Mammalian prions are hypothesized to be self-propagating fibrillar or amyloid forms of PrP in which the ends of the propagating fibrils constitute the infectious entity and that the exponential rise in prion titre during disease progression is a consequence of fiber fragmentation [5], [35], [36].
In most general terms structure can be described by entities having attributes and relations between the entities: the attributes of the entities constitute the state of the system, the relations describe inter-dependencies between the attributes of related entities.
Parathyroid adenomas constitute the most common entity in primary hyperparathyroidism, and although recent advances have been made regarding the underlying genetic cause of these lesions, very little data on epigenetic alterations in this tumour type exists.
The C-terminal region comprising domain of unknown function 221 (DUF221) contains six predicted TM helices, therefore the AtCSC1 protein likely contains eight TM helices in total and may constitute the pore-forming entity of an ion channel.
Although we are unable to determine how social attributes (such as kinship) influence the response behavior in Guinea baboons, our findings lend support to the notion that the gang constitutes the social entity within the multilevel Guinea baboon society.
Structural elements are the entities that constitute the control room system, and the characteristics of the structural elements establish conditions for the design of artefacts as well as the behaviours and abilities of personnel.
The following entities constitute the epigenetic interface of the human genome: DNA methylation, histone modification, noncoding RNA (including microRNAs (miRs)), the nucleosome organization, and high-order chromatin structure.
As a consequence, depending on the types of fiat object part entities that constitute the fiat object part aggregate and their position and orientation within the aggregate, a fiat object part aggregate may be demarcated by portions of bona fide boundary and fiat boundaryimmat, but is necessarily always demarcated by some fiat boundarymat (Fig. 3D).
Modules, interface elements, variables and equations are called modeling entities and constitute the modular modeling concept.
Eventually, we obtain a set of graphs that involve only concrete entities, and constitute the alternative queries.
