The phrase "a distinct timing" is correct and usable in written English.
It can be used when referring to a specific or unique moment or schedule in a context where timing is important.
Example: "The project requires a distinct timing to ensure all components align perfectly for the launch."
Alternatives: "a specific timing" or "a unique timing".
[Researchers] discovered that older musicians had a distinct neural timing advantage.
In summary, examination of temporal expression profiles of Cdx gene targets did not suggest that the stronger Cdx4 effect is related to a distinct activation timing of Cdx genes.
This protocol is intended to selectively transfect pyramidal neurons in upper cortical layers (layer II/III) due to the distinct timing, origin and migration paths (that is, radial vs. tangential) of cortical pyramidal neurons and interneurons36.
From the practical point of view, the integration of different computational models provides a modeling environment that allows one to co-simulate models written in different design languages and with distinct timing, communication, and synchronization concepts.
The control of rhythmic action sequences may involve two distinct timing strategies, i.e., event-based and emergent timing, which are usually revealed through finger-tapping and circle-drawing tasks, respectively.
Overall these results demonstrate that whereas the two tasks share a common representation of elapsing time, putatively embedded in climbing neuronal activity, distinct task requirements (at least at durations of 600 ms or more) might recruit distinct timing mechanisms, which induce different degrees of temporal variability.
These three membrane-sculpting proteins are recruited to the endocytic sites with distinct timing.
The movies revealed the possibility of distinct timing of DA changes in different subregions of the striatum.
The timing of initiation of active caspase-7 in mandibular and long bone reflects the distinct timing of ossification in both models.
This result could be associated with the underlying health status of each one of them, with complications due to sepsis itself as well as with distinct timing for response to treatment.
