homologue - use in sentences

Preposition: of

  • gene: Ms Collins has cloned eucalyptus homologues of genes that control flower induction in Arabidopsis.
  • protein: From bacterial to human models The majority of membrane protein structures are of bacterial homologues of membrane proteins.
  • cycloidea: We have identified homologues of the gene CYCLOIDEA that has been shown to be involved in setting floral symmetry in snapdragon flowers.

Converse of object

  • encode: Aeromonas salmonicida possesses two genes encoding homologues of the major outer membrane protein, OmpA.
  • identify: We have identified homologues of the gene CYCLOIDEA that has been shown to be involved in setting floral symmetry in snapdragon flowers.
  • have: Conversely, many human genes have a clear homologue in Drosophila.
  • contain: This means that there is high confidence in the representative list containing no homologues.
  • clon: Ms Collins has cloned eucalyptus homologues of genes that control flower induction in Arabidopsis.
  • recognize: FUGUE is a program for recognizing distant homologues by sequence-structure comparison.

Adjective modifier

  • mammalian: This expression pattern in adults is distinct from any of the putative mammalian homologues.
  • human: If human homologues of the genes that we find in the worm play a similar role in signaling, they are candidate cancer genes.
  • close: PIP starts by looking for close homologues to the protein you enter into the query form.
  • bacterial: From bacterial to human models The majority of membrane protein structures are of bacterial homologues of membrane proteins.
  • distant: The latter are rather more distant homologues of KcsA.
  • putative: This expression pattern in adults is distinct from any of the putative mammalian homologues.

Noun used with modifier

  • non-peptidase: This gives an indication of whether a novel sequence is that of an active peptidase or a non-peptidase homologue.
  • mouse: Below we have a quick look at the mouse homologue of our human PITX2 gene.
  • sequence: For better result, use as many sequence homologues as possible.
  • peptidase: This shows whether we currently regard this as an ' active ' , ' putative ' or ' inactive ' peptidase homologue.
  • protein: An additional important nuclear ERK substrate is Myc, another transcription factor and oncogenic protein homologue, which will be discussed below.
