Inoue et al. (2008) identified six rice NAAT genes (OsNAAT1-6), but only OsNAAT1 was highly up-regulated under Fe deficiency, suggesting that OsNAAT1, but not OsNAAT2-6, encodes the sole functional enzyme possessing NAAT activity.
Similarly, mRGCs appear to serve as the sole functional relay for photic input to the OPN.
Our MIC data agree with the electrophysiological results, showing stronger activity of ertapenem than cefepime in bacterial cells expressing Omp36 as the sole functional porin.
Furthermore, based on the global, genome-wide data this does not seem to be the sole functional role of p53 phosphorylation at S46. Future research using the resource of targets discovered in this study should expand the functions for which the phosphorylation of p53 at Serine 46 plays an important role.
That said, we are not suggesting that social chemosignaling is the sole functional aspect of handshaking.
Until the recent identification of new membrane bound estrogen receptors, ERα66 has been considered as the sole functional estrogen receptor in hormone sensitive breast tumor.
Ground reaction forces may be inadequate as a sole method for assessing functional outcome after cranial cruciate ligament repair.
In sum, measurement of ground reaction forces may be inadequate as a sole method for assessing functional outcome and thus more objective outcome assessment methods should be included in evaluation of CCL repair.
Considering the more complex structure of the Glu stabilizer, a sole effect of a single functional group is not possible.
Hence, S. pombe is not able to oxidize the ethanol produced during the exponential phase as a sole carbon source, since it lacks a functional glyoxylate cycle [20].
Similarly, Rac1CTCdc42 was functional, when expressed as a sole Rac1 copy, for embedded filamentous growth, suggesting that Rac1 nuclear accumulation is not required for embedded filamentous growth (Figure 3C).
