Aggregation is a Context-Dependent Constraint on Protein Evolution

open access: yesFrontiers in Molecular Biosciences, 2021
Solubility is a requirement for many cellular processes. Loss of solubility and aggregation can lead to the partial or complete abrogation of protein function. Thus, understanding the relationship between protein evolution and aggregation is an important

A computational model of texture segmentation [PDF]

open access: yes, 1988
An algorithm for finding texture boundaries in images is developed on the basis of a computational model of human texture perception. The model consists of three stages: (1) the image is convolved with a bank of even-symmetric linear filters followed by ...

MetaboTools: A comprehensive toolbox for analysis of genome-scale metabolic models [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Metabolomic data sets provide a direct read-out of cellular phenotypes and are increasingly generated to study biological questions. Our previous work revealed the potential of analyzing extracellular metabolomic data in the context of the metabolic ...

Molecular bases of circadian magnesium rhythms across eukaryotes

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Circadian rhythms in intracellular [Mg2+] exist across eukaryotic kingdoms. Central roles for Mg2+ in metabolism suggest that Mg2+ rhythms could regulate daily cellular energy and metabolism. In this Perspective paper, we propose that ancestral prokaryotic transport proteins could be responsible for mediating Mg2+ rhythms and posit a feedback model ...

Synthesis of Silver Colloids: Experiment and Computational Model

open access: yes, 2008
We summarize our recent results that model the formation of uniform spherical silver colloids prepared by mixing iso-ascorbic acid and silver-amine complex solutions in the absence of dispersants.

Tinnitus with a Normal Audiogram: Physiological Evidence for Hidden Hearing Loss and Computational Model

open access: yesJournal of Neuroscience, 2011
Ever since Pliny the Elder coined the term tinnitus, the perception of sound in the absence of an external sound source has remained enigmatic. Traditional theories assume that tinnitus is triggered by cochlear damage, but many tinnitus patients present ...

Interplay between circadian and other transcription factors—Implications for cycling transcriptome reprogramming

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
This perspective highlights emerging insights into how the circadian transcription factor CLOCK:BMAL1 regulates chromatin architecture, cooperates with other transcription factors, and coordinates enhancer dynamics. We propose an updated framework for how circadian transcription factors operate within dynamic and multifactorial chromatin landscapes ...

Mechanisms of parasite‐mediated disruption of brain vessels

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Parasites can affect the blood vessels of the brain, often causing serious neurological problems. This review explains how different parasites interact with and disrupt these vessels, what this means for brain health, and why these processes matter. Understanding these mechanisms may help us develop better ways to prevent or treat brain infections in ...

A computational model of evolution: haploidy versus diploidy [PDF]

open access: yes, 1999
In this paper, the study of diploidy is introduced like and important mechanism for memory reinforcement in artificial environments where adaptation is very important.

Development and validation of a computational model of the knee joint for the evaluation of surgical treatments for osteoarthritis

open access: yesComputer Methods in Biomechanics and Biomedical Engineering, 2014
A three-dimensional (3D) knee joint computational model was developed and validated to predict knee joint contact forces and pressures for different degrees of malalignment.
