Focus Issue: Cancer-Beyond tumor genetics to protein landscapes.
The proteins that regulate cell proliferation, metastatic potential, survival in circulation, and immune evasion represent most of the targets for therapeutic intervention in cancer. Furthermore, genomic profiling of just the cancer cells leaves critical information about the tumor microenvironment in the dark. The articles highlighted in this Focus Issue describe efforts to translate genomic d...
متن کاملIntroduction to focus issue: quantitative approaches to genetic networks.
All cells of living organisms contain similar genetic instructions encoded in the organism's DNA. In any particular cell, the control of the expression of each different gene is regulated, in part, by binding of molecular complexes to specific regions of the DNA. The molecular complexes are composed of protein molecules, called transcription factors, combined with various other molecules such a...
متن کاملFocus issue: calcium signaling.
It has beenmy pleasure to act as Guest Editor for this Focus Issue about calcium signaling. Ca is the fifth most abundant element in the Earth’s crust, yet high concentrations are cytotoxic because of precipitation of phosphates, proteins, and DNA. Homeostatic mechanisms to maintain low cellular Ca evolved early, with the ability to pump Ca ions out of the cytosol into the extracellular space b...
متن کاملChikungunya: international focus issue.
In October 2013, the first international meeting on chikungunya took place in Langkawi, Malaysia. The Integrated Chikungunya Research consortium (ICRES, www.icres.eu), coordinated by Professor John Fazakerley and funded by the European Union Seventh Framework Programme (EU FP7), brought together the main European laboratories working on chikungunya with groups in Southeast Asia and Australia. T...
متن کاملQuantitative Genetics
Genetic analysis of quantitative traits is applied in a wide variety of substantive research areas. Many human characteristics exhibit continuous variation, such as height, weight, intelligence or personality, but the application of quantitative genetics is not limited to traits thought to be continuous. For example, eye color may be assessed in a qualitative fashion – blue versus brown versus ...
