Example: "To improve the flow of the presentation, we decided to alter the sequence of the slides."
Alternatives: "change the order" or "modify the arrangement."
The process, known as DNA methylation, is one mechanism of epigenetic change, heritable change that does not alter the sequence of DNA itself.
But recent research has shown that epigenetic processes heritable changes that do not alter the sequence of DNA play a huge role in memory and brain development.
The question of whether interactive works are fixed (given the user's ability to constantly alter the sequence of the "action") has been resolved by the courts in the context of video games and should not present a new issue in the context of the NII.
We introduced mutations into the 5′ NTR of a CTV replicon to alter the sequence and/or the predicted secondary structures with or without additional compensatory changes designed to restore predicted secondary structures, and examined their effect on replication in transfected protoplasts.
During RNA editing, cells amend the nucleotide sequence of the RNA, which can alter the sequence of amino acids in the resulting protein and change the protein's function.
Channel 4 said it stood by its investigation, adding: "The footage as broadcast for the first time on December 18 2012 was not edited by the production team to change or alter the sequence of events.
As well as affecting transcriptional regulation, repeat sequences can alter the sequences of genes without disrupting their function.
Another strategy is to use mutagenesis to knock out the allergen genes, or possibly to alter the sequences of major allergenic epitopes in those proteins.
Here, we describe novel mutations in bamD that lower levels of BamD 10-fold and >25-fold without altering the sequence of the mature protein.
This chapter describes posttranscriptional modifications of the RNA in the EC, utilized to introduce changes in the RNA without altering the sequence of the DNA template and to address the effects of transcript composition on EC stability and catalytic activity.
