The phrase "and functional linkage between" is correct and usable in written English.
It can be used in contexts discussing relationships or connections between different systems, processes, or concepts, particularly in technical or academic writing.
Example: "The study aims to explore the structural and functional linkage between the two biological systems."
Alternatives: "and functional connection between" or "and operational relationship between".
There can be a variety of reasons for the conservation of sequence (including correlations between 'distant' regions), but the importance to structure and function, and functional linkage between them, underlie such correlations.
The close ancestral and functional linkage between clotting and inflammation is readily appreciated in study of human physiologic responses to a variety of potentially injurious stimuli.
We also applied domain fusion analysis to several so called Rosetta Stone proteins with unusual domain composition to infer protein domain interactions and functional linkage between putative HI-associated proteins identified in the Aspergilli proteomes.
Thus, there is extensive evidence indicating that patients with major depression tend to adopt a more abstract level of goal/action identification, which is at odds with the hypothesized and observed functional linkage between sad affect and problems and a concrete level of goal/action identification found in non-depressed participants.
This work suggests a mechanism regulating the RBR ligase activity of TRIAD1 and HHARI, demonstrates a novel function of cullin neddylation, and demonstrates a functional linkage between RBR and CRL E3s.
This is similar to the process of uploading the expression profile of a cell treated by a drug to the connectivity map [3], comparing it with the pre-constructed transcriptomic data of the cell treated with different drugs, and then making a functional linkage between the user's drug and the drugs in the server's database.
The dual roles of GSH, Atox1, and Grx1 in cellular redox and copper homeostasis strongly suggest a functional linkage between these two systems.
Satoyama, a traditional socio-ecological production landscape, which provided a functional linkage between paddy fields and the associated environment has lost its functions.
To more fully understand the functional linkage between DH and PH domains, we have determined the crystal structure of the DH/PH fragment of Dbs without bound GTPase.
