… Nevertheless, if we believe the correlation between many of the WGDs in plants and the K–Pg
extinction to be real, the majority of the WGDs in plants seem to represent a unique event, …

Network inference, which is the reconstruction of biological networks from high-throughput
data, can provide valuable information about the regulation of gene expression in cells. …

The identification of promoters and their regulatory elements is one of the major challenges
in bioinformatics and integrates comparative, structural, and functional genomics. Many …

PlantCARE is a database of plant cis-acting regulatory elements, enhancers and repressors.
Regulatory elements are represented by positional matrices, consensus sequencesand …

Motivation: Transcriptome analysis allows detection and clustering of genes that are coexpressed
under various biological circumstances. Under the assumption that coregulated genes …

Microarray experiments can reveal useful information on the transcriptional regulation. We try
to find regulatory elements in the region upstream of translation start of coexpressed genes…

… Examples of interaction functions for one activator and different combinations of the kinetic
parameters K and h. Parameter tuples (K,h) are (0.05,1); (0.15,1); (0.5,1); (10,2); (10,5); (100,1…

Spent culture supernatant (SCS) of the probiotic Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG had been
reported to exert antibacterial activity against Salmonella typhimurium. However, the chemical …

Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium is a main cause of bacterial food-borne diseases.
As Salmonella can form biofilms in which it is better protected against antimicrobial agents …

Within bacterial populations, a small fraction of persister cells is transiently capable of surviving
exposure to lethal doses of antibiotics. As a bet-hedging strategy, persistence levels are …
