arXiv, 2010 This is my attempt to answer Schr\"odinger's question: "What is Life?". In living cell the local combination of atoms is reproduced with incredible accuracy. In the case of protein biosynthesis the notion of the physical aspect of the process can be qualitatively enriched by taking into account the symmetry of conformational oscillations.

Efficient biosynthesis of heterodimeric C3-aryl pyrroloindoline alkaloids
Nature Communications, 2018 The hexahydropyrrolo[2, 3-b]indole (HPI) framework is found in many natural products. Here, the authors discover a P450 enzyme and develop a whole-cell biocatalysis system that produces the HPI naseseazine C (NAS-C) and 30 NAS-C analogs, several of which

Rapid green biosynthesis of Silvermontmorillonite nanocomposite using water extract of Satureja hortensis L and evaluation of the antibacterial properties [PDF]
arXiv, 2017 In this work, facile, rapid and green biosynthesis and characterization of silvermontmorillonite nanocomposite is reported at room temperature. Silver nanoparticles were prepared by water extract of Satureja hortensis as the reducing agent and MMT as interlamellar space for controlling the size of Ag-NPs. MMT was suspended in the aqueous AgNO3 solution,

A comparative study of Gaussian Graphical Model approaches for genomic data [PDF]
, 2011 The inference of networks of dependencies by Gaussian Graphical models on high-throughput data is an open issue in modern molecular biology. In this paper we provide a comparative study of three methods to obtain small sample and high dimension estimates of partial correlation coefficients: the Moore-Penrose pseudoinverse (PINV), residual correlation ...

Regulation of Lignin Biosynthesis and Its Role in Growth-Defense Tradeoffs
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2018 Plant growth-defense tradeoffs are fundamental for optimizing plant performance and fitness in a changing biotic/abiotic environment. This process is thought to involve readjusting resource allocation to different pathways.
