About half of the apparently nonfunctional alleles in N2 have only a single apparent defect (usually a stop codon, frameshift, or small deletion), and sequence analysis of several of these genes suggests that they have functional alleles in other wild isolates of C. elegans [ 28].
I've had no problems with the machine; in fact, I can't even understand the techno-legalese description of its apparent defect.
The interim report from the Rail Accident Investigation Branch (RAIB) says that there was no apparent defect in either the tram's brakes or the track.
It is found that the unique parameter of the M-integral cannot be used as a unified failure criterion to predict the damage evolution and the final failure due to the major obstacle that the critical value of the M-integral is not a problem-invariant constant and shows an apparent defect configuration-dependence.
CT scans showed an apparent defect in the L4 lamina, which was thought to be laminolysis (Fig. 5).
Notably, comparing with wild-type cells, spt16-m also exhibits an apparent defect in shmoo formation after induction of Sir3p.
No apparent defect is associated with the flies rescued by the long form; short-form-rescued flies (referred to as M1L), however, exhibit defects in fertilities.
Kv beta2-null mice have been previously characterized in our laboratory as having reduced lifespans, cold swim-induced tremors and occasional seizures, but no apparent defect in Kv alpha-subunit trafficking.
CT images revealed sacralization of L5 and the most caudal lumbar vertebra was present at L4, and an apparent defect in the L4 lamina was thought to be bilateral intralaminar laminolysis (Fig. 4a, b).
These features of the XPS spectra indicate that the c-ZrO2 and t-ZrO2 samples were regular surfaces and with no apparent defect relative to the Zr4+ species; this is rather significant.
