Using systems and structure biology tools to dissect cellular phenotypes
The Center for the Multiscale Analysis of Genetic Networks (MAGNet, http://magnet.c2b2.columbia.edu) was established in 2005, with the mission of providing the biomedical research community with Structural and Systems Biology algorithms and software tools for the dissection of molecular interactions and for the interaction-based elucidation of cellular phenotypes. Over the last 7 years, MAGNet ...
متن کاملMeet the neighbours: tools to dissect nuclear structure and function.
The eukaryotic cell nucleus displays a high degree of spatial organization, with discrete functional subcompartments that provide microenvironments where specialized processes take place. Concordantly, the genome also adopts defined conformations that, in part, enable specific genomic regions to interface with these functional centers. Yet the roles of many subcompartments and the genomic regio...
متن کاملSynthetic Biology: Tools to Design, Build, and Optimize Cellular Processes
The general central dogma frames the emergent properties of life, which make biology both necessary and difficult to engineer. In a process engineering paradigm, each biological process stream and process unit is heavily influenced by regulatory interactions and interactions with the surrounding environment. Synthetic biology is developing the tools and methods that will increase control over t...
متن کاملResources, standards and tools for systems biology.
Modelling and simulation techniques are valuable tools for the understanding of complex biological systems. The design of a computer model necessarily has many diverse inputs, such as information on the model topology, reaction kinetics and experimental data, derived either from the literature, databases or direct experimental investigation. In this review, we describe different data resources,...
متن کاملCellular structure and biology of Dupuytren's disease.
Numerous studies support the idea that the myofibroblast is a key cell responsible for the tissue contraction in Dupuytren's disease. In vitro models have been developed to study the underlying cellular basis of myofibroblast differentiation and contraction. Studies suggest that the growth factor TGF-beta 1 combined with mechanical stress can promote the differentiation of fibroblasts into myof...
