Sentence examples for divergent function from inspiring English sources

There is little precedent for what to expect, however, variation in pattern formation could be controlled by a number of cis-regulatory elements of a single gene, clusters of duplicated genes with divergent function, or clusters of non-paralogous but functionally-related genes.

Moreover, some duplicated paralogous genes showed divergent function in the evolutionary process, even though the reasons for expression divergence of the duplicated genes in many gene families remain unclear.

The differences in post-translational modifications might play important roles in divergent function of the new isoform.

Human epididymis protein 4 (HE4) is a member of the "four-disulfide core" family that comprises a heterogeneous group of small acid- and heat-stable proteins of divergent function.

Further, IRE1 and ATF6α are absent from T. brucei and the PERK ortholog is located at the flagellar pocket, suggesting divergent function [24].

Then, we demonstrate that Dmrt2b contributes to a divergent function in somitogenesis through Hedgehog pathway, because Dmrt2b knockdown reduces target gene expression of Hedgehog signaling, and also impairs slow muscle development and neural tube patterning through Hedgehog signaling.

Nevertheless, this high level of sequence divergence might underlie divergent functions between these orthologs.

Whether the duplicated NAC genes correspond to genetic redundancy or have evolved divergent functions remains to be further functionally characterized.

Unlike other plant type II PLP decarboxylases, plant AAADs have undergone additional functional evolution resulting in multiple paralogs with divergent functions [ 10].

This was not merely accidental, but stems from the radically divergent functions the two military institutions have exercised through their countries' recent history.

Distinct glycoforms on the IgG crystallizable fragment (Fc) dictate these divergent functions.
