These are the cases mentioned previously of the EDF pentapeptide of E. coli which is a functional element of glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase and the enterococcus pheromones, which anchor the propeptide to the membrane.
A central regulator for structural plasticity is the enzyme glycogen synthase kinase 3β (GSK3β), which is a target of many psychotropic drugs [ 8]: Long-term potentiation, which is a functional correlate of synaptic plasticity, leads to inhibition of GSK3β [ 56, 146], which in turn increases structural plasticity by destabilization and increased turnover of dendritic spines [ 140].
The cytoplasmic domain of the receptor contains a toll/IL-1 receptor (TIR) region, which is a functional part of the signaling cascade downstream of IL-1 receptors.
The results from the current study showed that overexpression of mir-21 could accelerate the formation of calcium nodule during osteogenesis differentiation, which is a functional marker of mineralization [ 35].
Homology is contrasted with analogy, which is a functional similarity of structure based not upon common evolutionary origins but upon mere similarity of use.
Below we will formulate Theorem 4.7, which is a functional analogue of Theorem 3.3.
We then tested whether mutant huntingtin played a role in cell motility, which is a functional marker of EMT.
Foraging success of visual predators on cryptic prey can be enhanced by distinctly coloured, active benthic taxa through unidirectional facilitation to the predators, which is a functional change of interspecific interaction caused by a third species.
The main responsibility for monitoring and reviewing progress in carrying out the Johannesburg decisions falls however with the UN Commission on Sustainable Development, which is a functional commission of the UNs Economic and Social Council (ECOSOC).
It is part of the AP-1 complex, which is a functional downstream target of the MAP kinase pathway that is commonly activated in melanoma [ 19].
