Indeed, the prevalence of syncytia in eukaryotes, and the difficulties of explaining them using prevailing models, is an argument for the need for a new cell theory to better accommodate cells in which multiple nuclei share a single plasma membrane [ 15, 161].
The prevailing model is that of a client, usually a PC, and a server, a powerful computer elsewhere on the network.
A prevailing model is that environmental stress activates mRNA interferases, which then cleave messages to redirect gene expression in response to the applied stress.
A prevailing model is that temporal features, particularly relevant for speech analysis, are processed in the left hemisphere whereas spectral features, important for tonal analysis, are processed in the right [30].
One prevailing model is that a class of regulatory T cells that originate in the thymus, are self-reactive and are involved in protection from autoimmune responses [ 5].
The prevailing model is that these molecular assemblies then act as a "molecular corselet" that limits isometric egg chamber growth to promote A-P elongation.
The prevailing model is that TrAP lowers the reservoir of transferable methyl groups by targeting ADK, a key enzyme in the SAM pathway.
The prevailing model is that first, either two dimers, each with one copy of H3 and H4, or one tetramer that contains two copies each of histones H3 and H4, are loaded onto DNA.
Previous analyses of genetic regulators of methylation and expression levels have revealed three-way causal relationships, where the prevailing model is one in which genetic variation influences methylation that in turn influences expression levels.
But contrary to Prof Thomas's apparent view that there should be no interpretations, only "facts", we suspect that "interpretative phylogeography" will still have a central role to play, even as prevailing models are challenged once again.
Given this, the prevailing model of NSD is that a stalled ribosome at the 3′ end of the mRNA is recognized by the Ski7 protein, which then recruits the Ski2/ Ski3/ Ski8 complex and the exosome to degrade the mRNA in a 3′ to 5′ direction.
