The precise regulatory mechanisms through which ethanol alters DNA methylation and histone modifications and, consequently, gene expression are only beginning to be elucidated.
Such sequence polymorphism found in KRTAP gene members may influence its expression, protein structure, and/or post-translation modifications and consequently effect wool/hair fibre structure and wool/hair quality traits [ 92, 23, 93].
The aim of the study was to determine the effect of hail net covering on microclimatic conditions, specifically on light interception and temperature modification and, consequently, on the chemical profile of bean pods harvested in two sizes.
Frame shift modifications may result in unquestionable protein sequence modification and consequently altered or null functional characteristics.
Lysine-specific demethylase 1 downregulates the expression of CDH-1 by epigenetic modification, and consequently promotes metastasis of colon cancer cells.
Hence, Weisuobuzhi could maintain normal cell wall synthesis, remodelling and modification, and consequently have the capacity to accumulate much higher Cd at the cell wall, therefore reducing Cd toxicity to the cytoplasm.
Like UVB, cisplatin introduces base modifications on DNA and consequently similar physiological responses.
Gliotoxin, a non-ribosomally synthesised peptide produced by Aspergillus fumigatus and related fungi, is redox-active, depletes cellular glutathione (GSH), causes DNA damage and protein modification, and is consequently capable of inhibiting mammalian, fungal and bacterial cell growth [ 1– 5].
Many groups have been making efforts to promote chemical modifications of its structure and, consequently, add new characteristics.
In almost all cases, proteins may be phosphorylated on different residues and their properties altered, leading to activation or down-regulation of their activities, modification of subcellular localization stabilities, and consequently alteration of their functions [ 17].
Lime-cement mortars are used for repairing building walls, improving thermal and acoustic performance through the modification of their composition and, consequently, their microstructure and properties.
