The resulting framework, 'complex adaptive landscapes' (CAL), explicitly captures the reciprocal feedbacks and non-linear nature of interactions between components within and between system levels, and the consequent possibility of multiple functional states (alternate systems functioning).
This unique property, combined with the versatility and biocompatibility, makes our saccharide peptide hydrogels promising candidates for further investigation of combinatorial effects of multiple functional groups on controlling chondrocyte and other cellular function and behavior.
Large RNA molecules are often composed of multiple functional domains whose spatial arrangement strongly influences their function.
Controlled parallelism is introduced by way of multiple functional units.
These differences were accompanied by alterations in mRNA expression of multiple functional gene groups.
Recent studies have revealed the existence of multiple functional fates of neutrophils, which lead to different interactions with incoming bacteria (in red).
The merits of multiple functional and tailor-designed strategies make contributions to develop high-performance TiO2 anodes in sodium ion batteries.
Comparative transcriptomics analysis suggested that the AZFP in the mutant exerted beneficial effect by modulating the expression of multiple functional genes.
Thus, the ensemble automatically provides feature selection, and also, in the case of multiple functional (and non-functional) covariates, variable selection.
The presence of multiple functional variants of traits involved in activities such as feeding, reproduction, or the defense against predators is relatively uncommon within animal species.
