Similar Ka/Ks ratios in pairwise comparisons of Utricularia EIN2 genes do not indicate any shift in function.
He recognised a shift in the function of nation-states, from the provision of rights to that of services, which transcend constitutional jurisdictions.
We are talking about a two-step process, (1) the origin of a trait followed by (2) a shift in its function at a later point in time.
Analyses indicated that riparian woody plant traits were related to the surrounding watershed matrix, most notably flood intolerance showed increased importance in urban areas possibly signifying a shift in hydrologic function.
Whether this is the reason he dropped out or not, it provides an example of a shift in the function of the drums from simply being a timekeeper to being the master orchestrator of the band.
LVP can interfere with TLR4-triggered maturation of DC, inducing a shift in DC function that stimulates Th2 cells instead of Th1, by a mechanism that is ERK- and p38-MAPK-dependent.
A shift in immune function has been demonstrated in patients with CRC.
Indeed, CHIP has been shown to elicit the release of p23 from Hsp90 upon binding (32), thereby causing a shift in the function of Hsp90 from refolding client proteins to promoting their degradation.
However, even at this point, there can be little doubt that auto-pollination via rostellum receptivity (Type III) represents a uniquely derived character state of B. bicoloratum, in which it most probably evolved from an erect (nonreceptive) rostellum, implying a shift in the function of a pre-existing trait or 'exaptation' (Gamisch et al., 2013).
These variants may be a consequence of genetic (protein coding variants, promoter sequence changes or splicing variants) or epigenetic modification (e.g., methylation changes in CpG islands, histones or microRNA expression), which in summation could produce a shift in network function to impair cardiac development.
