It's nearly a messenger bag-briefcase hybrid, offering the best of both worlds: internal compartmentalization with the look and feel of something a bit more contemporary.
In meander belts that act as hydrocarbon reservoirs, characteristics of sedimentary architecture, including the geometry of point-bar elements and the internal compartmentalization exerted by the presence of mud-prone abandoned channel fills, control the effectiveness of primary and enhanced hydrocarbon recovery.
Polarized epithelial tissues provide a] barriers against external environments and compartmentalization of internal organs, and b] regulation of glandular secretions and movement of fluid and ions across these compartments.
Reservoirs encountered in GC955 exhibit thin-bedded internal structure and complex fault compartmentalization. Two wells drilled in the Alaminos Canyon 21 site tested a large, shallow, sand unit within the Diana mini-basin that exhibits steep lateral margins, non-sinuous elongate form, and flat base with hummocky upper surface.
Compartmentalization allows unique internal microenvironments, permits harvestable energy gradients, provides organizational structure, protects the cell, and more.
This is the first demonstration of the process of compartmentalization in a tubular internal structure.
There is simply no way to make a large cell functional (without an inert internal space) other than developing elaborate intracellular compartmentalization, that is...becoming a eukaryote (or at least "eukaryote-like").
AtIRT2 is an iron transporter and localized to intracellular vesicles, suggesting an essential role in preventing metal toxicity through compartmentalization and remobilize iron stores from internal storage vesicles [ 40].
Internal mechanisms include chelation of Al in the cytosol, compartmentalization in the vacuole, Al-binding proteins, Al tolerant enzyme isoforms, and elevated enzyme activity [4], [13].
However, given the growing evidence for membrane compartmentalization at both the plasma membrane and internal organelles [6], [42], [43], we propose that the spatial stochastic model will more accurately predict the outcomes of events that take place between membrane proteins and lipids and their cytosolic binding partners.
Its external expression in the membrane of the basal epithelial cells comprising the neoplastic mass of the carcinoma vs. its internal localization within the papillary fibrovascular core exemplifies the possible involvement of intracellular compartmentalization of gene expression in the determination of tumor phenotypes.
