In order to avoid re-experiencing this trauma humans have developed a vast array of defence mechanisms that are activated every time we approach the point of fear.
A total of 12584 ESTs were sequenced and compared to GenBank database and a large array of defence or immune-related genes was identified.
Despite the existence of an extensive array of defence and repair systems to prevent and mitigate damage [ 1, 3– 5], the FRTA predicts that a proportion of ROS evade these systems, leading to oxidative damage.
Michael O'Hanlon of the Brookings Institution, a think-tank, quips that the system should be named after Mr Clinton, since much of the necessary spending was done on his watch.In theory, Mr Bush will move on from this relatively modest beginning to field an array of different defences, able to tackle missiles of every range and in every stage of their flight.
Because stress tolerance is mediated by an array of overlapping defence mechanisms, we tested the hypothesis that these two clones differently sensitive to O3 stress factor also exhibit different tolerance to Cd.
Nature has bestowed aerobic organisms with an array of antioxidant defence mechanism(s) to fight off the noxious effects of ROS.
Mammalian cells are constantly exposed to oxidative stress and rely on a comprehensive array of antioxidant defence comprising of both enzymatic and non-enzymatic molecules [ 1].
An interesting exception is the fungal genus Neurospora, which has the widest array of genome defence mechanisms found in eukaryotes, including the repeat-induced point mutation (RIP) mechanism whereby cytidine is mutated to thymidine [ 20, 21].
Last year Iran's diplomats, generals and president criss-crossed the continent, signing a bewildering array of commercial, diplomatic and defence deals.
If the welfare cuts are limited to £11 billion, the other departments, responsible for an array of services including education, defence, transport and policing, face an average real reduction of 25% by 2014-15.
