The phrase "affects their function" is correct and usable in written English.
It can be used when discussing how something influences or changes the way something operates or works.
Example: "The chemical composition of the material affects their function in the overall system."
Alternatives: "influences their operation" or "modifies their performance".
Treatment with HDAC inhibitors results in the hyperacetylation of chaperones including heat shock protein (hsp 90, hsp70, hsp40, and the ER-resident hsp70 homolog, glucose-regulated protein 78 (GRP78), which affects their function.
Furthermore, loss of AE3 in Müller cells likely affects their function, impacting on b-wave generation such as seen in Müller cell sheen dystrophy [30].
As to how much their sequence diversity affects their function during T-DNA transfer remains unknown.
In summary, Marf and Drp1 mutants exhibit dysfunctional mitochondria, but loss of Marf affects their function more severely.
Interaction with TEAD is crucial for YAP, TAZ and Vgll function and any mutation that compromises their interaction with TEAD also affects their function.
Increasing the intracranial pressure leads to compression of important brain regions, and a risk of herniation syndromes, whereby certain regions may become pushed through these holes, stretched or compressed, which critically affects their function.
Ethanol disrupts the cell membranes of neurons, mildly and temporarily, but neurons are complex and delicate, so this still affects their functioning.
Redox imbalance in cells induces lipid peroxidation and generates a class of highly reactive metabolites known as lipid-derived electrophiles (LDEs) that can modify proteins and affects their functions.
However, increasing evidence indicates that HZ interacts with the immune cells, affects their functions and thereby participates in the immunopathology of the infection.
Recent studies have demonstrated that p300 acetylates BER proteins including pol β, 8-oxoguanine-DNA glycosylase 1 (OGG1), and NEIL2 (a glycosylase for oxidized pyrimidines) [6], [7], [9], and that acetylation of these proteins affects their functions differentially.
For most structural elements, the structural specificity or structural stability directly affects their functions.
