We observed subtle differences between the transcriptional assay and protein data which may be an effect of the specificity of the two readouts, and a PAK1 specific role for NF-kB activation in the nucleus [37].
Whether these diverse diseases reflect tissue-specific expression level of paraplegin and AFG3L2 (13) or different substrate specificity of the two proteases remain to be clarified.
The specificity of the two antibodies for different epitopes allowed the elimination of non specific bands and showed a prominent signal at the correct molecular weight.
Our results indicate that the specificity of the two enzymes is similar but not identical.
These results could indicate that the substrate specificity of the two Aminobacter sp. dihydropyrimidinases may be slightly different.
The specificity of the two antagonists used in this study has been tested extensively in vitro and the results are summarized in Table 1.
Therefore, we were unable to compare the sensitivity and specificity of the two sets of diagnostic criteria to diagnose MODS, using a gold standard.
Neither PriProET, nor MGB reacted with heterologous herpesviruses, indicating a high specificity of the two methods as novel tools for virus detection and identification.
These results demonstrate the specificity of the two compounds against the TRPV1 channel and suggest that the IS-induced up-regulation of c-fos was also due to a block of TRPV1.
Sensitivity and specificity of the two markers as indicators of an EDI higher than 60 g/day were calculated, with cut-off at 27 pg/mg (HEtG) and 2.5% (CDT).
The specificity of the two primers MO405 and MO404 used to amplify a 70 bp fragment of the 16S rRNA gene was demonstrated by using purified DNA from 30 strains, among 21 bacterial species including 22 reference strains.
