Simple computer models unravel genetic stress reactions in cells
Integrated biological and computational methods provide insight into why genes are activated.
This molecular structure depicts a yeast transfer ribonucleic acid (tRNA), which carries a single amino acid to the ribosome during protein construction. A combined experimental and computational approach, to better understand signaling pathways that lead to genetic mutations, is at the core of this research.
