This can minimize suspicions that the instructor is preferentially calling on certain students.
With the Gotoh approach, shorter insertions are preferentially called than longer insertions in a pairwise alignment due to the reduced number of nucleotide matches (i.e. positive scores) the longer the insertion is.
Other cells preferentially get the call for dealing with viruses (lymphocytes), or pathogenic bacteria (neutrophils).
For example, tracking (mentally or on paper) the personal characteristics of students (e.g., gender) called on to speak during class discussions can alert an instructor to unconscious tendencies to call preferentially on students of one gender.
In line with these genes, a gene called preferentially expressed antigen in melanoma (PRAME) was also scored in LNCaP and C4-2.
The lack or decrease in detectability of male-female paternal kin recognition is in line with our current finding of males not preferentially responding to calls of their female paternal kin.
One of the possible epigenetic mechanisms, which could be related to variation in gene expression, is methylation of cytosine, preferentially in so called CpG-islands of promoter regions [ 13, 14].
Offspring preferentially responded to adult calls that were similar to their parents' call.
In that study, less attractive males did not preferentially approach female-preferred calls, but males that were likely to win contests preferentially approached female-preferred calls.
In the cooperatively breeding long-tailed tit (Aegithalos caudatus), individuals distinguish kin from non-kin by their calls, and preferentially become helpers at the nests of relatives [ 109].
Several genes not previously known to be upregulated by hypoxia included Ribonuclease 4 RNAse4 3.1-fold, monocarboxylate transporter family member 4 (SLC16alsolso called MCT4), Preferentially expressed antigen of melanoma PRAME 4.9-fold and Importin Beta 3 4.1-fold.
