The phrase "abolish the function of" is correct and usable in written English.
It can be used in contexts where you want to indicate the removal or elimination of a specific role, duty, or purpose.
Example: "The committee decided to abolish the function of the advisory board due to its lack of effectiveness."
Alternatives: "eliminate the role of" or "terminate the function of".
From results, we suggested that our construction strategy of OmpC-MT fusion protein for membrane targeting did not abolish the function of OmpC, as the dual functional OmpC-MT fusion protein could not only regulate compatible solutes and glucose but also reduce radicals to elevate the host's toxins' tolerances.
It is also suggested that our construction strategy of OmpC-MT fusion protein for membrane targeting did not abolish the function of OmpC, as the dual functional OmpC-MT fusion protein could not only regulate compatible solutes but also reduce radicals to elevate the host's n-butanol tolerance.
Thus, mutations at residues near the binding interface can also abolish the function of the binding interface.
The neomycin gene is therefore inserted into one exon or it may replace some of the coding sequences, which have to be deleted to abolish the function of the gene to be targeted.
As shown in Fig. 6A, most of the alterations led to frame-shift or nonsense mutations in the gene, which is likely to abolish the function of the domain and cause stabilization of the mutant proteins.
Therefore the acj6 mutation in these females either does not abolish the function of all acj6 neurons, or does not prevent them from activating downstream neurons in response to photostimulation.
In contrast, neither ΔospC/ΔNt10/1 nor ΔospC/ΔNt10/2 bacteria were recovered from any specimens, suggesting that the 10-AA deletion may completely abolish the functions of OspC.
Such an early frameshift is very likely to abolish the functions of agl1.
Yatsenko et al [40] have shown that a point mutation in a SH3 domain binding site abolishes the function of Dg in epithelial cell polarity.
Finally, we have shown that mutation of amino acids L33A and L34A almost completely abolished the function of NES, suggesting the important roles of leucine in NES function (Figure 4C).
The similar abnormal cellular distribution of NHERF2 S303D and NHERF2 C30 suggests that Ser phosphorylation abolishes the function of NHERF2 EBRS.
