Evolutionary cell biology: Functional insight from “Endless forms most beautiful” [PDF]
In animal and fungal model organisms, the complexities of cell biology have been analyzed in exquisite detail and much is known about how these organisms function at the cellular level.

Chemotaxis: a feedback-based computational model robustly predicts multiple aspects of real cell behaviour [PDF]
The mechanism of eukaryotic chemotaxis remains unclear despite intensive study. The most frequently described mechanism acts through attractants causing actin polymerization, in turn leading to pseudopod formation and cell movement.

A model of yeast glycolysis based on a consistent kinetic characterisation of all its enzymes [PDF]
peer reviewedWe present an experimental and computational pipeline for the generation of kinetic models of metabolism, and demonstrate its application to glycolysis in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Starting from an approximate mathematical model, we employ a

Peptides as multifunctional players in cancer therapy
Peptides exhibit lower affinity and a shorter half-life in the body than antibodies. Conversely, peptides demonstrate higher efficiency in tissue penetration and cell internalization than antibodies. Regardless of the pros and cons of peptides, they have

Molecular basis for SMC rod formation and its dissolution upon DNA binding. [PDF]
SMC condensin complexes are central modulators of chromosome superstructure in all branches of life. Their SMC subunits form a long intramolecular coiled coil, which connects a constitutive "hinge" dimerization domain with an ATP-regulated "head ...

Give me a SINE: how Selective Inhibitors of Nuclear Export modulate autophagy and aging
Autophagy is a cellular recycling process leading to lysosomal degradation of damaged macromolecules, which can protect cells against aging. The transcription factor EB (TFEB), a major transcriptional regulator of genes involved in autophagy and ...
