Systems Biology Strikes Gold

چکیده
Integrating synthetic biology and systems biology efforts can advance our understanding of biomolecular systems. This is illustrated in this issue by Cantone et al. (2009), who construct a synthetic gene network in yeast and use it to assess and benchmark systems biology approaches for reverse engineering endogenous gene networks.

The inuence of Miroslav Fiedler on spectral graph theory
This note is a write up of a talk given at the ILAS meeting in Braunschweig, 2011, at the minisymposium celebrating the 80th birthday of Miroslav Fiedler. The purpose of the talk is to outline the impact of Fiedlers work on the development of spectral graph theory. Fiedler is best known for putting forward the algebraic connectivity and its eigenvector. These two topics were genuine gold strik...
متن کاملFluid dynamics of feeding behaviour in white-spotted bamboo sharks.
Although the motor control of feeding is presumed to be generally conserved, some fishes are capable of modulating the feeding behaviour in response to prey type and or prey size. This led to the 'feeding modulation hypothesis', which states that rapid suction strikes are pre-programmed stereotyped events that proceed to completion once initiated regardless of sensory input. If this hypothesis ...
متن کاملDebunking the viper's strike: harmless snakes kill a common assumption.
To survive, organisms must avoid predation and acquire nutrients and energy. Sensory systems must correctly differentiate between potential predators and prey, and elicit behaviours that adjust distances accordingly. For snakes, strikes can serve both purposes. Vipers are thought to have the fastest strikes among snakes. However, strike performance has been measured in very few species, especia...
متن کاملAssessing Stability of Gold Nanoparticles in Presence of Two Enzymes, RNaseA and RNaseH, Using Colorimetric Detection
Gold nanoparticle-based diagnostic methods have attracted much attention due to their simplicity, high sensitivity and low cost. These methods are mostly used for early and efficient detection of various pathogenic factors and assessment of gene expression and nanoparticles stability. In this study, melon plants were cultured in vivo and then, RNA was extracted from leaf explants. A 40 bp probe...
