Nodes with high centrality in protein interaction networks are responsible for driving signaling pathways in diabetic nephropathy [PDF]
In spite of huge efforts, chronic diseases remain an unresolved problem in medicine. Systems biology could assist to develop more efficient therapies through providing quantitative holistic sights to these complex disorders.

Structure and dynamics of the E. coli chemotaxis core signaling complex by cryo-electron tomography and molecular simulations [PDF]
To enable the processing of chemical gradients, chemotactic bacteria possess large arrays of transmembrane chemoreceptors, the histidine kinase CheA, and the adaptor protein CheW, organized as coupled core-signaling units (CSU). Despite decades of study,

From ORFeomes to protein interaction maps in viruses.
Although cloned viral ORFeomes are particularly well suited for genome-wide interaction mapping due to the limited size of viral genomes, only a few such studies have been published.

Mapping protein–protein interactions by mass spectrometry
AbstractProtein–protein interactions (PPIs) are essential for numerous biological activities, including signal transduction, transcription control, and metabolism. They play a pivotal role in the organization and function of the proteome, and their perturbation is associated with various diseases, such as cancer, neurodegeneration, and infectious ...

Unraveling molecular similarities between colorectal polyps and colorectal cancer: a systems biology approach [PDF]
Background/Aims Colorectal cancer (CRC) and colorectal polyps are intimately linked, with polyps acting as precursors to CRC. Understanding the molecular mechanisms governing their development is crucial for advancing diagnosis and treatment. Employing a

Folding Lennard-Jones proteins by a contact potential
We studied the possibility to approximate a Lennard Jones interaction by a pairwise contact potential. First we used a Lennard-Jones potential to design off-lattice, protein-like heteropolymer sequences, whose lowest energy (native) conformations were ...

Comparative mapping of host–pathogen protein–protein interactions [PDF]
Pathogens usurp a variety of host pathways via protein-protein interactions to ensure efficient pathogen replication. Despite the existence of an impressive toolkit of systematic and unbiased approaches, we still lack a comprehensive list of these PPIs and an understanding of their functional implications.
