Of course, a high score on a test is hardly the only factor important for a successful career in science, and no one claims that the right-tail disparity is the sole reason for the relatively low number of female professors in math-oriented sciences.
These results suggest that the level of trehalose accumulation may be another factor important for tolerance to several environmental stresses, particularly protein damage-inducing stresses.
Gene expression analyses indicate that HGF coating enhanced osteoblast differentiation as demonstrated by increased runx2 (a transcription factor important for osteoblast lineage and differentiation), alkaline phosphatase (marker of mid stage differentiation) and osteocalcin (marker of late stage differentiation) mRNA levels.
The next factor important for the differences in the summary measures was the gap between countries with both high life expectancy and low dispersion of ages at death (e.g. Northern European countries) versus countries with both low life expectancy and high dispersion (e.g. Eastern Europe).
RpoS is an alternative sigma factor important for stationary phase survival and stress resistance.
Alternatively, the two terminal regions may play redundant roles in mediating the interaction between Gli2 and a factor important for Gli2 localization.
FOXP2 is a transcription factor important for some neuronal functions including reflex, development of cerebellum, developmental disorders, and is implicated in schizophrenia.
Myc directly regulates TFAM, a transcription factor important for mitochondrial transcription and mitochondrial DNA replication [21], as well as PGC-1β, a regulator of mitochondrial biogenesis [37].
C/EBP α is a basic region/leucine zipper transcription factor important for the transcription of most adipocyte genes and of other genes involved in energy metabolism [32].
Moreover, the V-antigen multifunctional virulence factor important for type III secretion system activity is expressed by the nlpD mutant during infection as reflected by development of αV antibodies following immunization of mice (Table 3 and 4).
Similarly, high miR-137 expression in melanoma cell lines down-regulates microphthalma associated transcription factor (MITF), a transcription factor important for melanocyte cell growth, maturation, apoptosis, and pigmentation [32].
