To characterize the behavior and robustness of cellular circuits is a major challenge for Systems Biology. Many of the published methods that address this question quantify the local robustness of the models. In this thesis, I tried to underpin the inappro ...
Context: The circadian clock represents the body's molecular time-keeping system. Recent findings revealed strong changes of clock gene expression in various types of human cancers. Objective: Due to emerging evidence on the connection between the circadia ...
Human diseases are often accompanied by histological changes that confound interpretation of molecular analyses and identification of disease-related effects. We developed population-specific expression analysis (PSEA), a computational method of analyzing ...
Virtually every cell in our body tracks daily time using an endogenous mechanism called the circadian clock, which has a period of about 24 hours. This timing system offers a selective advantage by enabling organisms to anticipate periodic changes in envir ...
Background: Fluorescent and bioluminescent time-lapse microscopy approaches have been successfully used to investigate molecular mechanisms underlying the mammalian circadian oscillator at the single cell level. However, most of the available software and ...
To characterize the behavior and robustness of cellular circuits with many unknown parameters is a major challenge for systems biology. Its difficulty rises exponentially with the number of circuit components. We here propose a novel analysis method to mee ...
The circadian clock acts at the genomic level to coordinate internal behavioural and physiological rhythms via the CLOCK-BMAL1 transcriptional heterodimer. Although the nuclear receptors REV-ERB-α and REV-ERB-β have been proposed to form an accessory feedb ...
BACKGROUND: Organisms are able to anticipate changes in the daily environment with an internal oscillator know as the circadian clock. Transcription is an important mechanism in maintaining these oscillations. Here we explore, using whole genome tiling arr ...
Interactions of cell-autonomous circadian oscillators with diurnal cycles govern the temporal compartmentalization of cell physiology in mammals. To understand the transcriptional and epigenetic basis of diurnal rhythms in mouse liver genome-wide, we gener ...
