionary intervals, the resulting "wave" of covarions encompasses all or most of the protein sequence.

Coherent evolution of FUEs over extended evolutionary intervals is a crucial aspect of the history of life but a "species" or "organismal" tree is not a fundamental concept.

The rates of evolution of protein-coding genes span a range of three to four orders of magnitude but each gene has a characteristic rate that remains relatively constant over long evolutionary intervals (Zuckerkandl and Pauling 1965).
