COLLOCATIONS FROM CORPUS
■ ADJECTIVE
human
▪
There might also be mistaken matches with the many duplicated regions of the human genome .
▪
In the late 1980s, the United States embarked on a major undertaking: the human genome project.
▪
The human genome bears witness to this process, too.
▪
The human genome project opens up the possibility of eliminating certain inherited, genetic diseases.
▪
The publication of the research may puzzle those who thought that the race to the human genome was over last June.
▪
Once the entire human genome has been mapped and sequenced it will become amenable to manipulation.
▪
Billions of dollars will have been poured into the human genome project.
mitochondrial
▪
This drosophila strain is an interesting model to study the consequence of this type of mitochondrial genome deletion.
▪
These concentrations were compared with levels measured in mitochondria of the wild-type strain, bearing 100% intact mitochondrial genomes .
▪
Hence, there was an increase in the number of mitochondrial genomes per nuclear genome in the mutant strain.
▪
Wild type and deleted mitochondrial genome maps.
■ NOUN
mouse
▪
The mouse genome is extremely similar to ours, differing by as few as 200 to 300 genes.
▪
At the two-cell stage the mouse genome is clearly active.
EXAMPLES FROM CORPUS
▪
Billions of dollars will have been poured into the human genome project.
▪
For the last 20 years researchers have been able to calculate genome sizes and mutation rates.
▪
Hubbard agrees that it ought to be possible to overlay the mouse on the human genome .
▪
On other occasions, the genome seems to rearrange itself for its own ends.
▪
Phenomena such as exon shuffling imply that genomes are constantly being rearranged, and are not mere static repositories of information.
▪
The first step in genome expression, i.e. transcription, was studied in order to test these hypotheses.
▪
This drosophila strain is an interesting model to study the consequence of this type of mitochondrial genome deletion.
▪
This sequence of events may represent a model for the dispersal of gene family members throughout the genome .
