The phrase "analogous functions" is correct and usable in written English.
It can be used in contexts where you are comparing functions that have similar characteristics or roles in different systems or scenarios.
Example: "In mathematics, we often study analogous functions to understand how different equations can produce similar results under certain conditions."
Alternatives: "similar functions" or "comparable functions".
7. Secondary structure of the region following the Zn-fingers (where present) for most LS is compatible with the RRM fold For typical predictions based on the 'guilt by association' approach, the first four points would be sufficient to predict the analogous functions for these subunits (such a functional link between LS and Cas10 has been suggested in our 2006 paper [ 5]).
Iron-core transformers serve analogous functions in the audio-frequency range.
The compounds carnitine, choline, lipoic acid, inositol, and para-aminobenzoic acid perform analogous functions in animals and have been included among the B vitamins by certain authorities.
To establish sequences of historical development, he made comparisons of the structures by which analogous functions are accomplished in different societies.
Three other demigoddesses with analogous functions are preserved in Latvian mythology Dēkla, protector of babies, Kārta, spinner of the thread of life, and Māra, goddess of fertility.
While the HSV-2 UL41 and HSV-1 UL41 gene products have analogous functions, vhs-1 is 40-fold less active than vhs-2.
A major use of interspecies alignments is to transfer functional data from one species to another, making an alignment most useful if aligned functional regions have the same or analogous function in the two species.
Androgens regulate male sexual characteristics, and estrogens perform an analogous function in females.
The well conserved structure and properties suggests an analogous function of CpC8α to mammalian C8α, though it remains to be confirmed by further study.
In an era when the misguided and the malevolent still proffer the idea that his works were a put-up job by secret aristos such as the Earl of Oxford, seeing the records of his birth, marriage and death in the chancel of this beautiful church serves an analogous function to those "material evidence of crimes" at Auschwitz, giving the lie to revisionists and conspiracy theorists.
RA3 serves the purpose of converting trehalose-6-phosphate into trehalose, an analogous function to that of Tps2 in fungi.
