Such a model would insure that myelination does not start before axon bundles and neuron groups are organized and partitioned into distinct functional groups, thereby insuring orderly myelination.
Interestingly, functional modules tend to be formed by proteins involved in the same stage of symbiosis [see Additional file 2] suggesting that distinct symbiosis-stages are organized and coordinated as distinct functional modules.
Biological membranes are increasingly understood to be organized, dynamic, and functional at the nanometer scale.
In tissue engineering the formation of organized and functional tissues is a very complex task: the cellular environment requires suitable physiological conditions that, presently, can be achieved and maintained by using properly designed biomaterials that can support the viability and all specific functions of cells.
Learning opportunities will be organized around functional literacy, life skills and non-formal education.
The nodes (ARS/AIMPs and their first neighbor CAGs) in the network model can be organized into functional modules in each of which the nodes have the same gene ontology biological processes.
Based on extensive biochemical and genetic studies, the core Mediator subunits have been suggested to be organized into three functional modules, Head, Middle and Tail, and the modular architecture and subunit composition are conserved from yeast to human.
This is because β-oxidation enzymes, the membrane-bound TCA cycle enzymes, and the respiratory chain may be organized in the functional complexes and work relatively independently from the cytosolic pool of ATP and NADH.
At a time when CEOs are charged with understanding all risk-taking activities, it is senseless for the regulatory structure to be organized in functional silos that blind it to systemic risk.
On the genome level, bacterial genes have long been known to be organized in functional groups such as operons or as co-conserved genomic islands [20].
