Evolution of C4 photosynthesis predicted by constraint-based modelling
Constraint-based modelling (CBM) is a powerful tool for the analysis of evolutionary trajectories. Evolution, especially evolution in the distant past, is not easily accessible to laboratory experimentation.

Reaction Motifs in Metabolic Networks [PDF]
The classic view of metabolism as a collection of metabolic pathways is being questioned with the currently available possibility of studying whole networks. Novel ways of decomposing the network into modules and motifs that could be considered as the building blocks of a network are being suggested. In this work, we introduce a new definition of motif

Structure, Properties, and Function of Glycosomes in Trypanosoma cruzi
Glycosomes are peroxisome-related organelles that have been identified in kinetoplastids and diplonemids. The hallmark of glycosomes is their harboring of the majority of the glycolytic enzymes.

High-Performance Biocomputing in Synthetic Biology–Integrated Transcriptional and Metabolic Circuits
Biocomputing uses molecular biology parts as the hardware to implement computational devices. By following pre-defined rules, often hard-coded into biological systems, these devices are able to process inputs and return outputs—thus computing information.

Bayesian Integrative Modeling of Genome-Scale Metabolic and Regulatory Networks
The integration of high-throughput data to build predictive computational models of cellular metabolism is a major challenge of systems biology. These models are needed to predict cellular responses to genetic and environmental perturbations.

Evolution of metabolic network organization [PDF]
Comparison of metabolic networks across species is a key to understanding how evolutionary pressures shape these networks. By selecting taxa representative of different lineages or lifestyles and using a comprehensive set of descriptors of the structure and complexity of their metabolic networks, one can highlight both qualitative and quantitative ...
