It can be used in contexts where you are referring to a function that has been determined or established through analysis or investigation.
Example: "The ascertained function of the algorithm was to optimize data processing efficiency."
Alternatives: "determined function" or "established function".
The JIA-associated clusters (same colour code in Figure 2B and C; listed in Additional file 3: Table S3A) within the MEN were mapped onto biological pathways using the Reactome Cytoscape plugin to ascertain function.
To ascertain function, classified genes were annotated with GO-SLIM terms by which initial, persistent, and latent gene groups were annotated with 398, 146, and 665 functional terms, respectively.
Therefore, we ascertained hearing function in the inbred long sleep (ILS) and inbred short sleep (ISS) strains.
To differentiate the abnormal compound auditory responses, we ascertained the function of the sensory outer hair cells directly by using distortion-product otoacoustic emission (DPOAE) tests.
One-leg-hop and one-leg-rising tests ascertained the function of operated knee.
As far as could be ascertained, the functions(s) of PE_PGRS17 and PE_PGRS18 are unknown and, as yet, there is no indication whether they are essential or not.
Finally, we ascertained physical functioning annually using the physical component scale of the medical outcome study 36-items, short form (range 0-100), 24 25 a higher score indicating better physical functioning.
To date, traditional phylogenomic studies concentrate on the search for orthology groups in gene family trees to infer the function of unknown proteins, yet the use of such phylogenies to ascertain the function of the encoded proteins is overlooked.
Once candidate genes are identified, functional validation is needed to ascertain the function of the candidate.
However, alanine substitution of FLL157 159 (designated FLL) resulted in a gain-of-function when expressed in cells, making this mutant informative in ascertaining FIT2 function.
Therefore, we used the feeding RNAi method to identify loss-of-function phenotypes of uncharacterized helicase-like genes to aid in ascertaining the function of the gene products.
