(a.) Pertaining to homology; having a structural affinity proceeding from, or base upon, that kind of relation termed homology.
Example Sentences:

(6) The specified region of the inner E2 core domain was highly homologous to the region of the E2 subunit of pyruvate dehydrogenase and alpha-ketoglutarate dehydrogenase.
(7) This novel mechanism of receptor regulation, named transmodulation, should be distinguished from the reduction in total receptor number caused by the homologous ligand (downregulation) and from the change in affinity produced by the binding of agonists or antagonists to the same receptor site.
(8) This unusual insertion could affect the interaction of cat CD4 with class II molecules, or with FIV, a feline homolog of HIV.
(9) On the basis of primary sequence homology with other known Pseudomonas lipases, a number of putative active site residues located in conserved areas were found.
(10) Extensive sequence homologies and other genetic features are shared with the related oncogenic virus, human papillomavirus type 16, especially in the major reading frames.
(11) Since the plasmid-cured strains did not contain DNA sequences homologous to plasmid DNA, the gene for the free-inclusion protein must be encoded in the chromosome.
(12) Examination of the deduced amino acid sequence revealed an apparent homology to cAMP binding sites in several other proteins.
(13) Thus, introduction of arginine in position 5 with a hydrophobic amino acid in position 6 is compatible with high potency in several biological systems and results in compounds with lowered potency to release histamine compared to homologous peptides with tyrosine in position 5 and D-arginine in position 6.
(14) This receptor and a growing family of related cytokine receptors share homologous extracellular features, including a well-conserved WSXWS motif.
(15) Amino acid analysis indicated a significant number of serine amino acids: N-terminal sequence data demonstrated a high level of homology; and trypsin digestion followed by reversed-phase HPLC indicated the possibility of multiple phosphorylation sites.
(16) Homologous insemination in 52 couples during a period of one year yields a conception rate of 38.5%.
(17) The region is distinctive in that the sequence is absent from the homologous domain of the erythroid alpha chain and diverges from the normal internal repeat structure observed throughout other spectrins.
(18) Surrounding intact ipsilateral structures are more important for the recovery of some of the language functions, such as motor output and phonemic assembly, than homologous contralateral structures.

(20) The most striking homology was to yeast SEC7 in the central domain of the gene (57% identical over 466 bp) and also the protein level (42% identical amino acids; 39% conserved amino acids).
Homologous
Definition:
(a.) Having the same relative position, proportion, value, or structure.
(a.) Corresponding in relative position and proportion.
(a.) Having the same relative proportion or value, as the two antecedents or the two consequents of a proportion.
(a.) Characterized by homology; belonging to the same type or series; corresponding in composition and properties. See Homology, 3.
(a.) Being of the same typical structure; having like relations to a fundamental type to structure; as, those bones in the hand of man and the fore foot of a horse are homologous that correspond in their structural relations, that is, in their relations to the type structure of the fore limb in vertebrates.
