The distribution displays large fluctuations, indicating that there are comparatively few long-lasting contacts and a multitude of brief contacts.
A granular assembly, containing a multitude of frictional contacts whose orientation is generally anisotropically distributed, exhibits various other typical features such as the nonassociated character of plastic strains.
Since a multitude of unique residue residue contacts facilitate the interactions, protein protein interaction sites prediction has become one of the most important and challenging problems of computational biology.
On one hand, the consideration of an arbitrary contact geometry implies that a multitude of individual arbitrarily-shaped contact zones appears, which can split and merge as a result of changes in the normal loading.
Determination of the actual contributions of crustal processes to petrogenesis requires a return to detailed field, experimental, and forensic petrologic studies of individual erupted basalt flows; of a multitude of cumulate gabbros and their contacts; and of upper-mantle outcrops.
When NPs enter the body, they will come into contact with a multitude of biological components in the bodily fluid before contacting the target cell.
The large number of scaffolding and signaling molecules identified at cell cell contacts and the multitude of physical interactions described so far among these proteins indicates that cell cell contact formation, the development of TJs from pAJs and the aquisition of membrane polarity is a highly dynamic process the complexity of which is still far from being completely understood.
While its takeoveRightNowghtNow and Endeca are pending, the company has completed the purchases of Datanomic, FatWire, Inquira, select intellectual property assets of Ndevr, Ksplice and Pillar Data Systems in 2011 alone.
From a functional point of view, these compounds can act in concert in a multitude of defensive roles, such as contact poisons, glues, anti-healants, repellents or alarm pheromones [for review see 1,6,8].
Our food may contact a multitude of microbes during its journey from farm or field to table.
