Integration of a Phosphatase Cascade with the MAP Kinase Pathway provides for a Novel Signal Processing Function [PDF]
We mathematically modeled the receptor-activated MAP kinase signaling by incorporating the regulation through cellular phosphatases. Activation induced the alignment of a phosphatase cascade in parallel with the MAP kinase pathway.

Shear stress induces endothelial-to-mesenchymal transition via the transcription factor Snail
Blood flow influences atherosclerosis by generating wall shear stress, which alters endothelial cell (EC) physiology. Low shear stress induces dedifferentiation of EC through a process termed endothelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EndMT).

Metabolic modeling and analysis of the metabolic switch in Streptomyces coelicolor [PDF]
Background The transition from exponential to stationary phase in Streptomyces coelicolor is accompanied by a major metabolic switch and results in a strong activation of secondary metabolism.

Kernel methods for in silico chemogenomics
Predicting interactions between small molecules and proteins is a crucial ingredient of the drug discovery process. In particular, accurate predictive models are increasingly used to preselect potential lead compounds from large molecule databases, or to

Interspecies DNA acquisition by a naturally competent Acinetobacter baumannii strain [PDF]
The human pathogen Acinetobacter baumannii possesses high genetic plasticity and frequently acquires antimicrobial resistance genes. Here we investigated the role of natural transformation in these processes. Genomic DNA from different sources, including

Genome-driven evolutionary game theory helps understand the rise of metabolic interdependencies in microbial communities [PDF]
Metabolite exchanges in microbial communities give rise to ecological interactions that govern ecosystem diversity and stability. It is unclear, however, how the rise of these interactions varies across metabolites and organisms.
