Genetic Recombination as a Chemical Reaction Network [PDF]
The process of genetic recombination can be seen as a chemical reaction network with mass-action kinetics. We review the known results on existence, uniqueness, and global stability of an equilibrium in every compatibility class and for all rate constants, from both the population genetics and the reaction networks point of view.

Quercus variabilis (Q. variabilis), a significant broadleaf species used in afforestation across high, sandy, and mountainous regions, presents unique challenges for transplantation. This species is characterized by its slow above-ground growth and rapid

Deciphering cell signaling rewiring in human disorders [PDF]
The knowledge of cell molecular mechanisms implicated in human diseases is expanding and should be converted into guidelines for deciphering pathological cell signaling and suggesting appropriate treatment. The basic assumption is that during a pathological transformation, the cell does not create new signaling mechanisms, but rather it hijacks the ...

Piecewise linear models of chemical reaction networks [PDF]
We show that certain non-linear dynamical systems with non-linearities in the form of Hill functions, can be approximated by piecewise linear dynamical systems. The resulting piecewise systems have closed form solutions that can be used to understand the behavior of the fully nonlinear system.

Striking a balance with Recon 2.1 [PDF]
Recon 2 is a highly curated reconstruction of the human metabolic network. Whilst the network is state of the art, it has shortcomings, including the presence of unbalanced reactions involving generic metabolites. By replacing these generic molecules with each of their specific instances, we can ensure full elemental balancing, in turn allowing ...

Green leafy vegetables like Bidens pilosa are valuable sources of nutraceuticals worldwide. However, due to minimal human intervention, these wild-growing plants can be exposed to pollution and pathogenic microorganisms including endophytic fungi that ...

On the multistationarity of chemical reaction networks [PDF]
We present a new conjecture about a necessary condition that a (bio)chemical network has to satisfy for it to exhibit multistationarity. According to a Theorem of Feliu and Wiuf [27, 12], the conjecture is known for strictly monotonic kinetics. We give several examples illustrating our conjecture.

Modelling 1D Partially Absorbing Boundaries for Brownian Molecular Communication Channels [PDF]
Molecular Communication (MC) architectures suffer from molecular build-up in the channel if they do not have appropriate reuptake mechanisms. The molecular build-up either leads to intersymbol interference (ISI) or reduces the transmission rate. To measure the molecular build-up, we derive analytic expressions for the incidence rate and absorption rate

On The Reconstruction of Interaction Networks with Applications to Transcriptional Regulation [PDF]
A novel information-theoretic method for reconstruction of interaction networks is introduced. We prove that the method is exact for some class of networks. Performance tests on large synthetic transcriptional regulatory networks produce very encouraging results.
