Universal Biology
… I develop and defend my own account of universal biology, the study of non-vague, non-arbitrary, non-accidental, universal generalizations in biology. In my account, a candidate biological generalization is assessed in terms of the assumptions it makes. A successful claim is accepted only if its …

UNDERSTANDING SULFUR BASED REDOX BIOLOGY THROUGH ADVANCEMENTS IN CHEMICAL BIOLOGY
Sulfenic acids are fleeting intermediates formed from the oxidation of cysteine thiols by a number of biologically relevant oxidants. Sulfenic acids are quickly converted to other species including disulfides, thiosulfinates, sulfinic acids, or sulfonic acids, leading to changes in protein …

Drug Discovery in Redox Biology: From Natural Products to Structural Biology
Redox-regulating systems play essential roles in maintaining cellular homeostasis and represent important therapeutic targets in cancer and infectious diseases. Natural products provide structurally diverse redox-active scaffolds capable of modulating oxidative stress and redox sensitive signaling …

Integrating Concepts in Modern Molecular Biology into a High School Biology Curriculum
… any other science in the past several decades, Biology has seen an explosion of new information and monumental discoveries that have had a profound impact on much more than the science itself. Much of this has occurred at the molecular level. Many of these modern concepts, ideas, and …

From Biology to Algorithms
This thesis describes a path from a model of a biological system to a biologically-inspired algorithm. The thesis commences with a discussion of the principled design of biologically-inspired algorithms. It is argued that modelling a biological system can be tremendously helpful in eventual …

Chemical Biology of Dynein
<p>Cytoplasmic dynein is a AAA (ATPase Associated with various Activities) motor protein that transports cellular cargoes towards the microtubule minus-end. Despite its essential role in intracellular transport, dynein remains the least understood cytoskeletal motor. With speeds >25 μm/min in …

Activation processes in biology
Many processes in physics and biology can be understand through the framework of escape from a metastable state, including (but not limited to) the rates of chemical reactions, the unfolding of proteins, the nucleation of bubbles, and the condensation of gases. To understand the kinetics of these …

Multimodal Networks in Biology
… of e, while m is its mode. In the context of biology, each vertex is a biological entity, each hyperedge is a relationship, and each mode is a type of relationship (e.g., 'forms complex' and 'is a'). Within the space of multimodal networks, structural operations such as union, intersection, …

Redox biology of myeloid leukaemias
Internal tandem duplication of FMS-like receptor tyrosine kinase (FLT3-ITD) has been associated with an aggressive AML phenotype. FLT3-ITD expressing cell lines have been shown to generate increased levels of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and DNA double strand breaks (dsbs). However, the molecular …
