    Citation: BMC Bioinformatics 2008 9(Suppl 2):S2
  2. Brain, heart and skeletal muscle share similar properties of excitable tissue, featuring both discrete behavior (all-or-nothing response to electrical activation) and continuous behavior (recovery to rest foll...

    Authors: Ezio Bartocci, Flavio Corradini, Emilia Entcheva, Radu Grosu and Scott A Smolka
    Citation: BMC Bioinformatics 2008 9(Suppl 2):S3
  3. Baculovirus-expressed HIV-1 Pr55gag Virus-Like Particles (HIV-VLPs) induce maturation and activation of monocyte-derived dendritic cells (MDDCs) with a production of Th1- and Th2-specific cytokines.

    Authors: Luigi Buonaguro, Alessandro Monaco, Eleonora Aricò, Ena Wang, Maria Lina Tornesello, George K Lewis, Franco M Marincola and Franco M Buonaguro
    Citation: BMC Bioinformatics 2008 9(Suppl 2):S5
  4. Present-day ‘-omics’ technologies produce overwhelming amounts of data which include genome sequences, information on gene expression (transcripts and proteins) and on cell metabolic status. These data represent ...

    Citation: BMC Bioinformatics 2008 9(Suppl 2):S7
  5. Urokinase, its receptor and the integrins are functionally associated and involved in regulation of cell signaling, migration, adhesion and proliferation. No structural information is available on this potenti...

    Citation: BMC Bioinformatics 2008 9(Suppl 2):S8
  6. The ESTree database (db) is a collection of Prunus persica and Prunus dulcis EST sequences that in its current version encompasses 75,404 sequences from 3 almond and 19 peach libraries. Nine peach genotypes and f...

    Authors: Barbara Lazzari, Andrea Caprera, Alberto Vecchietti, Ivan Merelli, Francesca Barale, Luciano Milanesi, Alessandra Stella and Carlo Pozzi
    Citation: BMC Bioinformatics 2008 9(Suppl 2):S9
  7. Protein-protein interactions are at the basis of most cellular processes and crucial for many bio-technological applications. During the last few years the development of high-throughput technologies has produ...

    Authors: Paolo Marcatili, Giovanni Bussotti and Anna Tramontano
    Citation: BMC Bioinformatics 2008 9(Suppl 2):S11
  8. Microarray experiments enable simultaneous measurement of the expression levels of virtually all transcripts present in cells, thereby providing a ‘molecular picture’ of the cell state. On the other hand, the ...

    Authors: Margherita Mutarelli, Luigi Cicatiello, Lorenzo Ferraro, Olì MV Grober, Maria Ravo, Angelo M Facchiano, Claudia Angelini and Alessandro Weisz
    Citation: BMC Bioinformatics 2008 9(Suppl 2):S12
  9. Recent progresses in genotyping technologies allow the generation high-density genetic maps using hundreds of thousands of genetic markers for each DNA sample. The availability of this large amount of genotypi...

    Authors: Alessandro Orro, Guia Guffanti, Erika Salvi, Fabio Macciardi and Luciano Milanesi
    Citation: BMC Bioinformatics 2008 9(Suppl 2):S13
  10. In plant mitochondria, the post-transcriptional RNA editing process converts C to U at a number of specific sites of the mRNA sequence and usually restores phylogenetically conserved codons and the encoded ami...

    Authors: Ernesto Picardi and Carla Quagliariello
    Citation: BMC Bioinformatics 2008 9(Suppl 2):S14
  11. Web Services and Workflow Management Systems can support creation and deployment of network systems, able to automate data analysis and retrieval processes in biomedical research. Web Services have been implem...
