In order to investigate the regulatory and gene expression networks involved during ZE and SE maturation in cacao, we characterized gene expression profiles using whole genome microarrays.
Based on the optimal gel composition within GSs on the comparative results for the degrees of retraction, we characterized the maturation of microvascular networks within FGSs over the course of 14 days using the protocol previously described.
Since mutations synthetic lethal with rps15-1 were identified in NHP2 and UTP15, two genes coding for proteins known to have a role in the early steps of pre-RNA maturation, we sought to characterize the rRNA sub-cellular distribution in the double mutant strains to understand the origin of the synthetic lethal relationship.
To investigate the interplay between phagosomal maturation and calcineurin activation, we first characterized the maturation process of AF-containing phagosomes.
Grain filling and ripening or maturation stage is characterized by grain growth (Yoshida and Nagota 2011).
We describe the phenology of seed development and maturation, characterize seed germinability and desiccation tolerance during seed development and on shedding, and investigate embryo elongation pre- and post-shedding in order to test the hypothesis that seed development and maturation are complete prior to dispersal.
During the third step, Ti3O5 is missing and the primary carbide enters a maturation step characterized by carbon enrichment, attested by an increase in its cell parameter.
Immature DCs possess high phagocytic activity that triggers a complex maturation process characterized by upregulation of various surface molecules including class II MHC, CD80, CD83, CD86 and CD40 that enable antigen presentation and interaction with T cells.
Diekman's maturation was characterized by two parents that were equally loving, but embodied a stark juxtaposition in terms of demeanor.
Upon pathogen recognition, a signaling cascade initiates the DC maturation process, characterized by the upregulation of MHC class II and co-stimulatory molecules.
