Introduction to Complex Networks: Structure and Dynamics
This chapter is written with graduate students in mind. During the very encouraging meeting at the African Institute for Mathematical Sciences (AIMS) for the CIMPA-UNESCO-MESR-MINECO-South Africa Research School on “Evolutionary Equations with Applications in Natural Sciences” I noticed a great interest of graduate and postgraduate students in the field of complex networks. This chapter is then...
متن کاملNoncovalent keystone interactions controlling biomembrane structure.
There is a biomedical need to develop molecular recognition systems that selectively target the interfaces of protein and lipid aggregates in biomembranes. This is an extremely challenging problem in supramolecular chemistry because the biological membrane is a complex dynamic assembly of multifarious molecular components with local inhomogeneity. Two simplifying concepts are presented as a fra...
متن کاملWhat Is So Unique About Biomembrane Organization and Dynamics?
Biological membranes are complex quasi two-dimensional, supramolecular assemblies of a diverse variety of lipids, proteins and carbohydrates, that compartmentalize living matter into cells and subcellular structures. Membranes are held together by the hydrophobic effect, which is an entropy-driven process originating from strong attractive forces between water molecules. Membrane organization a...
متن کاملCardiolipins and biomembrane function.
Evidence is discussed for roles of cardiolipins in oxidative phosphorylation mechanisms that regulate State 4 respiration by returning ejected protons across and over bacterial and mitochondrial membrane phospholipids, and that regulate State 3 respiration through the relative contributions of proteins that transport protons, electrons and/or metabolites. The barrier properties of phospholipid ...
