It highlights major trends in the evolution of multicellular complexity in the social amoebas, and correlates these trends with elaboration of function of deeply conserved cAMP signalling genes.
A major research challenge for the decade will be the elaboration of miRNA function in biology and the investigation of how microRNAs can be exploited for therapeutic application.
These data demonstrate that there is an equivalent antigenic encounter and elaboration of cytotoxic function by MPECs and SLECs in vivo.
In the words of the psychoanalyst Adam Phillips, it's the "imaginative elaboration of physical functions".
His elaboration of the functions and types of veils -- structural, literary, economic and psychological -- inherent in the new design was remarkably deft.
I think the fact that you see that both the diversification of the important NTPase families and the elaboration of cytoskeletal functions seem to be universal among eukaryotes means that probably those things happened relatively quickly.
As Greene, Caracelli and Graham (1989) explain, complementarity function "seeks elaboration, enhancement, illustration, clarification of the results from one method with the results from the other method" (p. 259).
The first- and second-generation heterotetrameric miniproteins described here will be useful as simple models for the analysis of protein-protein interaction specificity and as structural platforms for the further elaboration of folding and function.
The key to formulating multi-consumer, multi-resource systems developed in the previous sections is through the elaboration of the extraction function given in Eq. 6 to multi-consumer-resource settings, as described in [21], [38].
These differences include innate and acquired immunity, immune cell numbers and function, cytokine elaboration and the inflammatory response.
