Traditionally, protein structures have been analysed by the secondary structure architecture
and fold arrangement. An alternative approach that has shown promise is modelling …

We present a simple method, using constant pinnings, to suppress spatiotemporal chaos
and achieve global control in coupled map lattice models under different situations, eg, for …

The activation of protein phosphastase-1 (PP1) by insulin plays a critical role in the regulation
of glycogen metabolism. PTG is a PP1 glycogen-targeting protein, which also binds the …

Discovery of copy number variations (CNVs), a major category of structural variations, have
dramatically changed our understanding of differences between individuals and provide an …

Network theory is now a method of choice to gain insights in understanding protein structure,
folding and function. In combination with molecular dynamics (MD) simulations, it is an …

Background Tandem repetition of structural motifs in proteins is frequently observed across
all forms of life. Topology of repeating unit and its frequency of occurrence are associated to …

Drought is one of the major environmental stress conditions affecting the yield of rice across
the globe. Unraveling the functional roles of the drought-responsive genes and their …

Background Drought is a severe environmental stress. It is estimated that about 50% of the
world rice production is affected mainly by drought. Apart from conventional breeding …

Repetition of a structural motif within protein is associated with a wide range of structural and
functional roles. In most cases the repeating units are well conserved at the structural level …

The authors develop a novel numerical approach, based on a computationally efficient cell
dynamical system (CDS) model, for studying the kinetics of ordering in systems (described by …
