Fungal secondary metabolites have been suggested to function as chemical defenses against insect antagonists, i.e. predators and competitors.
Consequently, a number of nucleases have been suggested to function in ICL repair, including MUS81-EME1, XPF-ERCC1 and SLX4-SLX1 (Douwet et al., 2014).
For example, three copies of an E-box element defined by the core motif 'CANNTG' has been suggested to function as JA-responsive enhancer within −515 to −265 region of rice chitinase gene OsChia4a (Table 2).
These ocelli have been suggested to function to limit fin-nipping by piranha (Serrasalmus spp ., which co-occur with A. ocellatus in its natural environment.
Heterochromatin maintenance has been suggested to function as a self-reinforcing feedback loop, as new siRNAs are formed from the occasional nascent transcripts by RdRP for incorporation into local RITS complexes.
CDH13 has been suggested to function as a negative regulator of neural cell growth [69].
Bcl11b has been suggested to function as tumor suppressor in cells, primarily based on human loss of homozygosity (LOH) studies.
Lipid rafts have been suggested to function as platforms connecting receptor complexes and their signaling pathways [14].
Such a transduction cascade has previously been suggested to function independent of Gnat2 in zebrafish cones[27].
In this regard, exosomes have been suggested to function as immune-response modifiers because these vesicles are secreted by many types of tumors cells.
The remaining 10 genes have not been investigated in ovarian cancer and include SFPQ which has been suggested to function as an androgen receptor co-regulator [57].
