They argue that if the implications of the new technology would become visible only upon its wide distribution, for example in the form of product hazards, it would be too late to influence the then firmly established technology trajectory (for past hazards see [14]; for SB: [15]).
Because DISC1 is a multicompartmentalized protein, we first assessed the impact of a panel of such disease-associated amino acid substitutions upon its subcellular distribution.
For each of the 18 Neisseria strains listed in Table 1, the genomic sequence was compared to itself based upon its frequency distribution of 6-mers within a sliding window of 5,000 nucleotides.
Rigorous interpretation of any codon bias statistic depends upon knowledge of its distribution given expected synonymous codon usage frequencies.
The network model shows that the permeability of the porous medium is dependent upon its pore size distribution rather than an average pore size.
AChE exhibits a complex structural polymorphism depending upon its different cellular distribution, whose significance is highly intriguing [7].
While the first two species are easily recognizable on the basis of both their distinct phenotype and specific native range (Lake Ohrid), the classification of S. peristericus was based upon its very restricted distribution (see [ 18]).
Based upon its cross-species distribution, carnosine's primary physiological role in muscle appears to be as a pH buffer (Abe 2000; Harris et al. 2006), moderating the decline in intracellular pH with lactate accumulation during intense exercise, or exercise performed under hypoxia.
Hexastylis has been segregated based upon its entirely North American distribution, karyotype (Sugawara, 1981; Soltis, 1984), pollen morphology (Niedenberger, 2010), and several characteristics of flower morphology (Gaddy, 1987).
BC score is a numerical value that defines the quality of the probe based upon its base composition and distribution, with BC_1 being the best and BC_Poor the worst.
