Sentences with phrase «novel signaling networks»

Not exact matches

Using complex mathematical algorithms, this novel antenna transmits a unique signal to every phone, giving everyone a personal network.

A related study, also published in PLOS Genetics, shows that RPM - 1 functions as a part of a novel pathway to control β - catenin activity — this is the first evidence that RPM - 1 works in connection with extracellular signals, such as a family of protein growth factors known as Wnts, and is part of larger signaling networks that regulate development.

Along with other research in this area, Schreiber's HDAC discovery and his novel «signaling network model» of chromatin revealed the genetic complex to be not just a simple structural element, but one with a key regulatory function that is central to epigenetics.

We study genetic networks that distinguish stem cells from their differentiating descendants as well as the role of mobile small RNAs as novel meristem - derived signals that pattern leaves

The consortium will • design and test novel body sensor network for biofeedback restitution • design and test new algorithms and signal processing • implement biofeedback multi-sensory restitution channels and methods

To understand the selection mechanism behind mutations, network - based studies were used to estimate the importance of a mutated protein compared to non-mutated ones in signalling and protein — protein interaction networks.10, 11,12,13 Proteins mutated in cancer were found having a high number of interacting partners (i.e., a high degree of connectivity), which indicates high local importance.10 Mutated proteins are also often found in the centre of the network, in key global positions, as quantified by the number of shortest paths passing through them if all proteins are connected with each other (i.e., they have high betweenness centrality; hereafter called betweenness).11, 12 Mutated proteins also have high clustering coefficients, which means their neighbours are also neighbours of each other.10, 13 Moreover, neighbourhood analysis of mutated proteins have been previously successfully used to predict novel cancer - related genes.14, 15 However, to the best of our knowledge, no study has concentrated particularly on the topological importance of first neighbours of mutated proteins in cancer, and their usefulness as drug targets themselves.
