3 Systems Biology Approaches to Understanding and Predicting Fungal Virulence
The identification of fungal virulence factors and novel targets for therapeutic intervention are hindered by the rapid adaptability of pathogenic fungi to their host. One of the major goals of systems biology...

Modelling signalling pathways – a yeast approach
MAP kinase pathways are conserved signalling systems in eukaryotes that control stress responses, cell growth, and proliferation, as well as differentiation. Here, we discuss and compare the feedback control m...
