Normally, these rolling tendencies neutralize each other in the central nervous system, not becoming manifest unless the statocyst on one side of the body is functionally eliminated by complete surgical removal, by destruction of its sensory epithelium, or by cutting its nerve.
Drosophila fat body is functionally equivalent to mammalian liver and white adipose tissue (WAT), and is the main tissue for TG storage.
"Frankly, the fear is not so much that any martian microbes would be pathogenic, but that they might find some useful resource in us or our environment". Imagine if they formed inert lumps in our bodies, or functionally displaced other kinds of earthly organisms.
10.7554/eLife.04132.025 Figure 8. Sec bodies are functionally reversible and act as reservoir for ERES components during starvation.
This study is an attempt to systematically identify the target gene-bodies for functionally defined human CNE-enhancers.
Scattering of enhancer elements over larger regions in vertebrate genomes, impede attempts to assign precise target gene bodies to functionally characterized enhancer elements.
Blocking MVB turnover enhanced, whereas blocking MVB maturation inhibited miRNA-mediated target mRNA silencing, indicating that MVBs and GW bodies are functionally involved in miRNA-mediated RNA silencing.
The identified ciliary body proteins were functionally categorized based on subcellular localization, molecular function and biological processes by searching against the manually-curated Human Protein Reference Database (HPRD; http://www.hprd.org) [ 52].
The Drosophila gut and fat body, the latter functionally equivalent to mammalian liver and adipose, have an evolutionarily conserved function in aging (Fontana et al., 2010).
The ventrally localized DA9 cell body elaborates two functionally distinct processes.
