Sentence examples for pressure adaptations from inspiring English sources

Linear relationships between such adaptations and the depth of capture in marine fish, from shallow to > 4500 m, have been interpreted as causal evidence for pressure adaptations (Cossins & Macdonald, 1986; Samerotte et al., 2007).

The majority of previous pressure adaptation experiments have been undertaken using LDH, which is a well characterised enzyme, including the first reports [7], [8] that highlighted that enzymes from deep-living organisms may be pressure adapted.

Our study has shown that pressure adaptation, either resulting from natural selection or by artificial manufacture, can be mediated by different amino acid substitutions and we highlight the substitution of lysines and methionines, of which five out of six substitutions occur in the pressure stabilizing N-terminal part of the enzyme, as possible key residues in pressure stability.

In addition to these six genes, others could perform an important role in high pressure adaptation.

The deep-sea bacterium Photobacterium profundum is an established model for studying high pressure adaptation.

We have expanded and strengthened the role of ToxR in high pressure adaptation.

Genome-wide studies have already identified a number of biological processes involved in high pressure adaptation [ 12].

To better understand high pressure adaptation from a genomic point of view three different Photobacterium profundum strains were compared.

As previously found [ 7] these results reflect the fundamental role of transport process in high pressure adaptation.

Proteins encoded by these genes have very different biological functions and this may reflect the complexity of high pressure adaptation.

Some of these genes are upregulated under high pressure conditions possibly suggesting their involvement in high pressure adaptation of P. profundum [ 30].
