Operably Linked definition

Operably Linked means with reference to a juxtaposition of two (2) or more components (such as sequence elements), in which the components are arranged such that both components function normally and allow the possibility that at least one of the components can mediate a function that is exerted upon at least one of the other components. [***] provide illustrative non-limiting examples of the term “Operably Linked”. “Operable Linkage” shall have a correlative meaning.
Operably Linked means that the nucleic acids are placed in a functional relationship with another nucleic acid sequence. For example, DNA for a presequence or secretory leader is operably linked to DNA for a polypeptide if it is expressed as a preprotein that participates in the secretion of the polypeptide; a promoter or enhancer is operably linked to a coding sequence if it affects the transcription of the sequence; or a ribosome binding site is operably linked to a
