This formulation can incorporate an extended role for leptin and is in keeping with a widening ergostatic function of additional adipokinetic hormones in energy homeostasis, as envisaged by Frühbeck and Gómez-Ambrosi (Frühbeck and Gómez-Ambrosi, 2001).
However, the probability of widening biological functions (neofunctionalisation) is expectedly lower than the chance of inactivation (pseudogenisation) [6], [7], [8] as most amino-acid replacements are more likely neutral or deleterious, rather than leading to any particular adaptive change.
In a 2009 CounterPunch article on health care reform, for instance, he expressed misgivings about legalized abortion, saying that it was "now widening in its function as a eugenic device".
Despite enormous improvements in 3-D structure determination methods and co-ordinated efforts on determining structures for proteins with unknown functions [ 2], the gap between known sequences and their function is widening.
We also explore the potential mechanisms through which macro-level factors function in widening income gaps among Chinese workers.
The problem among different SES groups of widening gaps in physical function with increasing age could be explained in the following two ways.
In other words, the spectrum of each subcarrier is convolved with a sinc function, thus widening the spectral overlapping regions with the other subcarrier spectra.
Observe that by widening the class of functions (mathcal {F}) in Definition 1.2, one can derive the following result which remains a metric-version of Theorem 3.1: Let (X, d) be a metric space and (f:Xrightarrow X) an extended F-weak contraction for some function (Fin mathbb {F}).
Both the levator symphysis gap and the levator hiatus, which is dependent on the puborectalis function, widen with increasing grade of prolapse.
Concomitantly, structural studies also uncovered several new versions of the β-GF in a variety of domains, greatly widening its horizon of biological functions.
