Another example of a neuronal subtype-specific transcription factor is Runx1 (Runt-related transcription factor 1). Like the two other members of the mammalian Runt-related protein family, Runx1 acts as a context-dependent transcriptional activator or repressor [5], [6].
In contrast, JunB acts as a context-dependent tumor suppressor (Passegue et al., 2001).
Therefore, it is possible that TLK2 acts as a context-dependent driver of ER-positive/luminal tumours in the absence of PIK3CA expression.
Ang-2 has been shown to act as a context-dependent antagonist or agonist for Tie-2 with the antagonism as the best described effect [9], [10].
What potential mechanisms could then lead to cell type-specific and ligand-specific signaling differences for GDF-5 and enable GDF-5 to act as a context-dependent antagonist against BMP-2?
Our report highlights that one such factor is the increased sexualisation of women and girls in the media and popular culture – the "pornification of culture" – which acts as a conducive context for violence against women by normalising the portrayal of women and girls as sex objects, not people.
These games are exactly as they sound: heavy with text and supplemented by artwork that acts as a background and context for the story.
Acting as a constant context monitoring agent, a tablet or a smartphone can expand the capacity of a shoop floor system actor to carry out asset management tasks.
In those cases, the spatial dimension of the data is particularly relevant, as location acts as a key to provide context information, even in cases where there this no metadata attached to the observations.
These results suggest that TRF1 normally acts as a tumor suppressor in the context of the organism by preventing telomere-induced genetic instability in proliferating cells.
