Another cheW gene (Cbei_3954), on the other hand, exhibited an unexpected antagonistic pattern, which was strongly expressed throughout the entire stationary phase and peaked at time point F. The other chemotaxis genes were not active over the course of the fermentation process.
Another cheW gene (Cbei_3954) exhibited an unexpected antagonistic pattern, which was highly expressed after the cell culture entered stationary phase and reached maximum finally in both reactors.
While dynamics of the transcriptional regulation responsible for gender-biased expression are of interest to developmental biologists, genes with sex-biased expression are also of interest to evolutionary biologists in light of the antagonistic selection patterns underlying such traits.
For example, 2 antagonistic pattern-forming substances have been shown to be involved in the generation of the oral aboral axis in sea urchins (Duboc et al. 2004), and in mouse hair follicle formation (Mou et al. 2006).
Body fat was related to heterozygosity at two nuclear loci (with antagonistic patterns), one of which is situated near a known fat metabolism gene in mammals.
For example, evidence from Drosophila melanogaster indicates that while the vast majority of gene transcripts are sex-biased, only a minority of these show sexually antagonistic patterns of expression [ 34], indicating conflict resolution may be widespread at least in adult stages.
Together with the results of the deviating antagonistic activity patterns of quadriceps/hamstrings- and tibialis/gastrocnemius ratio within the injured as compared to the non-injured sides in the present study, adaptive changes in sensorimotor control certainly cannot be excluded.
This pervasive pattern indicates that the antagonistic network has been shaped by both phylogeny on resource range and by exploitative competition limiting resource overlap among closely related consumer species.
The epithelial-associated expression pattern of Msi genes and the antagonistic relation between Msi and Jag1 prompted the hypothesis that Msi activation promotes an epithelial cell identity, effectively blocking EMT.
Additionally, the antagonistic role of GA is further confirmed by the expression pattern of GA receptors, namely GID1, being contrary to ABA receptors in the DS and SS samples.
