We further present evidence that these proteins represent the minimal catalytic unit of this class of polymerases and are likely to function as both primases and polymerases, like the previously characterized prim-pol proteins.
These predicted toxins display no associated immunity proteins suggesting that like the OTU domains of pathogens and endosymbionts, they are likely to function as DUBs that deubiquitinate eukaryotic target proteins [ 79].
Thus, PASKIN is likely to function as a mammalian PAS sensor protein.
Modern connectivity science approaches can help evaluate which proposed corridors are likely to function as intended, and which may need further refinement.
Bizelesin-targeted AT islands are likely to function as strong matrix attachment regions (MARs), domains that organize DNA loops on the nuclear matrix.
They are likely to function as a substitution for the hydrophobic core to preserve an optimal lower hinge conformation for the receptor binding.
The wildlife service report is likely to function as a road map for the Obama administration as it reviews the Bush administration's decisions on whether to add species to the endangered list or to protect habitat.
The present study found that CD4+ T cells showed clonal expansion much earlier than neutralising antibody production, indicating that before antibodies play an anti-CSFV role, T cells are most likely to function as a key factor.
In addition, aggregated proteins are likely to function as immunogenic substances, provoking undesired immune response during circulation in bloodstream.
Enterococci spp. are likely to function as a reservoir of drug resistance determinants and can serve as the springboard for the spread of these genes to other Gram-positive pathogens [73].
Indeed, our view is that the hagfish "eye" does not subserve a visual role but is instead likely to function as a circadian organ, as does the pineal organ.
