  1. 16. The stochastic nature of intracellular control circuits

    Författare :Johan Paulsson; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Cell and molecular biology; Stochastic; mesoscopic; noise; gene; plasmid; metabolic; regulation; control; Cell- och molekylärbiologi; Cell and molecular biology; Cell- och molekylärbiologi; molekylärbiologi; Molecular Biology;

    Sammanfattning : Chemical reactions are probabilistic by nature, causing random fluctuations inconcentrations to emerge spontaneously. In conventional (macroscopic) kinetics this internal noise is ignored under the assumption that average copy numbers are so high that fluctuations are negligible in comparison. LÄS MER

  2. 17. Robust inference of gene regulatory networks : System properties, variable selection, subnetworks, and design of experiments

    Författare :Torbjörn E. M. Nordling; Elling W Jacobsen; Rolf Findeisen; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; network inference; reverse engineering; variable selection; model selection; feature selection; subset selection; system identification; system theory; network theory; subnetworks; design of experiments; perturbation experiments; gene regulatory networks; biological networks;

    Sammanfattning : In this thesis, inference of biological networks from in vivo data generated by perturbation experiments is considered, i.e. deduction of causal interactions that exist among the observed variables. Knowledge of such regulatory influences is essential in biology. LÄS MER

  3. 18. Control of bioluminescence. Operating the light switch in photophores from marine animals

    Författare :Jenny Krönström; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; bioluminescence; physiological control; nitric oxide; krill; fish;

    Sammanfattning : Physiologically controlled photocytes, capable of producing bioluminescence, are a common feature in the ocean among animals ranging from cnidarians to fish. The aim of this thesis was to study and compare the nature of this control, in both distantly and closely related species from the groups Teleostei Crustacea, and Cnidaria. LÄS MER

  4. 19. Control of FtsZ-ring formation and cell division in Streptomyces venezuelae

    Författare :Beer Sen; Klas Flärdh; Molekylär cellbiologi; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Streptomyces; SepIVA; SepF-like proteins; divisome; Z-ring assembly; Cooperativity; cell division; FtsZ;

    Sammanfattning : Cell division is essential for all life forms. In bacteria, this fundamental process is precisely orchestrated by a protein, FtsZ, the ancestral homolog of eukaroytic tubulin. LÄS MER

  5. 20. On Identification of Biological Systems

    Författare :Egi Hidayat; Alexander Medvedev; Peter Stoica; Elling Jacobsen; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; system identification; biomedical systems; insect vision; endocrine systems; orthogonal basis functions; time delay; impulse response; Laguerre functions; Laguerre polynomials; excitation design; Elektroteknik med inriktning mot reglerteknik; Electrical Engineering with specialization in Automatic Control;

    Sammanfattning : System identification finds nowadays application in various areas of biological research as a tool of empiric mathematical modeling and model individualization. A fundamental challenge of system identification in biology awaits in the form of response variability. LÄS MER
