Sustained oscillations in the MAP kinase cascade [PDF]
The MAP kinase cascade is a network of enzymatic reactions arranged in layers. In each layer occurs a multiple futile cycle of phosphorylations. The fully phosphorylated substrate then serves as an enzyme for the layer below. This papers focusses on the existence of parameters for which Hopf bifurcations occur and generate periodic orbits.

Overview of Current Type I/II Kinase Inhibitors [PDF]
Research on kinase-targeting drugs has made great strides over the last 30 years and is attracting greater attention for the treatment of yet more kinase-related diseases. Currently, 42 kinase drugs have been approved by the FDA, most of which (39) are Type I/II inhibitors.

Molecular components of PAMP-triggered oxidative burst in plant immunity [PDF]
Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are important molecules that are rapidly generated in response to abiotic and biotic stimuli and which regulate diverse physiological processes such as stomatal aperture and cell death.

Optimal length and signal amplification in weakly activated signal transduction cascades
Weakly activated signaling cascades can be modeled as linear systems. The input-to-output transfer function and the internal gain of a linear system, provide natural measures for the propagation of the input signal down the cascade and for the ...

Rule-based Modeling and Simulation of Biochemical Systems with Molecular Finite Automata [PDF]
We propose a theoretical formalism, molecular finite automata (MFA), to describe individual proteins as rule-based computing machines. The MFA formalism provides a framework for modeling individual protein behaviors and systems-level dynamics via construction of programmable and executable machines.

HECTD3 Mediates an HSP90-Dependent Degradation Pathway for Protein Kinase Clients
Summary: Inhibition of the ATPase cycle of the HSP90 chaperone promotes ubiquitylation and proteasomal degradation of its client proteins, which include many oncogenic protein kinases.

ATP concentration regulates enzyme kinetics [PDF]
Adenosine 5'-triphosphate (ATP) is the nearly ubiquitous "energy currency" of living organisms, and thus is a crucial participant in the majority of enzymatic reactions. The standard models in enzyme kinetics generally ignore the temporal dynamics of ATP because it is assumed to be present in large excess.

Multiple Xanthomonas euvesicatoria Type III Effectors Inhibit flg22-Triggered Immunity
Xanthomonas euvesicatoria is the causal agent of bacterial spot disease in pepper and tomato. X. euvesicatoria bacteria interfere with plant cellular processes by injecting effector proteins into host cells through the type III secretion (T3S) system ...

Hypergraphic Oriented Matroid Relational Dependency Flow Models of Chemical Reaction Networks [PDF]
In this paper we derive and present an application of hypergraphic oriented matroids for the purpose of enumerating the variable interdependencies that define the chemical complexes associated with the kinetics of non-linear dynamical system representations of chemical kinetic reaction flow networks. The derivation of a hypergraphic oriented matroid is
