Constructing and visualizing chemical reaction networks from pi-calculus models [PDF]

open access: yesFormal Aspects of Computing, 2013
Abstract The π -calculus, in particular its stochastic version the stochastic π -calculus, is a common modeling formalism to concisely describe the chemical reactions occurring in biochemical systems.

The planar cell polarity protein Vangl2 interacts with the PDZ‐domains of Scribble but not with a unique PDZ‐like domain in Inturned

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Structural and biochemical characterisations show that the planar cell polarity (PCP) protein Inturned harbours a unique PDZ‐like domain that does not bind canonical PDZ‐binding motifs (PBMs) like that of another PCP protein Vangl2. In contrast, the apical‐basal polarity protein Scribble contains four PDZ domains that bind Vangl2, but one PDZ domain ...

Atmospheric reaction systems as null-models to identify structural traces of evolution in metabolism. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2011
The metabolism is the motor behind the biological complexity of an organism. One problem of characterizing its large-scale structure is that it is hard to know what to compare it to. All chemical reaction systems are shaped by the same physics that gives

Structural insights into an engineered feruloyl esterase with improved MHET degrading properties

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
A feruloyl esterase was engineered to mimic key features of MHETase, enhancing the degradation of PET oligomers. Structural and computational analysis reveal how a point mutation stabilizes the active site and reshapes the binding cleft, expading substrate scope.

Thermodynamics of random reaction networks. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2015
Reaction networks are useful for analyzing reaction systems occurring in chemistry, systems biology, or Earth system science. Despite the importance of thermodynamic disequilibrium for many of those systems, the general thermodynamic properties of ...

Gut microbiome and aging—A dynamic interplay of microbes, metabolites, and the immune system

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Age‐dependent shifts in microbial communities engender shifts in microbial metabolite profiles. These in turn drive shifts in barrier surface permeability of the gut and brain and induce immune activation. When paired with preexisting age‐related chronic inflammation this increases the risk of neuroinflammation and neurodegenerative diseases.

Disentangling CO Chemistry in a Protoplanetary Disk Using Explanatory Machine-learning Techniques

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Molecular abundances in protoplanetary disks are highly sensitive to the local physical conditions, including gas temperature, gas density, radiation field, and dust properties.

Valosin‐containing protein counteracts ATP‐driven dissolution of FUS condensates through its ATPase activity in vitro

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Biomolecular condensates formed by fused in sarcoma (FUS) are dissolved by high ATP concentrations yet persist in cells. Using a reconstituted system, we demonstrate that valosin‐containing protein (VCP), an AAA+ ATPase, counteracts ATP‐driven dissolution of FUS condensates through its D2 ATPase activity.

Investigations of Ultraviolet Spectral Approximations for Computing Photodissociation and Photoionization Reaction Rates

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal
The chemical composition of protoplanetary disks, especially in the molecular layer and above, is set by photoprocesses driven by stellar radiation fields.

Moment fitting for parameter inference in repeatedly and partially observed stochastic biological models.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
The inference of reaction rate parameters in biochemical network models from time series concentration data is a central task in computational systems biology.
