Actin-VDAC interactions are not a species-specific oddity and may be a more general phenomenon, the role of which ought to be further investigated [ 36].
Since very few examples of regulation of an mRNA by a naturally occurring antisense RNA had been described in eukaryotes, this form of regulation was generally considered a fascinating, but likely worm-specific, oddity.
To test whether this deactivation effect was specific to scene oddity, we conducted the same analysis for face deactivations against rest baseline (F < rest); this revealed no voxels in HC associated with either fornix MD or FA.
If the participants were also asked for their percept of fusion/fission as well as their oddity estimate (e.g., as in the audio-visual experiments [12], [13]), then the model makes some specific and surprising predictions for oddity detection rate as a function of whether a given trial was also perceived as fused or not.
It is worth noting that a few additional strains, some of which are apparently not closely related to S288c, were found to carry hybrid Ty1/2 elements, which indicates that Ty2 sequences hitchhiking Ty1 elements and thus enabling them to propagate is not just an oddity which is specific to S288c.
To cycling teams and their support staffs, this is less an Olympic oddity than a necessity specific to their sport.
Apple CEO Tim Cook took time on the company's earnings call today to comment on a specific rumor, which is an extreme oddity for Apple's top-tier executives.
"One single occurrence in almost 100 years of this oddity does not signify anything specific," said Joe Sirard, a meteorologist with the National Weather Service.
We ask, and seek for an earthquake, or at least a historical oddity or a series of highly specific causal events.
The oddity of the leaders' meeting was that the tone was so good, while the specific accomplishments were relatively modest.
