Meanings of functional redundancy in English

Genes with similar structure were classified into the same group, implying their functional redundancy.

Here, we demonstrate high levels of functional redundancy among the KDACs that are important for regulating Hsp90 function.

By their interaction with IgG immune complexes, FcγR and complement link innate and adaptive immunity, showing functional redundancy.

The outcome of this study provides evidence for functional redundancy among tomato homolog genes involved in powdery mildew susceptibility.

Loss-of-function mutations in several RTFL genes were aphenotypic, suggesting that there may be some functional redundancy between family members.

In the normal digestive tract, their pattern of expression from tongue to colon is quite similar, which suggests functional redundancy.

However, deciphering the physiological relevance of Endo-apyrases activity has actually proved difficult, owing to their complexity and the functional redundancy within the family.

For instance, many system properties support robustness through functional redundancy or through response diversity with responses regulated by competitive exclusion and cooperative facilitation.

Here, we synthesize the powerful paradigm emerging from these two patterns, connecting the roles of function, functional redundancy and taxonomy in microbial systems.

This has been explained by functional redundancy for bacterial and fungal avr determinants, with other molecules compensating for the deletion of these essential genes.

Compensational expression alters the steady-state mRNA levels among the remaining BT family members when other BT members are lost, and this contributes towards functional redundancy.

While this may be in part related to functional redundancy between these pathways, it is now clear that other Ras effectors have key oncogenic roles.

These inhibitors did not interfere with the normal cellular function of furin because of the likely functional redundancy existing between furin and other proprotein convertases.

As previously observed for CCR5, there seems to be a certain functional redundancy between domains supporting the coreceptor activity of CCR3.

In addition, we found that EPAS1 and HIF1alpha transcripts were often colocalized, suggesting a functional redundancy of these two transcription factors during development.

These data demonstrate that Gadd45gamma is not essential for normal mouse development and hematopoiesis, possibly due to functional redundancy among the Gadd45 family members.
