What's the difference between orthology and speaking?

Definition:

  • (n.) The right description of things.

Example Sentences:

  • (6) Analyses of silent and replacement site differences in the two exons of the paralogous and orthologous genes in each species indicate that common selective forces are acting on all five loci.
  • (7) To learn more about the evolution of these genes, it is necessary to clone the homologs, or more correctly the orthologs, from different species.

  • (11) Orthology of prosimian and human epsilon-, gamma-, and beta-related globin genes was established by dot-matrix analysis.
  • (12) Since literature reports that the other known single-chained LDH's from lampreys are definitely of the A type, we suggest the possibility that L. planeri enzyme underwent some orthologous evolution which brought it to resemble the heart isozyme.
  • (13) These data demonstrate the utility of cDNA expression for examining the activities of human P450s and further suggest potentially important differences in catalytic activities of orthologous P450s found in different species.
  • (14) Direct sequencing of genomic DNA from diploid individuals leads to ambiguities on sequencing gels whenever there is more than one mismatching site in the sequences of the two orthologous copies of a gene.
  • (15) The most salient features of shark gamma-crystallin lie in the fact that this crystallin possessed a significant alpha-helical structure in the peptide backbone as revealed by circular dichroism study, in contrast to those orthologous gamma-crystallins from other vertebrate species including bony fishes which all show a predominant beta-sheet secondary structure.
  • (16) However, as this FMO is present in low abundance in human adult liver, the general term "hepatic" for this form of the enzyme is misleading, and thus we propose the name FMO1 to describe this human FMO and its mammalian orthologs.
  • (17) As these families are not orthologous with the Mhc class II beta-chain-encoding gene families of birds, the different mammalian families must have diverged after the separation of birds and mammals approximately 250 Mya but before the radiation of placental mammals (60-80 Mya).
  • (18) Portions of the 12S and 16S mitochondrial ribosomal genes for 16 species representing nine tribes in the mammal family Bovidae were compared with six previously published orthologous sequences.
  • (19) These reactions and their modifications have assumed growing importance to expansion of knowledge, primarily on orthological and pathobiological problems.
  • (20) While our phylogenetic analysis confirmed the well established separation of the L and R isozymes from the K and M isozymes, its power became most evident in the identification of non-orthologous (or variant) forms of PK.
