Sentence examples for monitor gene activity from inspiring English sources

CAGE has previously been used to define global transcription start site usage and monitor gene activity in mammals.

For instance, 'reporter genes' which are part of a gene therapy can be used to determine if transfection was successful and to monitor gene activity and distribution in the individual patient [13].
