Computational study on ratio-sensing in yeast galactose utilization pathway.
Metabolic networks undergo gene expression regulation in response to external nutrient signals. In microbes, the synthesis of enzymes that are used to transport and catabolize less preferred carbon sources is repressed in the...
Modifiable lifestyle factors and severe COVID-19 risk
BACKGROUND: Lifestyle factors including obesity and smoking are suggested to be correlated with increased risk of COVID-19 severe illness or related death. However, whether these relationships are causal is not well known;...
Implementation of Data Mining Technology in Bonded Warehouse Inbound and Outbound Goods Trade
