Regulation of Signal Duration and the Statistical Dynamics of Kinase Activation by Scaffold Proteins

comment:
前幾個月在讀Lehninger PoBC Signaling章節
被提醒scaffold proteins在signaling中扮演的角色
當時我覺得這東西在signal network相關理論發展是大有可為的
因為scaffold proteins把molecules在空間中的位置confined住了
temporal和spatial的因素都要考慮

這個問題是過去一年讀生化激發出的想法中
唯一我覺得both biologically and mathematically interesting的
沒想到已經有人著手在做了
而且是MIT的:)
MIT在我心目中的rating又重新回升了XD
