Genotype networks, innovation, and robustness in sulfur metabolism [PDF]
Metabolic networks are complex systems that comprise hundreds of chemical reactions which synthesize biomass molecules from chemicals in an organism's environment. The metabolic network of any one organism is encoded by a metabolic genotype, defined by a set of enzyme-coding genes whose products catalyze the network's reactions. Each metabolic genotype

Iduronate-2-sulfatase interactome: validation by yeast two-hybrid assay
Background: Mucopolysaccharidosis type II (MPS II), also known as Hunter syndrome, is a rare X-linked recessive disease caused by a deficiency of the lysosomal enzyme iduronate-2-sulfatase (IDS), which activates intracellular accumulation of ...

The untapped power of a general theory of organismal metabolism [PDF]
What makes living things special is how they manage matter, energy, and entropy. A general theory of organismal metabolism should therefore be quantified in these three currencies while capturing the unique way they flow between individuals and their environments. We argue that such a theory has quietly arrived -- 'Dynamic Energy Budget' (DEB) theory --

Electrokinetic Manipulations Combined With Direct and Ambient Ionization Mass Spectrometry
ABSTRACT Mass spectrometry (MS) is a powerful analytical technique that typically involves sample preparation and online analytical separation before MS detection. Traditional methods often face bottlenecks in sample preparation and analytical separation, despite the rapid detection capabilities of MS.

Antithrombin: Deficiency, Diversity, and the Future of Diagnostics
ABSTRACT Our healthcare system provides reactive sick‐care, treating patients after symptoms have appeared by prescription of generic and often suboptimal therapy. This strategy brings along high costs and high pressure which is not sustainable.

Guanidinoacetate methyltransferase (GAMT) deficiency is a rare autosomal recessive disorder of creatine biosynthesis. Here, we report 9 and 10-year-old cousins with GAMT deficiency caused by a novel mutation who both exhibited neurodevelopmental ...

Critical dynamics of gene networks is a mechanism behind ageing and Gompertz law [PDF]
Although accumulation of molecular damage is suggested to be an important molecular mechanism of aging, a quantitative link between the dynamics of damage accumulation and mortality of species has so far remained elusive. To address this question, we examine stability properties of a generic gene regulatory network (GRN) and demonstrate that many ...

Topological Quantum Computation and Error Correction by Biological Cells [PDF]
A Topological examination of phospholipid dynamics in the Far from Equilibrium state has demonstrated that metabolically active cells use waste heat to generate spatially patterned membrane flows by forced convection and shear. This paper explains the resemblance between this nonlinear membrane model and Witten Kitaev type Topological Quantum ...
