Additionally, this shielded conformation may protect against nonspecific oxidation of the active site cysteine, which would inactivate the enzyme, or, alternatively, prevent premature docking and sequestration of substrate proteins.
We next tested whether the absence of alternative splice variants on protein level could be due to a low frequency or a low stability of alternatively spliced transcripts, which would both result in a low abundance of steady-state transcript levels.
Their chosen vehicle was the Iraq Oil Law, alternatively called Iraq Hydrocarbons Law, which would all but fully privatize Iraq's oil industry using Production Sharing Agreements (PSAs).
Alternatively, the effector function might be redundant, which would also explain the absence of fitness cost in the case of the effector being lost.
Alternatively, genetically engineered viruses could be generated, which would express several variant antigens or epitopes, thereby achieving a more cross-protective immunization.
Alternatively genetic mouse models could be generated which would knock-out the putative matreshka while leaving the parent RefSeq sequence intact, thus enabling phenotypic analysis.
Alternatively, Parliament has the power to dissolve itself, which would spur early elections.
Alternatively, the trajectory could reflect a deteriorating profile which would be more problematic.
Alternatively, the posterior mode could have been used, which would have resulted in the ICM algorithm [ 8, 9].
Alternatively, rapamycin may decrease cellular metabolism in anoxia, which would indicate that the effect of rapamycin was not due to its effects on respiration.
Alternatively ECG gating and frequency filtering has been suggested, which would allow acquisition of the perfusion components of the EIT signal without respiratory interference [ 4- 6].
