Incompetent oocytes are deficient in the amount of mRNA necessary to promote nuclear and cytoplasmic maturation.
Because approximately 95% of all plant species are deficient in the amount of CO2 needed to operate at maximum efficiency, recent increases in CO2 have already stimulated plant growth, and projected future increases will continue to do so (e.g., Poorter 1993), with the degree of stimulation being at least potentially temperature dependent (Long 1991).
This is a disorder of the posterior pituitary gland in which it secretes the hormone vasopressin to the blood circulation in deficient amount.
In Arabidopsis lines overexpressing the floral abscission regulating gene IDA (INFLORESCENCE DEFICIENT IN ABSCISSION), large amounts of arabinogalactan protein (AGP) are deposited around abscission zones [ 29].
In the case of adrenal insufficiency this hormone is synthesized and secreted into the blood in deficient amount.
In a previous work, we have shown that mutants deficient in DRB2 accumulate higher amounts of p4-siRNAs [ 50], suggesting a role for this protein in the RdDM pathway.
For example, Fu et al. [ 92] showed that the cyclophilin AtCYP38 is required to stabilise thylakoid complexes in Arabidopsis: mutants deficient in CYP38 make normal amounts of photosystem structural components but these fail to assemble correctly and are turned over.
Purified proteins (gp91phox truncated forms or neutrophil cytochrome b558), 10 pmoles, were incubated with FAD (10 µM), MgCl2 (5 mM), GTPγs (40 µM), 300 µg of cytosol from either human neutrophils or EBV-B lymphocytes (control or deficient in p67phox), and an optimum amount of AA (20 mM in EtOH) in PBS.
Mice containing DC deficient in Opn-i produced excessive amounts of IL-27 and developed a delayed disease characterized by an enhanced Th1 response compared with the dominant Th17 response of Opn-sufficient mice.
Brown et al. (1998) described that rotifers fed with microalgae (e.g., Isochrysis sp. and N. oculata) become rapidly enriched with ascorbic acid (AsA), whereas rotifers fed on baker's yeast (which itself is deficient in AsA) contained only residual amounts of AsA.; after 16 h of starving, rotifers lost ca. 10%% of their AsA, while retaining ca. 50 % of the total AsA ingested.
CD4+ T cells are shown to be involved in mediating the TSS, but the mice deficient in IL-2 have comparable amounts of CD4+ T cells and CD8+ T cells, which proliferate more than WT T cells indicating that there could be some other mechanism of TSS induction.
