A new feature of 3-D reconnection is the natural presence of fast field-line slippage along the QSLs, a process called "slip-running reconnection".
After intercalation of PA12 into interlayer of OMMT in the initial period of mixing, further dispersion of OMMTs in PA12 matrices is controlled by a slippage process of MMT layers during fabricating PA12 nanocomposites with exfoliated structure.
However, especially after prolonged treatments, cells can escape this arrest in a process called mitotic slippage.
However, especially after prolonged treatments, cells may overcome the mitotic delay, even in the presence of the drug, and cycle into G1 without achieving cytokinesis, in a process named mitotic slippage [8], [9], [10], [11], [12].
Although the gene has a confirmed frame-shift mutation in a poly-adenosine tract towards the distal end of the gene, the full-length product could still be expressed through a process of transcriptional slippage [ 27, 28].
This can trigger cell death within mitosis, but cells can also exit mitosis without cytokinesis in a process called mitotic slippage, which is caused by progressive degradation of cyclin B during mitotic arrest (Brito and Rieder, 2006).
Tandem arrays are thought to evolve through a process of replication slippage during DNA synthesis or unequal crossing over during meiosis [ 9], a phenomenon conceptually consistent with the rapid evolution of mini-satellites and other highly repetitive regions in many genomes through mis-alignment [ 10].
One such example is Streisinger slippage, resulting in simple deletions by a process of looping out of one or more bases as the primer moves along a strand of reiterated template bases[ 28].
This results in the leakage of protons into the matrix and oxygen consumption in the absence of normal proton translocation across the inner mitochondrial membrane by Complexes I, III and IV, a process known as electron slippage.
These markers have advantages over high throughput SNP markers, because the majority of SNPs is bi-allelic and information (heterozygosity) generated is low, whereas SSR mutational rates are a lot higher and the DNA slippage process creates a number of new alleles leading to the generation of maximal information (Ellegren [2004]).
