The phrase "a specific and functional" is correct and usable in written English.
It can be used to describe something that is both clearly defined and practical or useful in a particular context.
Example: "The design of the app is a specific and functional solution to the users' needs."
Alternatives: "a precise and practical" or "a detailed and effective".
Comparison with other cAMP-elevating agents showed that length and site of cAMP synthesis are crucial to modulation of gene transcription, which indicates that prolonged perinuclear production of cAMP is a specific and functional feature of EdTx intoxication mechanism.
Despite the low density of Cav3.2 channels on the plasma membrane, BK channels were consistently activated by Ca2+ entry through Cav3.2 channels, which indicates that there is a specific and functional coupling between both channels in LNCaP cells.
Uracil misincorporation was more sensitive to changes in folate status than other measures of DNA stability and therefore could be considered a specific and functional marker of folate status, which may also be relevant to cancer risk in healthy people.
For these query CF patients, a specific and sensitive CFTR functional test to exclude or confirm a CFTR functional defect characteristic of CF is needed [ 1, 6].
Our findings demonstrate that fibroblasts can be converted directly into a specific differentiated and functional neural subtype, the spinal motor neuron.
Understanding free ports as a specific structural and functional node of international transport requires further evidence about the interactions between dry ports (inland terminals), transportation corridors and port competitiveness, particularly as it relates to trade (Slack, 1999; Roso et al., 2009; Wilmsmeier et al., 2011).
Assessing ecotoxicological effects on communities provides an opportunity for integrating specific and functional biodiversity in such assessments.
These results suggest that many late-expressed miRNAs mediate target non-coherence in a tissue-specific and functional manner.
The application of thin film sensors on hot section components of gas turbine engines requires the formation a specific and complex layered structure that is functional, reliable, and durable.
During second part of the studio (after the field-trip), students or pairs of students will develop a project for which they will also design not only an architectural response, but also a specific functional and institutional brief.
In this work, we first derived several novel graph theoretical metrics to explain the dynamic behavior of a protein and of its neighborhoods in the network, and then out of a global distribution of dynamic profiles of proteins we revealed a highly specific and organized functional dynamic layout model of the protein network, which seems to be consistent across different datasets.
