1·For example, the hereditary hemochromatosis mutation protects carriers from iron-deficiency because the mutated gene allows increased efficiency of iron absorption.
例如,因为突变的基因可以提高铁的吸收效率,所以遗传性血色素沉着病突变可以保护带菌者不缺铁。
2·While most disease-causing mutated are found in humans at a rate of one in a few thousand to one in a few million people, founder mutation can occur at much higher rates.
虽然大多数致病突变在人类中发现的概率为千分之一到百万分之一,但基础突变发生的几率可能高得多。
3·We have to do in-vitro cell culture experiments first, prove it in an animal model, and then develop a molecule or protein which will affect the mutated gene product.
我们首先得做一个体外细胞培养实验,在动物模型中证明它的存在,然后开发出一种能影响突变基因产物的分子或蛋白质。
4·When mutated, the gene causes a tumor, but one that the rat's immune system can attack and destroy.
基因突变时会引发肿瘤,但是是一个老鼠的免疫系统能攻击和摧毁的。
5·Studies have detected no signs that the virus has mutated to a more virulent or lethal form.
经研究未发现迹象说明病毒已突变为更具毒性或更致命的形式。
