The Influence of Canalization on the Robustness of Boolean Networks

open access: yes, 2016
Time- and state-discrete dynamical systems are frequently used to model molecular networks. This paper provides a collection of mathematical and computational tools for the study of robustness in Boolean network models.

Sensitivity Gains by Mismatched Probabilistic Shaping for Optical Communication Systems [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Probabilistic shaping of quadrature amplitude modulation (QAM) is used to enhance the sensitivity of an optical communication system. Sensitivity gains of 0.43 dB and 0.8 dB are demonstrated in back-to-back experiments by shaping of 16QAM and 64QAM ...

Spatiotemporal and quantitative analyses of phosphoinositides – fluorescent probe—and mass spectrometry‐based approaches

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Fluorescent probes allow dynamic visualization of phosphoinositides in living cells (left), whereas mass spectrometry provides high‐sensitivity, isomer‐resolved quantitation (right). Their synergistic use captures complementary aspects of lipid signaling. This review illustrates how these approaches reveal the spatiotemporal regulation and quantitative

Design of a microelectromechanical systems resonant electric field sensor with sensitivity robustness

open access: yesAdvances in Mechanical Engineering, 2015
Studies indicate that driving circuit and drift error in resonance frequency influence the sensitivity of micromechanical resonant electric field sensors. This study proposes an electric field sensor with a comb structure for driving and sensing.

Robustness of the Thirty Meter Telescope Primary Mirror Control System [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
The primary mirror control system for the Thirty Meter Telescope (TMT) maintains the alignment of the 492 segments in the presence of both quasi-static (gravity and thermal) and dynamic disturbances due to unsteady wind loads.

Protein pyrophosphorylation by inositol pyrophosphates — detection, function, and regulation

open access: yesFEBS 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 ...

The impact of FASTQ and alignment read order on structural variant calling from long-read sequencing data [PDF]

open access: yesPeerJ
Background Structural variant (SV) calling from DNA sequencing data has been challenging due to several factors, including the ambiguity of short-read alignments, multiple complex SVs in the same genomic region, and the lack of “truth” datasets for ...

How robust are findings of pairwise and network meta-analysis in the presence of missing participant outcome data?

open access: yesBMC Medicine, 2021
Background To investigate the prevalence of robust conclusions in systematic reviews addressing missing (participant) outcome data via a novel framework of sensitivity analyses and examine the agreement with the current sensitivity analysis standards ...

Function‐driven design of a surrogate interleukin‐2 receptor ligand

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Interleukin (IL)‐2 signaling can be achieved and precisely fine‐tuned through the affinity, distance, and orientation of the heterodimeric receptors with their ligands. We designed a biased IL‐2 surrogate ligand that selectively promotes effector T and natural killer cell activation and differentiation. Interleukin (IL) receptors play a pivotal role in
