The phrase "a protected function" is correct and usable in written English.
It can be used in contexts related to programming, software development, or legal terminology where certain functions or rights are safeguarded from modification or access.
Example: "In object-oriented programming, a protected function can only be accessed by the class itself and its subclasses."
Alternatives: "a secured function" or "a safeguarded function".
[n8] Despite the Court's rejection of this [p574] uncontroverted evidence, I believe it clearly establishes that unannounced police searches of newspaper offices will significantly burden the constitutionally protected function of the press to gather news and report it to the public.
These 7-nitroindolines release their protected function efficiently, and tuning of the aromatic substituents at the C-4 and C-5 position has an impact on their reactivity.
In each iteration, the algorithm applies FVA in the current network to calculate for each removable (non-protected) reaction i the feasible flux ranges separately for each protected function k defined by D k / d k.
After deletion of a reaction, feasibility of the protected functions (condition (c)), of protected reactions (if enforced in the specification of (b)) and of protected metabolites (at least one reaction that contains the protected metabolite must be feasible) is tested.
Network pruning removes elements of the network that are dispensable for the protected functions and delivers a subnetwork of the full system.
The actual network reduction algorithm (see pseudo-code below and Fig. 1) starts with a preprocessing step, which checks the feasibility of the protected functions in the original network and removes (non-protected) blocked reactions.
Protected functions and phenotypes: described by appropriate inequalities (see below).
Many other reduction problems can be defined as well by using appropriate criteria for protected functions and parts.
The reduced model gives rise to 10 elementary modes reproducing not only the protected functions of pure biomass or ethanol synthesis but also growth-coupled ethanol production (Additional file 2).
Le Cirque 2000, while arguably on the flashy side in its public rooms, has a large, wood-panelled, high ceilinged, fireplace-equipped, Landmarks-Conservancy-protected function room where the party actually took place.
