Are Protein Shape-Encoded Lowest-Frequency Motions a Key Phenotype Selected by Evolution?
Applied Sciences, 2023 At the very deepest molecular level, the mechanisms of life depend on the operation of proteins, the so-called “workhorses” of the cell. Proteins are nanoscale machines that transform energy into useful cellular work, such as ion or nutrient transport ...

A spatial mutation model with increasing mutation rates
Journal of Applied Probability, 2023 AbstractWe consider a spatial model of cancer in which cells are points on the d-dimensional torus $\mathcal{T}=[0,L]^d$ , and each cell with $k-1$ mutations acquires a kth mutation at rate $\mu_k$ . We assume that the mutation rates $\mu_k$ are increasing, and we find the asymptotic waiting time for the first cell to acquire k mutations as the ...

Semantically Driven Mutation in Genetic Programming [PDF]
, 2008 Using semantic analysis, we present a technique known as semantically driven mutation which can explicitly detect and apply behavioural changes caused by the syntactic changes in programs that result from the mutation operation. Using semantically driven

Mutational landscape of yeast mutator strains [PDF]
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2014 Significance Deficiencies in genome maintenance genes (so-called mutator genes) result in increased mutagenesis that impacts cell evolvability. How the mutational processes drive the evolution of genome structure is not well understood.

Colorectal cancer prognosis: is it all mutation, mutation, mutation? [PDF]
Gut, 2005 For the 500 000 new cases of colorectal cancer in the world each year, identification of patients with a worse prognosis and those who are more likely to respond to treatment is a challenge. There is an increasing body of evidence correlating genetic mutations with outcome in tumours derived from human colorectal cancer cohorts.

Nature Communications, 2018 This Article contains errors in Fig. 3, Fig. 4 and Fig. 7, for which we apologize. In Fig. 3, panel ‘b’, the 0.5 hour time point after Ku55933 treatment images were inadvertently replaced with duplicates of the 3 hour time point after Ku55933 treatment ...

Adaptive mutation with fitness and allele distribution correlation for genetic algorithms [PDF]
, 2006 Copyright @ 2006 ACMIn this paper, a new gene based adaptive mutation scheme is proposed for genetic algorithms (GAs), where the information on gene based fitness statistics and on gene based allele distribution statistics are correlated to explicitly ...
