"a subtle reduction" is a correct and usable phrase in written English.
You can use it to describe a small or gradual decrease or decrease in something, such as: - "The company implemented a series of cost-cutting measures, resulting in a subtle reduction in their annual expenses." - "She made a few subtle reductions to the recipe to make it healthier without sacrificing flavor." - "The artist's latest painting featured a subtle reduction in bold colors, giving it a more subdued and elegant look."
By contrast, no difference in Pol II occupancy was observed in the crc-1 mutant (Fig. 4j), and a subtle reduction was observed in the ag-1 mutant compared with the wild type.
By contrast, normotensive anemia (1 1 HES/blood fluid exchange) preserved global organ perfusion but was unable to prevent a subtle reduction in brain tissue PtO2.
Characterization and uniqueness of optimizers of Riesz-type functionals were established in [3], our new approach also allows us to weaken (Ψ3) of [3]; thanks to a subtle reduction of the Riesz-type functionals to the Hardy-Littlewood ones (Theorem 2).
For instance, a person's asthma will be deeper than his or her skin rash, a person's fear of death will be deeper than his or her irritability, and a person's loss of self esteem will be deeper than a subtle reduction in memory.
A subtle reduction in the recovery kinetics of SR45/U1-70K complex was observed with staurosporine (Figure 7).
The parietal cortex has been less intensively imaged and with inconsistent results (reviewed by [16]), although recent studies point to a subtle reduction of parietal volume including that of the superior parietal gyrus [13], [19] and the postcentral gyrus [89].
In contrast, the D-loop-E mutation in the Smc1 ATPase active site (SpSmc3DE), analogous to the smc3-D1161E allele that abolished chromosomal association of cohesin, led to a subtler reduction in cohesin's total ATPase activity.
This also correlated with a more subtle reduction in H3K27me3 but largely unchanged levels of H3K4me3.
However, we observed only a very subtle reduction of colony size when hat1 was combined with the replication defective mutant mcm2-1 (Additional file 2), while virtually no interaction was detectable between hat1 or hat2 null alleles in combination with ts-alleles in other essential initiation factors examined (e.g. cdc7-1 or cdc6-1; Additional file 2 and data not shown).
Thus, a subtle thickness reduction in the mineralized collagen fibrils would be primarily attributable to the structural variation in our experiment.
Our results are similar to the latter study in that CBP protein levels are reduced in a Psn-reduced background, however we did not observe the subtle reduction in CBP transcripts (∼20%) that they reported (Fig. 3B).
