Diamond-Blackfan anemia (DBA) is a congenital erythroid aplasia that usually presents in infancy. In order to explore the molecular mechanisms of wild and mutated samples from DBA patients were exposed to bioi...
Gastric Carcinoma is one of the most lethal cancer around the world, and is also the most common cancers in Eastern Asia. A lot of differentially expressed genes have been detected as being associated with Gas...
Identifying complexes from PPI networks has become a key problem to elucidate protein functions and identify signal and biological processes in a cell. Proteins binding as complexes are important roles of life...
The human body is colonized by a vast number of microbes. Microbiota can benefit many normal life processes, but can also cause many diseases by interfering the regular metabolism and immune system. Recent stu...
WD40 repeat proteins constitute one of the largest families in eukaryotes, and widely participate in various fundamental cellular processes by interacting with other molecules. Based on individual WD40 protein...
Uncertainties exist in many biological systems, which can be classified as random uncertainties and fuzzy uncertainties. The former can usually be dealt with using stochastic methods, while the latter have to ...
The haematopoietic lineages with leukaemia lineages are considered in this paper. In particular, we mainly consider that haematopoietic lineages are tightly controlled by negative feedback inhibition of end-pr...
Finding potential drug targets is a crucial step in drug discovery and development. Recently, resources such as the Library of Integrated Network-Based Cellular Signatures (LINCS) L1000 database provide gene e...
Promoter is an important sequence regulation element, which is in charge of gene transcription initiation. In prokaryotes, σ70 promoters regulate the transcription of most genes. The promoter recognition has been...
Differential gene expression analysis using RNA-seq data is a popular approach for discovering specific regulation mechanisms under certain environmental settings. Both gene ontology (GO) and KEGG pathway enri...
Efficient computational recognition and segmentation of target organ from medical images are foundational in diagnosis and treatment, especially about pancreas cancer. In practice, the diversity in appearance ...
Essential proteins are necessary for the survival and development of cells. The identification of essential proteins can help to understand the minimal requirements for cellular life and it also plays an impor...
Rice (Oryza sativa) is one of the most important grain crops, which serves as food source for nearly half of the world population. The study of rice development process as well as related strategies for productio...
One central building block of population genetics is the fixation probability. It is a probabilistic understanding of the eventual fate of new mutations. Moreover, the fixation probability of new beneficial mu...
