What's the difference between ogre and owre?

Ogre


Definition:

  • (n.) An imaginary monster, or hideous giant of fairy tales, who lived on human beings; hence, any frightful giant; a cruel monster.

Example Sentences:

  • (1) "Then the European commission and the council will start looking like an ogre here, and what the Daily Mail says – which is not true now – about hostility to the Brits inside the institutions will start being true."
  • (2) To crush any residual affinity for the monarchy, British propaganda against Thibaw “went into high gear”, said Thant Mtint-U, painting the monarch as an ogre, despot and drunkard.
  • (3) We have constructed a P2 ogr deletion mutant by in vitro techniques.
  • (4) Phages carrying Cys or Ala in place of Tyr-42 gave burst sizes at least as high as P2 ogr+ in a rpoA+ strain; a Gly substitution also allowed P2 to grow in either a rpoA+ or rpoA109 background, but markedly reduced the burst size.
  • (5) There, proprietorial and remorselessly downbeat, like the ogre in Shrek, stands MigrationWatch UK.
  • (6) Essebsi has dismissed the word “taghaoul” (power grab) that the Marzouki camp has deployed, evoking the ogre (“ghoul”) of north African Berber and Arab legend.
  • (7) The repeat is not present in the promoter region of P2 ogr.
  • (8) We propose that the P4 delta and P2 ogr gene products bind the -55 region of the P4 and P2 late promoters.
  • (9) We have inserted the ogr gene into a plasmid under control of the leftward promoter and operator of bacteriophage lambda.
  • (10) The bacteriophage P2 ogr gene product, a 72-residue basic protein rich in cysteine and histidine, is a positive regulatory factor for phage late gene transcription in both P2 and satellite phage P4.
  • (11) Thermal induction of ogr gene expression in this plasmid results in overproduction of a small protein that has been shown by complementation to possess Ogr function.
  • (12) The bacteriophage P2 ogr gene encodes an 8.3-kDa protein that is a positive effector of P2 late gene transcription.
  • (13) P2 mutants (P2 ogr) able to overcome the gro109 block have been isolated in which synthesis of late P2 mRNA and phage proteins Is restored.
  • (14) It seems reasonable to assume that mutants which strongly affect development of the imaginal-specific central nervous system may evidence abnormalities during the late larval or pupal stages when the adult central nervous system is undergoing final assembly and might show a lethal phase prior to eclosion (as is true for mutations at the previously defined l(1)ogre locus).
  • (15) The cryptic ogr genes are constitutively transcribed, apparently at a higher level than the wild-type ogr gene in a P2 lysogen.
  • (16) We have made null mutants of the P2 ogr and P4 delta genes.
  • (17) Seen up close in Helsinki earlier this year, Putin did not look the ogre his critics sometimes make him out to be.
  • (18) The P2 ogr gene encodes a 72-amino-acid protein required for P2 late gene expression.
  • (19) Neither GDH or OGR mobility alone clearly differentiated all species, but their combined use provided unambiguous discrimination of all species except F. varium and F. mortiferum.
  • (20) The DNA sequence of the ogr gene containing the ogr1 mutation was determined.

Owre


Definition:

  • (n.) The aurochs.

Example Sentences:

  • (1) Bleeding was successfully controlled in 9 patients with the OWR syndrome and in 72 patients with angiodysplasia (range of follow-up, 1 to 39 months).
  • (2) A combination of upper and lower gastrointestinal VMs was found in 11% of patients with angiodysplasia and 60% of those with the OWR syndrome.
  • (3) A 23-month-old girl with Osler-Weber-Rendu (OWR) disease manifested by hemoptysis died of massive pulmonary hemorrhage.
  • (4) For, ance that five-and-forty's speel'd, See crasy, weary, joyless Eild, Wi' wrinkled face, Comes hostin', hirplin', owre the field, Wi' creepin' pace.
  • (5) Of these patients, 83 had angiodysplasia and 10 had the Osler-Weber-Rendu (OWR) syndrome.
