Sentence examples for mutant frequencies are from inspiring English sources

This indicates that lacZ mutant frequencies are not correlated with a specific DNA repair defect and eventual tumor outcome, at least not in the experimental design presented here.

However, because fluctuation analyses are laborious and the present study comprised 238 P. aeruginosa isolates, we took advantage of the fact that mutation frequencies and mutant frequencies are proportional in sufficiently large cultures.

For example, without AZT when epistasis is highest, the relative mutant frequencies are around 10−8 to 10−9 and epistasis affect those frequencies up to 3-fold (Figure 4 and Table S3).

In this hidden Markov model, the observed mutant frequencies are obtained through binomial sampling from a population in which the mutant frequency evolves according to the Wright Fisher process.

Norman (1975) relaxed this assumption with a Gaussian diffusion approximation in which mutant frequencies are centered about their deterministic trajectory with asymptotically normal deviations attributable to random genetic drift.

Within the ∼60 kb strong hotspots, DSB-dependent mutant frequencies are related roughly to the log of the distance between the tet reporter and each I-site, with the exception of tet10, 12 kb from I-site D, which is located in the dif (replication-terminus-proximal) region.

Identically, using the lacI mutation detection system, the mutant frequencies were 6.4±3.1×10−5 and 5.8±2.0×10−5.

The study did not show any mutation or adduct induction in the exposed group compared to the control group: cII mutant frequencies were 11.0±4.5×10−5 and 11.0±4.8×10−5 in control and exposed lungs, respectively.

While some interactions compensate fitness losses, the effect on the relative mutant frequencies was small so that epistasis as a buffering mechanism for fitness losses might be rather inefficient.

Mutant frequencies were determined as the number of colonies on the selective plate divided by the number of colonies on the titer plate (times the dilution factor of 1,000).

The lacZ mutant frequencies were then calculated by determining the ratio of mutant pfu to total pfu.
