| 1. | There are, however, some circumstances in which essential genes can be manipulated.
|
| 2. | The 130 non-essential genes claimed at first have now reduced to 67.
|
| 3. | This gene is transcribed and is an essential gene involved in viral replication.
|
| 4. | Surprisingly, a significant number of essential genes has no known function.
|
| 5. | The specific functions of some 18 percent of the essential genes are unidentified.
|
| 6. | Thus, both types of gene deserts serve to retain essential genes within the genome.
|
| 7. | The number of essential genes is different for each organism.
|
| 8. | Essential genes are the set of genes thought to be critical for an organism's survival.
|
| 9. | Now, they claim completely different sets of non-essential genes.
|
| 10. | The individual analyses of each colony showed more results and estimates of essential genes necessary for life.
