Phenotypic switching in gene regulatory networks [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2014
Significance Phenotypes of an isogenic cell population are determined by states of low and high gene expression. These are often associated with multiple steady states predicted by deterministic models of gene regulatory networks. Gene expression is, however, regulated via stochastic molecular interactions at transcriptional and translational

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 ...

Global gene network exploration based on explainable artificial intelligence approach.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2020
In recent years, personalized gene regulatory networks have received significant attention, and interpretation of the multilayer networks has been a critical issue for a comprehensive understanding of gene regulatory systems. Although several statistical

Optimal first-passage time in gene regulatory networks

open access: yes, 2014
The inherent probabilistic nature of the biochemical reactions, and low copy number of species can lead to stochasticity in gene expression across identical cells.

Organ‐specific redox imbalances in spinal muscular atrophy mice are partially rescued by SMN antisense oligonucleotides

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
We identified a systemic, progressive loss of protein S‐glutathionylation—detected by nonreducing western blotting—alongside dysregulation of glutathione‐cycle enzymes in both neuronal and peripheral tissues of Taiwanese SMA mice. These alterations were partially rescued by SMN antisense oligonucleotide therapy, revealing persistent redox imbalance as ...

Evolving Gene Regulatory Networks with Mobile DNA Mechanisms

open access: yes, 2013
This paper uses a recently presented abstract, tuneable Boolean regulatory network model extended to consider aspects of mobile DNA, such as transposons.

Deconstructing the pluripotency gene regulatory network [PDF]

open access: yesNature Cell Biology, 2018
Pluripotent stem cells can be isolated from embryos or derived by reprogramming. Pluripotency is stabilized by an interconnected network of pluripotency genes that cooperatively regulate gene expression. Here we describe the molecular principles of pluripotency gene function and highlight post-transcriptional controls, particularly those induced by RNA-

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.

Diversity and complexity in neural organoids

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Neural organoid research aims to expand genetic diversity on one side and increase tissue complexity on the other. Chimeroids integrate multiple donor genomes within single organoids. Self‐organising multi‐identity organoids, exogenous cell seeding, or enforced assembly of region‐specific organoids contribute to tissue complexity.

Using Boolean Networks to Model Post-transcriptional Regulation in Gene Regulatory Networks [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
In Gene Regulatory Networks research there is a considerable lack of tech- niques and tools to understand these networks from a System Biology point of view. The typical biological approach is to reconstruct a particular network from expression patterns,
