  2. Gene regulatory network - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gene_regulatory_network

    Example of a regulatory network. The nodes of this network can represent genes, proteins, mRNAs, protein/protein complexes or cellular processes. Nodes that are depicted as lying along vertical lines are associated with the cell/environment interfaces, while the others are free-floating and can diffuse. Edges between nodes represent ...

  3. Central dogma of molecular biology - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Central_dogma_of_molecular...

    A second version of the central dogma is popular but incorrect. This is the simplistic DNA → RNA → protein pathway published by James Watson in the first edition of The Molecular Biology of the Gene (1965). Watson's version differs from Crick's because Watson describes a two-step (DNA → RNA and RNA → protein) process as the central ...

  4. Metabolic pathway - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metabolic_pathway

    An example of a coupled reaction is the phosphorylation of fructose-6-phosphate to form the intermediate fructose-1,6-bisphosphate by the enzyme phosphofructokinase accompanied by the hydrolysis of ATP in the pathway of glycolysis. The resulting chemical reaction within the metabolic pathway is highly thermodynamically favorable and, as a ...

  5. Pathway analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pathway_analysis

    Pathway resources and types of pathway analysis using databases like KEGG, Reactome and WikiPathways. [1]Pathway is the term from molecular biology for a curated schematic representation of a well characterized segment of the molecular physiological machinery, such as a metabolic pathway describing an enzymatic process within a cell or tissue or a signaling pathway model representing a ...

  6. Transcellular transport - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transcellular_transport

    Examples of molecules that follow this process are potassium K +, sodium Na +, and calcium Ca 2+. A place in the human body where this occurs is in the intestines with the uptake of glucose . Secondary active transport is when one solute moves down the electrochemical gradient to produce enough energy to force the transport of another solute ...

  7. Hedgehog signaling pathway - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hedgehog_signaling_pathway

    The Hedgehog signaling pathway is a signaling pathway that transmits information to embryonic cells required for proper cell differentiation.Different parts of the embryo have different concentrations of hedgehog signaling proteins.

  8. Endosome - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Endosome

    For example, in epithelial cells, a special process called transcytosis allows some materials to enter one side of a cell and exit from the opposite side. Also, in some circumstances, late endosomes/MVBs fuse with the plasma membrane instead of with lysosomes, releasing the lumenal vesicles, now called exosomes , into the extracellular medium.

  9. Heuristic-systematic model of information processing

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heuristic-systematic_model...

    These two routes of processing define related theories behind attitude change. In ELM, the central route is reflective and requires a willingness to process and think about the message. The peripheral route occurs when attitudes are formed without extensive thought, but more from mental shortcuts, credibility, and appearance cues. The route of ...
