Evolvability and Robustness in Populations of RNA Virus Φ6
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2014 Microbes can respond quickly to environmental disturbances through adaptation. However, processes determining the constraints on this adaptation are not well understood.

Robustness of the long-term nonlinear evolution of global sea surface temperature trend
Geoscience Letters, 2022 The multi-scale variability of global sea surface temperature (GSST), which is often dominated by secular trends, significantly impacts global and regional climate change. Previous studies were mainly carried out under linear assumptions.

Accelerated adiabatic quantum gates: optimizing speed versus robustness
, 2019 We develop new protocols for high-fidelity single qubit gates that exploit and extend theoretical ideas for accelerated adiabatic evolution. Our protocols are compatible with qubit architectures with highly isolated logical states, where traditional ...

Disordered but rhythmic—the role of intrinsic protein disorder in eukaryotic circadian timing
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Unstructured domains known as intrinsically disordered regions (IDRs) are present in nearly every part of the eukaryotic core circadian oscillator. IDRs enable many diverse inter‐ and intramolecular interactions that support clock function. IDR conformations are highly tunable by post‐translational modifications and environmental conditions, which ...

Protein pyrophosphorylation by inositol pyrophosphates — detection, function, and regulation
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Protein pyrophosphorylation is an unusual signaling mechanism that was discovered two decades ago. It can be driven by inositol pyrophosphate messengers and influences various cellular processes. Herein, we summarize the research progress and challenges of this field, covering pathways found to be regulated by this posttranslational modification as ...

Violations of robustness trade‐offs
Molecular Systems Biology, 2010 Biological robustness is a principle that may shed light on system‐level characteristics of biological systems. One intriguing aspect of the concept of biological robustness is the possible existence of intrinsic trade‐offs among robustness, fragility ...

Epistasis as a determinant of the HIV-1 protease's robustness to mutation. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 The robustness of phenotypes to mutation is critical to protein evolution; robustness may be an adaptive trait if it promotes evolution. We hypothesised that native proteins subjected to natural selection in vivo should be more robust than proteins ...

Recombination and the evolution of mutational robustness
Journal of Theoretical Biology, 2006 Mutational robustness is the degree to which a phenotype, such as fitness, is resistant to mutational perturbations. Since most of these perturbations will tend to reduce fitness, robustness provides an immediate benefit for the mutated individual. However, robust systems decay due to the accumulation of deleterious mutations that would otherwise have ...
