Revealing global regulatory perturbations across human cancers.
The discovery of pathways and regulatory networks whose perturbation contributes to neoplastic transformation remains a fundamental challenge for cancer biology. We show that such pathway perturbations, and the cis-regulatory elements through which they operate, can be efficiently extracted from global gene expression profiles. Our approach utilizes information-theoretic analysis of expression ...
متن کاملA quantitative survey of local adaptation and fitness trade-offs.
The long history of reciprocal transplant studies testing the hypothesis of local adaptation has shown that populations are often adapted to their local environments. Yet many studies have not demonstrated local adaptation, suggesting that sometimes native populations are no better adapted than are genotypes from foreign environments. Local adaptation may also lead to trade-offs, in which adapt...
متن کاملTowards Global and Local Types for Adaptation
Choreographies allow designers to specify the protocols followed by participants of a distributed interaction. Adapting the behavior of a participant, either because of external requests or as a self-update to better suit a changing environment, requires to update in a coordinated way (possibly) all the participants interacting with him. We propose a language able to describe a choreography tog...
متن کاملGenetic mapping of adaptation reveals fitness tradeoffs in Arabidopsis thaliana.
Organisms inhabiting different environments are often locally adapted, and yet despite a considerable body of theory, the genetic basis of local adaptation is poorly understood. Unanswered questions include the number and effect sizes of adaptive loci, whether locally favored loci reduce fitness elsewhere (i.e., fitness tradeoffs), and whether a lack of genetic variation limits adaptation. To a...
متن کاملSigns of adaptation to local pH conditions across an environmental mosaic in the California Current Ecosystem.
Little is known about the potential for rapid evolution in natural populations in response to the high rate of contemporary climatic change. Organisms that have evolved in environments that experience high variability across space and time are of particular interest as they may harbor genetic variation that can facilitate evolutionary response to changing conditions. Here we review what is know...
