Sentence examples for position or locus from inspiring English sources
We assume, as in previous work (Hajirasouliha et al., 2014; Jiao et al., 2014; Malikic et al., 2015), that mutations satisfy the infinite sites assumption, which states that a mutation occurs at a single genomic position, or locus, at most once during the clonal evolution of the tumor.
BioMart (http://www.biomart.org/) and DAVID 6.7 were used to detect potential genes located 0.5 Mb upstream and downstream of the SNP position or the locus (the total region is 1 Mb).
To identify the genetic map position of the locus or loci controlling antibody levels, DNAs from 30 high-titer and 30 low-titer F2 mice were analyzed.
If a QTL position had been narrowed down to the position of a certain BAC/PAC or gene locus, the physical position of the QTL was placed between the start and end of the corresponding BAC/PAC or locus.
By aligning the expression patterns with an evolutionary tree based on gene sequence similarity (Fig. 2B) or with position along the locus (see Additional file 1), it was clear that there were no obvious patterns.
Where an AAT gene was found in a corresponding position, the locus was again given the same specification.
A QTL is the most likely position (= locus) on the genome that is associated with genetic differences for a (complex) phenotypic trait (Kas et al., 2009; Hart & Ruvolo, 2012; Hessel et al., 2012).
In some cases insufficient information is available to assign the correct order or positioning of loci, while data errors can introduce distortions in the maps.
