Sentence examples for degree of burial from inspiring English sources

Because of the low degree of burial, high porosities between 30%and50%0% are preserved (Yamamoto et al. 2005).

For geological disasters such as landslides and mud slides, it is possible to assign damage state based on whether the building structure has been damaged, the position relative to the geological disaster area, and the degree of burial.

According to MacDonald et al. (2001, 2005a, b), the shales of the Asu River Group are characterized by high transmissivity which is related to the degree of burial and low-grade metamorphism of the shale host rock.

Phosphorescence lifetime measurements, conducted on model proteins varying in the degree of burial of the triplet probe and in quaternary structure, show that dendrimers interact with proteins in solutions forming stable complexes in which the protein structure may be significantly altered, particularly in superficial, flexible regions of the polypeptide.

Most importantly, for a fixed degree of burial, residues from TM regions tend to evolve more slowly than residues from EM regions.

Recently, we constructed a large-scale, quantitative model relating residue evolutionary rate to degree of burial for yeast soluble proteins (Franzosa and Xia 2009).

Our degree-of-burial calculations are relatively insensitive to the precise nature of the solvent probe, provided that the same probe is used consistently for all residues.

This means that the systematic differences in evolutionary rates observed between TM and EM residues with similar degrees of burial are largely not driven by hydrophobicity.

Although it is true that TM regions contain a larger fraction of buried residues than EM regions (fig. 3 A), TM residues also evolve consistently more slowly than EM residues with similar degrees of burial (fig. 4).

RSA = 0 implies that the residue is completely buried, RSA = 1 implies that the residue is maximally exposed relative to other residues of the same type, and RSA values between 0 and 1 correspond to intermediate degrees of burial.

We quantified the degree of residue burial in our data set using RSA, as outlined in the Materials and Methods section.
