The linear, double-helical structure of DNA was initially recognized as beautiful, as well as being informative about the mechanism of heredity.
In our analysis, such deviations as well as a few cases of alternative biochemical routes were initially recognized as inconsistencies or gaps (missing genes) in reconstructed pathways.
LTs, formed by lipoxygenases (LO) from arachidonic acid (AA), were initially recognized as important lipid-derived bronchoconstrictors, but are meanwhile known as mediators of immune reactions and inflammation in diverse diseases, such as asthma, rhinitis, cancer, and atherosclerosis.
Initially recognized as a protein similar to bacterial carboxypeptidase, the gene product was quickly identified as TPPI [8], [9].
Achievement was initially recognized as an important source of human motivation by the American psychologist Henry Murray in the late 1930s.
Although the shootings were not initially recognized as being connected, law-enforcement authorities soon realized that those two acts of violence were just the first of what would be more than a dozen linked shootings over the next 23 days.

This chapter reviews the activity, specificity and structural chemistry of stromelysin 3. Stromelysin 3 was initially recognized as the third member of the stromelysin subfamily within the matrix metalloproteinase superfamily on the basis of the similarity of its domain structure to the stromelysins.
Although not initially recognized as such, these teeth were probably the first Deinosuchus remains to be scientifically described.
A number of them flew right beside the American ships, flashing signal lights in an effort to confirm their identity, but they were not initially recognized as Japanese because the remaining Wildcats were attempting to land aboard the carriers.
While neural stem cells were initially recognized as potential therapeutic agents for stroke and neurodegenerative disease based on their potential to replace lost neurons and integrate into host circuitry, our studies support the possibility that the therapeutic potential of neural stem cells may lie predominantly in their ability to promote endogenous brain repair processes.
