The phrase "a function that seems" is correct and usable in written English.
You can use it when describing a function or feature that appears to have a certain quality or characteristic, often based on observation rather than certainty.
Example: "The software includes a function that seems to enhance performance during peak usage times."
Alternatives: "a feature that appears" or "a capability that looks".
Enhanced proliferation has been reported upon ALK activation via PTN [ 6, 54], a function that seems to be dependent on PKB (protein kinase B /Akt activation, thus implicating the PI3K pathway as a target of PTN ALK signalling [ 54, 55].
In support of this hypothesis, mutant forms of Sas-6 that cannot homo-oligomerise through the N N interaction are unable to support efficient centriole duplication (Kitagawa et al., 2011; van Breugel et al., 2011), although they can still target to centrioles, a function that seems to rely on the C C domain (Fong et al., 2014; Keller et al., 2014).
UNLABELLED: Flow propagation velocity (Vp) is a new method of assessing left ventricular (LV) diastolic (D) function that seems to be insensitive to heart rate and preload changes.
G551D CFTR channels would, thereby, escape intracellular degradation but nevertheless fail to contribute adequately to chloride conductance due to the thermal instability of channel function that seems likely to reduce channel open probability at 37 °C.
I was getting frustrated at working on a little protein of unknown function that seemed to be important only to myself; and I didn't know if I wanted to do that all my life.
He lands, along with most of his friends the streets don't kill, in what they call the "system": the archipelago of detention centers, juvenile courts, and grim reformatories that have a main function that seems to be funneling their impoverished charges into the adult prison system or back onto the streets more brutalized than ever.
While great emphasis has been placed on the brain benefits of enriched environments during infancy and childhood, the last 20 years have witnessed a growing emphasis on peculiarities of brain function that seem to be defining features of adolescence.
The ∼300 aa conserved DUF 1387 domain is present in a number of hypothetical proteins of unknown function that seem to be restricted to mammals.
Chronic changes in the level of neuronal activity (over a period of days) trigger compensatory changes in synaptic function that seem to contribute to the homeostatic restoration of neuronal activity.
Is there this urge to use it to the point where you cannot function?" That seems unlikely to happen, though we all know what it's like to zone out in front of social media for way longer than we intended.
First, it explained the intimate interrelation of structure and function that seemed to require the existence of parts of the organism in an integrated system.
