Computational economicsComputational Economics is an interdisciplinary research discipline that involves computer science, economics, and management science. This subject encompasses computational modeling of economic systems. Some of these areas are unique, while others established areas of economics by allowing robust data analytics and solutions of problems that would be arduous to research without computers and associated numerical methods.
Biochemical cascadeA biochemical cascade, also known as a signaling cascade or signaling pathway, is a series of chemical reactions that occur within a biological cell when initiated by a stimulus. This stimulus, known as a first messenger, acts on a receptor that is transduced to the cell interior through second messengers which amplify the signal and transfer it to effector molecules, causing the cell to respond to the initial stimulus. Most biochemical cascades are series of events, in which one event triggers the next, in a linear fashion.
PolynucléotideUn polynucléotide est un polymère constitué d'au moins treize monomères de nucléotides liés par covalence en formant une chaîne. Les acides nucléiques tels que l'acide ribonucléique (ARN) et l'acide désoxyribonucléique (ADN) sont des polynucléotides. upright=3|centre|vignette| Nomenclature des principaux nucléotides.Les nucléosides monophosphate, diphosphate et triphosphate sont des nucléotides. Si les polynucléotides biologiques ont avant tout un rôle génétique (ADN) et dans la biosynthèse des protéines (ARN), certains, appelés ribozymes, sont également doués d'activité catalytique à l'instar des enzymes.
