The phrase "activation of a certain" is correct and usable in written English.
It can be used when discussing the initiation or triggering of a specific process, function, or mechanism.
Example: "The activation of a certain enzyme is crucial for the metabolic pathway to function properly."
Alternatives: "triggering of a specific" or "initiation of a particular".
Given a signaling pathway, a question that immediately arises is whether pathway stimulation leads eventually to full activation of a certain downstream protein, for example, a transcription factor.
But from another point of view, modification of HMGB1 (and possibly of other DAMPs) could be caused by activation of a certain biochemical pathway during a specific cell death modality.
This could well be one of the driving forces of cell maturation and niche organization, however, our data suggesting that the stromal cells respond to signals from the hematopoietic cells opens for an alternative or possibly complementary explanation where the cells that in direct contact with the stromal cell stimulates activation of a certain cytokine profile.
Under specific experimental contexts, the overall activation enthalpy of a certain transition can become negative, at least in part owing to transient dissociations of water molecules from the protein side chains and backbone, favoring strong hydrophobic interactions.
Thus, the final activation or repression of a certain gene is very dependent on the promoter context.
Hence, when the main module fails, the spare module's activation takes a certain amount of time to be activated.
This pattern of STAT activation does allow a certain level of specificity of cytokine action.
A similar threshold basis for checkpoint activation has been documented for other cell cycle checkpoints, notably the DNA replication checkpoint in which activation requires a certain quantity of single-stranded DNA (Branzei and Foiani, 2005).
It is unlikely that indirect activities (e.g., activation of certain ethanol-responsive transcription factors that concomitantly activate certain miRNAs and respective target genes) are responsible for such over-targeting of upregulated mRNAs by a majority of the upregulated miRNAs.
This drug blocks the neuromuscular junction, requiring a larger amount of central motor activation to generate a certain absolute amount of tension.
Due to the adoption of operation constraints as well as the activation a certain amount of reactive power generation in Region 3 by a DER, the preliminary active power scheduling of DERs and Disco may be required to be changed.
