Here, pathway and genomic neighbour data are used to assign genes to these ‘orphan enzymes,’ and the predictions are validated with experimental assays and genome-scale metabolic modelling. Takuji Yamada, Alison S Waller, Jeroen Raes, Aleksej Zelezniak, Nadia Perchat, Alain Perret, Marcel Salanoubat, Kiran R Patil, Jean Weissenbach & Peer Bork Molecular Systems Biology 8:581; doi:10.1038/msb.2012.13; published 8 May 2012 Full Text | PDF | Supp. Inf. | Review Process Research Article A dynamical model of the spindle position checkpoint The spindle position checkpoint (SPOC) is an important surveillance mechanism in the budding yeast cell cycle. An integrated approach, combining quantitative experimental cell biology with mathematical modeling, reveals how the SPOC inhibits mitotic exit at the molecular level.
