Again, for Additional files 9 & 10, genes were manually compiled into ontology groups pertinent to nectary development and function based upon functional analysis, TAIR annotations, and literature searches.
Finally, to assess whether changes in barrier function were dependent upon functional neutrophils, endothelial resistance was measured using paraformaldehyde fixed neutrophils.
This ability is a cognitive regulation function that fMRI studies in cigarette smokers show depends upon functional interaction between the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex and the ventral striatum (Kober et al. 2010).
All the genes that fell within this category did not meet the RPM selection criteria described in the Methods and did not have defined function when annotated; meaning that, many of them returned no hit upon functional annotation.
Upon functional loss of insulin producing islet β-cells, some patients with diabetes become dependent on life-long insulin supplementation therapy.
Like most of the other fadR mutants, the K113 strain can grow on C10 plates (Fig. 2A), and this fadR phenotype can be restored to that of the parental strain ymel upon functional complementation of a copy of wild-type fadR gene (Fig. 2A).
