An Introduction to BioModel Engineering, Illustrated for Signal Transduction Pathways
BioModel Engineering is the science of designing, constructing and analyzing computational models of biological systems. It is inspired by concepts from software engineering and computing science. This paper illustrates a major theme in BioModel Engineering, namely that identifying a quantitative model of a dynamic system means building the structure, finding an initial state, and parameter fit...
متن کاملSignal transduction.
This issue of Breast Disease focuses on the subject of signal transduction and its role in the pathogenesis and progression of human breast cancer. Within the past 10 years, the explosion in our knowledge of these processes has significantly altered our understanding of breast cancer, and resulted in the first receptor-based therapies. This issue examines a variety of relevant signaling pathway...
متن کاملA Brief Introduction to the Transduction of Neural Activity into Fos Signal.
The immediate early gene c-fos has long been known as a molecular marker of neural activity. The neuron's activity is transformed into intracellular calcium influx through NMDA receptors and L-type voltage sensitive calcium channels. For the transcription of c-fos, neural activity should be strong enough to activate mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) signaling pathway which shows low calci...
متن کاملSignal transduction: Fast lane to transcriptional activation
Two newly reported structures of homodimeric 'STAT' transcription factors bound to DNA reveal at atomic resolution the elegant mechanism through which kinase activity at the cell membrane can be transduced into transcriptional activation within the cell nucleus.
متن کاملHedgehog signal transduction: from flies to vertebrates.
The patterning and morphogenesis of multicellular organisms require a complex interplay of inductive signals which control proliferation, growth arrest, and differentiation of different cell types. A number of such signaling molecules have been identified in vertebrates and invertebrates. The molecular dissection of these pathways demonstrated that in vertebrates, mutations or abnormals functio...
