What's the difference between patroness and transpose?

Patroness


Definition:

  • (n.) A female patron or helper.

Example Sentences:

  • (1) Built in 1955 with a capacity of 40,000, the Basilica of the National Shrine of Our Lady Aparecida – the principal patroness of Brazil and a unifying figure for many in the nation's Catholic Church.
  • (2) The introduction of MR into the genome, whether patro- or matroclinously, resulted in dramatic and proportionately equivalent enhancements in the activities of DMN, both with respect to the induction of larval lethality and somatic sectoring.

  • (4) After Tilda Swinton's ancient patroness bequeaths them a priceless painting, the unlikely pair become embroiled in a noir caper that could not be more Wes Anderson if it tried: nostalgia-tinted, gently charming yet unfolding at a breakneck pace, as if the miniature figures of an ornate doll's house have been brought to life and instructed to undertake all sorts of forgotten fun, from jail breaks and pistol fights to vertiginous chases down a mountainside on the back of a rickety bobsleigh.
  • (5) A circannual modulation of the 3-h amplitude (A) or MESOR of systolic BP (SBP) and diastolic BP (DBP) was seen mainly in prematures with a positive family history of high BP on the father's (f+) side or with both a patro linous and matro-linous history (f+m+), the circannual modulation of HR ultradian A was statistically significant only in "f- m-" infants.

Transpose


Definition:

  • (v. t.) To change the place or order of; to substitute one for the other of; to exchange, in respect of position; as, to transpose letters, words, or propositions.
  • (v. t.) To change; to transform; to invert.
  • (v. t.) To bring, as any term of an equation, from one side over to the other, without destroying the equation; thus, if a + b = c, and we make a = c - b, then b is said to be transposed.
  • (v. t.) To change the natural order of, as words.
  • (v. t.) To change the key of.

Example Sentences:

  • (1) The initial observation of Tn551 transition involved UV inactivation of the carrier plasmid; this would appear to be a general means of detecting transposable elements.
  • (2) The spontaneous v alleles that are suppressed by the suppressor of sable [su(s)] are apparently identical insertions of 412, a copia-like transposable element.
  • (3) Analysis of a transposable, element-induced o2 allele, o2-m20, revealed that sectors of endosperm cells contained the nuclear-localized O2 protein, indicating excision of the transposable element.
  • (4) Restriction mapping and Southern hybridization analyses of these cloned DNA fragments suggested that these s-triazine catabolic genes may be located on a transposable element, the ends of which are identical 2.2-kb insertion sequences.
  • (5) The availability of a transposon-based mutator system should aid in the cloning of additional genes in C. elegans, and the particular properties of this Tc1 system may provide information about the control of transposable element activity more generally.
  • (6) Up to now, one surgical repair in an adolescent with transposed great arteries and total anomalous pulmonary venous drainage of the supracardiac type has been reported.
  • (7) After shunting these arteries were transposed to the surface of the left ventricle which allowed the ventriculotomy incision under them to be sutured.
  • (8) The distribution of the number of copies of P and I transposable elements per genome was investigated by in situ hybridization for a large set of Drosophila melanogaster strains.
  • (9) Here, we examine a group of six recessive mutations, the facets (fa, fa3, fag, fag-2, fafx and fasw), which affect eye and optic lobe morphology and have been previously shown to be associated with the insertion of transposable elements into an intronic region of Notch.
  • (10) Fetal abuse may be one antecedent of child abuse, and this paper attempts to transpose the known correlates of child abuse into an antenatal time framework.
  • (11) Our results indicate that, if the mutant can be transposed equally well in the presence of the wild type, then it can be expected to be found in preponderance, whereas elements, such as retroviruses, where the transposing genome and its phenotypic expression are coupled, may be characterized by a low mutant frequency.
  • (12) The insertion element is shown to transpose to different sites in the chromosome of a related fast-growing species, M. smegmatis.
  • (13) We suggest that oriC and mioC might have been transposed during evolution into an asnC regulation.
  • (14) The insertion sequence IS1 belongs to a class of bacterial transposable genetic elements that can form compound transposons in which two copies of IS1 flank an otherwise non-transposable segment of DNA.
  • (15) This shows that the element was transposed to this location before speciation of the subgenus.
  • (16) The transposable genetic element Tn3, which carries an ampicillin (Ap) resistance determinant, has been translocated from a ColE1-Apr plasmid, RSF2124, to the genome of the filamentous single-stranded DNA phage M13.
  • (17) "At first I thought we could take the six characters and transpose them to a time in the future after an imaginary climate apocalypse.
  • (18) To determine whether exposure to proximal intestinal contents per se is an adequate stimulus for ileal adaptation of the magnitude seen after jejunectomy, rats were prepared by transposing 30 cm of distal ileum to the duodenojejunal junction or by sham operation.
  • (19) P transposable elements in Drosophila melanogaster can undergo precise loss at a rate exceeding 13% per generation.
  • (20) Two alleles were identified as mutations in the accC gene, the third allele was identified as a mutation in the accB gene, and the fourth allele was shown to be an insertion of an IS1 transposable element in the promoter region of the operon, resulting in reduced transcription.
