The analysis of the molecular, cellular and physiological processes triggered by both overexpressed and underexpressed genes revealed key gene networks.
34– 37 Further work is now required to characterize the molecular processes that trigger these unexpected endogenous mechanisms in the adult cerebellum, and to exploit the neurogenic and neuroprotective potential of these processes in pathological situations.
The processes triggered in the plant at molecular level and consequently the substances enriched in the galls vary slightly between cultivars and species of Brassica spp. (Ludwig-Muller et al., 2009).
This study provides novel insights into the molecular processes during the acquisition of long-term fear memories and those processes triggered by their selective recall.
Understanding such effects on the molecular level, which would involve characterizing both condition-specific and condition-independent regulatory patterns, is especially important when dealing with reversible growth arrest or with secondary metabolic processes triggered by nutrient limitation or starvation.
Through a functional genomic approach we gained insights into the underlying molecular processes which could trigger the different outcomes of these species-specific responses and consequently lead to increased toxin content in Alexandrium tamarense.
Reverse-pharmacokinetic methods (Brightman et al. 2006) can be used to predict oral doses that would be required to trigger molecular processes, for instance, based on half maximal inhibitory concentrations (IC50) for receptor binding from in vitro assays.
Although the role of NF-κB is central to many pathways triggered by pathogen recognition, the molecular processes that govern its activation are only partially elucidated.
This review summarises recent advances in cytokinin research ranging from transgenic alteration of CK biosynthetic, degradation and glucosylation activities and CK perception to detailed elucidation of molecular processes, in which CKs work as a trigger in model plants.
H2O2 is likely to be the primary signal closest to the original stimulus (chilling) providing the initial trigger for a cascade of molecular processes leading to an intricately interconnected gene expression circuitry [ 101, 102].
