Therefore both genetic variants may lead to alterations in the TRAIL-binding domain and thus alter DR4 affinity for TRAIL.
Nutrient addition can affect the structure and diversity of grassland plant communities, thus alter the grassland productivity.
Local forestry practice interacting with climate thus alter N P stoichiometry of Sphagnum along the N deposition gradient.
Both these shear stresses modify the structure of the dislocation core and thus alter both the Peierls barrier and the related Peierls stress.
Changes in the fermentation temperature and scale, however, can influence the properties of the protein and thus alter partition coefficient and yield.
Protonation and de-protonation has been experimentally shown to change protein structure and thus, alter protein-protein binding affinity, change protein stability, modify protein function, and alter subcellular localization (Schonichen et al., 2013b).
Instead, they have a portfolio of mindsets, and each one — as well as the overall mix, which varies from person to person — influences a leader's decisions and behaviors and can thus alter the direction, focus, and performance of the organization.
Material removal by a laser beam produces propagating changes in geometry that decrease the structural stiffness and thus alter continuously the vibration response of the structure being processed, as the machining advances.
Five of the six tested PAs thus alter lipid bilayer properties at experimentally relevant concentrations, which becomes important for the design and analysis of fluorescence studies in cells and model membrane systems.
But halfway through the blasting, the Thai government has suspended the project, for fear that the faster flow of an unimpeded current would increase erosion and thus alter the midstream boundary with Laos.
By adding a citizen question to the census, the federal government may scare off residents from participating, and thus alter the results; that, in turn, could short-change future federal funding, and, if it caused district lines to be redrawn, cost Democrats congressional seats.
