Beta sheet propensity and the genetic code
Valentina Agoni
So far mutations analysis was performed in terms of transitions and trasversions, so on the basis of the molecule, or in terms of GC-content and isochors, through the quantificatio…
The role of Junk DNA
Valentina Agoni
Many efforts have been done in order to explain the role of junk DNA, but its function remain to be elucidated. In addition the GC-content variations among species still represent…
G-quadruplexes and mRNA localization
Valentina Agoni
G-quadruplexes represent a novelty for molecular biology. Their role inside the cell remains mysterious. We investigate a possible correlation with mRNA localization. In particular…
DNA evolved to minimize frameshift mutations
Valentina Agoni
Point mutations can surely be dangerous but what is worst than to lose the reading frame?! Does DNA evolved a strategy to try to limit frameshift mutations?! Here we investigate if…
New outcomes in mutation rates analysis
Valentina Agoni
The GC-content is very variable in different genome regions and species but although many hypothesis we still do not know the reason why. Here we show that a relationship exists wi…
Insights Into Quantitative Biology: analysis of cellular adaptation
Valentina Agoni
In the last years many powerful techniques have emerged to measure protein interactions as well as gene expression. Many progresses have been done since the introduction of these t…
Quantum walks and signal transduction pathways
Valentina Agoni
Signal transduction pathways recover a crucial role in cellular processes: they represent a connection between environmental conditions and cellular reactions. There are many pathw…
