A comparison of variant theories of intact biochemical systems. I. enzyme-enzyme interactions and biochemical systems theory
(Elsevier, 1989-06)
The need for a well-structured theory of intact biochemical systems becomes increasingly evident as one attempts to integrate the vast knowledge of individual molecular constituents, which has been expanding for several ...
Optimization of kinetic proofreading: A general method for derivation of the constraint relations and an exploration of a specific case
(Elsevier, 1981-11-07)
We have previously presented a general cost-accuracy relationship for a broad class of kinetic proofreading mechanisms. In this paper we present a general matrix method, based upon classical enzyme kinetics, for the ...
Positive regulatory gene for temperature-controlled proteins in Escherichia coli
(Elsevier, 1981-05-29)
SummaryA group of nine proteins of Escherichia coli K12 vary in steady state level with growth temperature, and are particularly abundant above 40[deg]C. The identities of most of these HTP (high temperature production) ...
The Continuum Model: Statistical implications
(Elsevier, 1982-02-21)
The Continuum Model postulates that preparations for the initiation of DNA synthesis takes place continuously, and in all phases of the cell cycle. There are no G1-specific events involved in the initiation of DNA synthesis. ...
Kinetics of toluene degradation by toluene-oxidizing bacteria as a function of oxygen concentration, and the effect of nitrate
(Blackwell Publishing Ltd, 1997-05)
The kinetics of toluene degradation as a function of oxygen concentration were compared for six strains of toluene-oxidizing bacteria using initial rate assays. The effect of nitrate was also examined. Rates of degradation ...
Optimal design of feedback control by inhibition
(Springer-Verlag, 1975-09)
The local stability of unbranched biosynthetic pathways is examined by mathematical analysis and computer simulation using a novel nonlinear formalism that appears to accurately describe biochemical systems. Four factors ...
Metabolic regulation of aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase formation in bacteria
(Elsevier, 1972-10-17)
The cellular levels of several aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases vary with the rate of growth of , and of , in different media. Over a seven-fold range in growth rate the levels of arginyl- and of valyl-tRNA synthetase change ...
Strategies for representing metabolic pathways within biochemical systems theory: Reversible pathways
(Elsevier, 1989-06)
The search for systematic methods to deal with the integrated behavior of complex biochemical systems has over the past two decades led to the proposal of several theories of biochemical systems. Among the most promising ...
Isolation and structure of the bacterial sex pheromone, cAD1, that induces plasmid transfer in Streptococcus faecalis
(Elsevier, 1984-12-03)
The Streptococcus faecalis sex pheromone cAD1, which is involved in the conjugative transfer of the hemolysin plasmid pAD1, has been isolated and its structure determined. Its Mr is 818 and its amino acid sequence is ...
Recasting nonlinear differential equations as S-systems: a canonical nonlinear form
(Elsevier, 1987-11)
An enormous variety of nonlinear differential equations and functions have been recast exactly in the canonical form called an S-system. This is a system of nonlinear ordinary differential equations, each with the same ...
