What's the difference between paralogism and paralogy?

Paralogism


Definition:

  • (n.) A reasoning which is false in point of form, that is, which is contrary to logical rules or formulae; a formal fallacy, or pseudo-syllogism, in which the conclusion does not follow from the premises.

Example Sentences:

  • (1) Explanations of these results have included accelerated evolution in the snake lineage, paralogy rather than orthology, and faulty determination of the sequence, and the rattlesnake is now often omitted from cytochrome c phylogenetic trees.
  • (2) 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.
  • (3) Moreover, an analysis of paralogous human and mouse beta-tubulin sequences supported the conclusion that the synonymous substitution rates in the mouse were higher than those in the human.
  • (4) These eight sequences form a family of paralogous homologues.
  • (5) FV fragments, VH fragments and a paralog peptide that had been derived from a parent antibody with a specificity for hen lysozyme were produced.
  • (6) This screening resulted in the isolation of full length cDNAs for the chicken homolog of HOX4F (cognate of mouse Hox-4.6), which we have termed GHox-4.6, and the chicken homolog of human HOX1I, which we have named GHox-1i, a paralog of Hox-4.6 in the HOX 1 cluster.
  • (7) An evolutionary tree analysis revealed paralogous relationships between specific members of the rhesus and human V region families.
  • (8) Comparisons of nucleotide and amino acid sequences as well as the analysis of the structural organization of murine and human homeo box genes reveal strong paralogous relationships between genes in different clusters.
  • (9) Identical intron-exon structure and extensive sequence homology of their paired boxes suggest that several Pax genes represent paralogs.
  • (10) Possible orthologous and paralogous relationships were investigated.
  • (11) However, this pair of paralogous Alu family repeats is absent at the corresponding positions in rhesus macaques.
  • (12) The extrapolated date for the origin of the common ancestral small-subunit rRNA (3.6-4.7 x 10(9) years ago) is consistent with major rRNA lineages being paralogous.
  • (13) In a second phase symptoms were observed such as paralogism, echolalia, verbigeration, circumstantiality, neologism, hypotonic thinking, perseveration, blocking.
  • (14) We propose a phylogeny of the creatine kinase genes in the lower chordates based on the time of appearance of new CK loci, the sequence in which the loci achieve a tissue restricted expression, and the immunochemical relatedness of the orthologous and paralogous gene products.
  • (15) Sequence data show that the immunoglobulins evolved from two sets of paralogous genes: a gene set coding for the V regions and another for the different C regions.
  • (16) The FV column had excellent specificity for hen lysozyme, the VH column had significantly reduced specificity and the paralog peptide column did not bind lysozyme at all.
  • (17) Southern hybridization analysis showed that the segments are paralogous, not allelic.
  • (18) The mechanism of character transference through paralogical conclusions required for this shows parallels to the logic schizophrenia.
  • (19) Models to account for the difference in similarity between the coding genes were tested by orthologous and paralogous comparisons of the extent of sequence divergence.
  • (20) This report describes the construction of a representative set of paratope analogs, or "paralogs," which can be conjugated to a chromatographic sorbent to combine desirable characteristics of traditional high-performance liquid chromatography columns with the specificity of a moderate affinity antibody.
