Functional Diversity of Laminins

Annual Review of Cell and Developmental Biology, 2012
Laminins are a large family of conserved, multidomain trimeric basement membrane proteins that contribute to the structure of extracellular matrix and influence the behavior of associated cells, such as adhesion, differentiation, migration, phenotype stability, and resistance to anoikis.

Phyllosphere microbiome: Diversity and functions

Microbiological Research, 2022
Phyllosphere or aerial surface of plants represents the globally largest and peculiar microbial habitat that inhabits diverse and rich communities of bacteria, fungi, viruses, cyanobacteria, actinobacteria, nematodes, and protozoans. These hyperdiverse microbial communities are related to the host's specific functional traits and influence the host's ...

Plant Functional Group Diversity Promotes Soil Protist Diversity

Protist, 2003
We tested whether effects of plant diversity can propagate through food webs, down to heterotrophic protists not linked directly to plants. To this end we synthesised grassland ecosystems with varying numbers of plant functional groups (FGN) and assessed corresponding changes in testate amoebae communities. The number of plant species was kept constant.

Functional Diversity

2012
There is increasing evidence to support a gene economy model that is fully based on the principles of evolution in which a limited number of proteins does not necessarily reflect a finite number of biochemical processes. The concept of 'gene sharing' proposes that a single protein can have alternate functions that are typically attributed to other ...

Diverse CD1d-restricted T cells: diverse phenotypes, and diverse functions

Seminars in Immunology, 2000
Invariant CD1d-restricted T cells express NK cell markers and use a limited TCR repertoire. Here, we describe a second CD1d-restricted T cell subset that uses a diverse TCR repertoire. These T cells can also express NK cell markers and function similarly to invariant T cells. The antigens recognized by the diverse subset are likely to be different from

Functional diversity of compound libraries

Current Opinion in Chemical Biology, 2000
The ideal designed screening library should contain compounds with a variety of structural shapes and molecular properties, while avoiding redundancies. Other requirements involve the need to find structurally distinct leads and to recognise drug-like molecules. Functional diversity analysis is one way in which these objectives can be achieved.

Functional Diversity Indices

2011
Functional diversity may be summarized using indices based on trait values and species importance in the community, like abundance, cover and biomass. This chapter includes taxonomy of the indices based upon the information they used and the output they offer.

Introducing Functional Diversity

2022
The question how we can reliably estimate the lexical diversity of a particular text (collection) has often been asked by linguists and literary scholars alike. This short paper introduces a way of operationalizing functional diversity measurements by means of token-based embeddings, and argues that functional diversity is not only a practically ...
