Like "The Life Aquatic," it functions on the principle that messed-up families are funny, but only by a whisker.
This approach functions on the principle that the genome sequences of abundant species will be well represented in a set of random shotgun reads, whereas species with lower abundance may be represented by a small number of sequences, thus permitting the comprehensive measurement of the response of an ecosystem to an environmental perturbation or therapeutic intervention.
Microarrays function on the principle of complementary hybridization between nucleic acids (A → T and G → C) and take advantage of the knowledge of the human genome sequence [ 1].
An arrangement that functions on the principles of four bar linkage with a sliding and rotating pair was devised.
The Sino-Russian partnership functions on the principle of mutual convenience.
NCX functions on the principle of removal of a single calcium ion and import of three sodium ions in exchange (Yu and Choi 1997).
Recently, we have reported characterization of both rheological and electrokinetic properties of high-concentrated α-Al2O3 [4, 12] and Al2O3-ZrO2 [40] ceramic suspensions by using a new type of anionic dispersant Dolapix CE64 (Zschimmer & Schwarz GmbH Co., Germany) functioning on the principle of electrosteric stabilization.
Archaea and bacteria have evolved diverse, elaborate antivirus defense systems that function on two general principles: i) immune systems that discriminate self DNA from nonself DNA and specifically destroy the foreign, in particular viral, genomes, whereas the host genome is protected, or ii) programmed cell suicide or dormancy induced by infection.
Given that in eukaryotic RNAi systems, the PAZ domain binds a guide RNA and positions it on the complementary region of the target, we further speculate that pAgos function on a similar principle (the guide being either DNA or RNA), and that the uncharacterized domain found in putative operons with the short forms of pAgos is a functional substitute for the PAZ domain.
Properties of information diffusion estimators on probability density functions confirm that the principle is true.
