Using food-web theory to conserve ecosystems [PDF]
© 2016, Nature Publishing Group. All rights reserved.Food-web theory can be a powerful guide to the management of complex ecosystems. However, we show that indices of species importance common in food-web and network theory can be a poor guide to ...

Music, Mediation Theories and Actor-Network Theory [PDF]
In this double issue of the Contemporary Music Review we focus not on Adorno but on theories of music’s mediation that have emerged in the last two decades, offering some systematic reflection. The impetus for the issue came from the research programme ‘Music, Digitisation, Mediation: Towards Interdisciplinary Music Studies’ (or MusDig).

The role and implications of mammalian cellular circadian entrainment
At their most fundamental level, mammalian circadian rhythms occur inside every individual cell. To tell the correct time, cells must align (or ‘entrain’) their circadian rhythm to the external environment. In this review, we highlight how cells entrain to the major circadian cues of light, feeding and temperature, and the implications this has for our

Nonextensive statistical mechanics and complex scale-free networks
One explanation for the impressive recent boom in network theory might be that it provides a promising tool for an understanding of complex systems.

Molecular bases of circadian magnesium rhythms across eukaryotes
Circadian rhythms in intracellular [Mg2+] exist across eukaryotic kingdoms. Central roles for Mg2+ in metabolism suggest that Mg2+ rhythms could regulate daily cellular energy and metabolism. In this Perspective paper, we propose that ancestral prokaryotic transport proteins could be responsible for mediating Mg2+ rhythms and posit a feedback model ...

Interdisciplinary and physics challenges of Network Theory
Network theory has unveiled the underlying structure of complex systems such as the Internet or the biological networks in the cell. It has identified universal properties of complex networks, and the interplay between their structure and dynamics. After

Assemblage thinking and actor-network theory: conjunctions, disjunctions, cross-fertilisations
This paper shows that assemblage thinking and actor-network theory (ANT) have much more to gain from each other than debate has so far conceded.

Peptide‐based ligand antagonists block a Vibrio cholerae adhesin
The structure of a peptide‐binding domain of the Vibrio cholerae adhesin FrhA was solved by X‐ray crystallography, revealing how the inhibitory peptide AGYTD binds tightly at its Ca2+‐coordinated pocket. Structure‐guided design incorporating D‐amino acids enhanced binding affinity, providing a foundation for developing anti‐adhesion therapeutics ...
