Controlling complex dynamical systems based on the structure of the networks

open access: yesBiophysics and Physicobiology, 2023
Progress of molecular biology resulted in the accumulation of information on biomolecular interactions, which are complex enough to be termed as networks.

Efficient inference of parsimonious phenomenological models of cellular dynamics using S-systems and alternating regression

open access: yes, 2014
The nonlinearity of dynamics in systems biology makes it hard to infer them from experimental data. Simple linear models are computationally efficient, but cannot incorporate these important nonlinearities.

Structural instability impairs function of the UDP‐xylose synthase 1 Ile181Asn variant associated with short‐stature genetic syndrome in humans

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The Ile181Asn variant of human UDP‐xylose synthase (hUXS1), associated with a short‐stature genetic syndrome, has previously been reported as inactive. Our findings demonstrate that Ile181Asn‐hUXS1 retains catalytic activity similar to the wild‐type but exhibits reduced stability, a looser oligomeric state, and an increased tendency to precipitate ...

Selection on Network Dynamics Drives Differential Rates of Protein Domain Evolution. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Genetics, 2016
The long-held principle that functionally important proteins evolve slowly has recently been challenged by studies in mice and yeast showing that the severity of a protein knockout only weakly predicts that protein's rate of evolution.

The (Glg)ABCs of cyanobacteria: modelling of glycogen synthesis and functional divergence of glycogen synthases in Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
We reconstituted Synechocystis glycogen synthesis in vitro from purified enzymes and showed that two GlgA isoenzymes produce glycogen with different architectures: GlgA1 yields denser, highly branched glycogen, whereas GlgA2 synthesizes longer, less‐branched chains.

Graphical criteria for positive solutions to linear systems

open access: yes, 2017
We study linear systems of equations with coefficients in a generic partially ordered ring $R$ and a unique solution, and seek conditions for the solution to be nonnegative, that is, every component of the solution is a quotient of two nonnegative ...

Structural biology of ferritin nanocages

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Ferritin is a conserved iron‐storage protein that sequesters iron as a ferric mineral core within a nanocage, protecting cells from oxidative damage and maintaining iron homeostasis. This review discusses ferritin biology, structure, and function, and highlights recent cryo‐EM studies revealing mechanisms of ferritinophagy, cellular iron uptake, and ...

Control of multilayer biological networks and applied to target identification of complex diseases

open access: yesBMC Bioinformatics, 2019
Background Networks have been widely used to model the structures of various biological systems. The ultimate aim of research on biological networks is to steer biological system structures to desired states by manipulating signals.
