Sentence examples for which is evolutionary from inspiring English sources

Ubiquitin is a small (8.5 kDa) protein, which is evolutionary conserved in eukaryotes.

The gene encoding GHSR, which is evolutionary highly conserved, is located on chromosome 3q26, a region previously showing linkage to measures of body composition [7].

To understand how the functions of neural bHLH genes have evolved among bilaterians, we have performed a detailed study of bHLH genes during nervous system development in the polychaete annelid, Platynereis dumerilii, an organism which is evolutionary distant from both Drosophila and vertebrates.

Heavy metal stress is handled by metallothioneins (MTs), the regulation of which is evolutionary conserved in insects and vertebrates and involves the binding of metal transcription factor 1 (MTF-1) to metal responsive elements (MREs) positioned in the promoter of MT genes.

We simply don't know which ones eventually led to Homo sapiens, and which were evolutionary dead ends.

The deep, dark environment where they are found is around deep sea hot springs where life teems with millions of shrimp and other animals, some of which are "evolutionary throwbacks, their bodies changed very little, such as sea lilies that date back 400 million years".

When we applied our method to a set of 74 Drosophila melanogaster microRNAs, searching 3′UTR sequences of a predefined set of fly mRNAs for target sites which were evolutionary conserved between D. melanogaster and Drosophila pseudoobscura, we found that many key developmental body patterning genes such as hairy and fushi-tarazu are likely to be translationally regulated by microRNAs.

However, members of this GO class belong predominantly to the defensin family, which are evolutionary conserved small antimicrobial peptides.

Phylogenetic analysis supports the hypothesis that X-tox proteins, which are evolutionary derived from lepidopteran defensins, represent a new family of proteins restricted to Lepidoptera.

We used data from Wall et al. [8] (available from the supplementary material for Drummond et al. [7]), which are evolutionary rates at synonymous and nonsynonymous sites calculated over four yeast genomes, providing an evolutionary measure of protein divergence.

Interestingly this included also mu PVs, which are evolutionary distant from alpha, beta and gamma PVs.
