text: Cell-cell contact formation constitutes an essential step in evolution, leading
to the differentiation of specialized cell types. However, remarkably little is
known about whether and how the interplay between contact formation and fate specification
affects development. Here, we identify a positive feedback loop between cell-cell
contact duration, morphogen signaling, and mesendoderm cell-fate specification
during zebrafish gastrulation. We show that long-lasting cell-cell contacts enhance
the competence of prechordal plate (ppl) progenitor cells to respond to Nodal
signaling, required for ppl cell-fate specification. We further show that Nodal
signaling promotes ppl cell-cell contact duration, generating a positive feedback
loop between ppl cell-cell contact duration and cell-fate specification. Finally,
by combining mathematical modeling and experimentation, we show that this feedback
determines whether anterior axial mesendoderm cells become ppl or, instead, turn
into endoderm. Thus, the interdependent activities of cell-cell signaling and
contact formation control fate diversification within the developing embryo.

text: In many applications, it is desirable to extract only the relevant aspects
of data. A principled way to do this is the information bottleneck (IB) method,
where one seeks a code that maximises information about a relevance variable,
Y, while constraining the information encoded about the original data, X. Unfortunately
however, the IB method is computationally demanding when data are high-dimensional
and/or non-gaussian. Here we propose an approximate variational scheme for maximising
a lower bound on the IB objective, analogous to variational EM. Using this method,
we derive an IB algorithm to recover features that are both relevant and sparse.
Finally, we demonstrate how kernelised versions of the algorithm can be used to
address a broad range of problems with non-linear relation between X and Y.

text: Jointly characterizing neural responses in terms of several external variables
promises novel insights into circuit function, but remains computationally prohibitive
in practice. Here we use gaussian process (GP) priors and exploit recent advances
in fast GP inference and learning based on Kronecker methods, to efficiently estimate
multidimensional nonlinear tuning functions. Our estimator require considerably
less data than traditional methods and further provides principled uncertainty
estimates. We apply these tools to hippocampal recordings during open field exploration
and use them to characterize the joint dependence of CA1 responses on the position
of the animal and several other variables, including the animal\'s speed, direction
of motion, and network oscillations.Our results provide an unprecedentedly detailed
quantification of the tuning of hippocampal neurons. The model\'s generality suggests
that our approach can be used to estimate neural response properties in other
brain regions.

text: Continuous-time Markov chain (CTMC) models have become a central tool for
understanding the dynamics of complex reaction networks and the importance of
stochasticity in the underlying biochemical processes. When such models are employed
to answer questions in applications, in order to ensure that the model provides
a sufficiently accurate representation of the real system, it is of vital importance
that the model parameters are inferred from real measured data. This, however,
is often a formidable task and all of the existing methods fail in one case or
the other, usually because the underlying CTMC model is high-dimensional and computationally
difficult to analyze. The parameter inference methods that tend to scale best
in the dimension of the CTMC are based on so-called moment closure approximations.
However, there exists a large number of different moment closure approximations
and it is typically hard to say a priori which of the approximations is the most
suitable for the inference procedure. Here, we propose a moment-based parameter
inference method that automatically chooses the most appropriate moment closure
method. Accordingly, contrary to existing methods, the user is not required to
be experienced in moment closure techniques. In addition to that, our method adaptively
changes the approximation during the parameter inference to ensure that always
the best approximation is used, even in cases where different approximations are
best in different regions of the parameter space. © 2016 Elsevier Ireland Ltd

text: Across the nervous system, certain population spiking patterns are observed
far more frequently than others. A hypothesis about this structure is that these
collective activity patterns function as population codewords–collective modes–carrying
information distinct from that of any single cell. We investigate this phenomenon
in recordings of ∼150 retinal ganglion cells, the retina’s output. We develop
a novel statistical model that decomposes the population response into modes;
it predicts the distribution of spiking activity in the ganglion cell population
with high accuracy. We found that the modes represent localized features of the
visual stimulus that are distinct from the features represented by single neurons.
Modes form clusters of activity states that are readily discriminated from one
another. When we repeated the same visual stimulus, we found that the same mode
was robustly elicited. These results suggest that retinal ganglion cells’ collective
signaling is endowed with a form of error-correcting code–a principle that may
hold in brain areas beyond retina.

text: Haemophilus haemolyticus has been recently discovered to have the potential
to cause invasive disease. It is closely related to nontypeable Haemophilus influenzae
(NT H. influenzae). NT H. influenzae and H. haemolyticus are often misidentified
because none of the existing tests targeting the known phenotypes of H. haemolyticus
are able to specifically identify H. haemolyticus. Through comparative genomic
analysis of H. haemolyticus and NT H. influenzae, we identified genes unique to
H. haemolyticus that can be used as targets for the identification of H. haemolyticus.
A real-time PCR targeting purT (encoding phosphoribosylglycinamide formyltransferase
2 in the purine synthesis pathway) was developed and evaluated. The lower limit
of detection was 40 genomes/PCR; the sensitivity and specificity in detecting
H. haemolyticus were 98.9% and 97%, respectively. To improve the discrimination
of H. haemolyticus and NT H. influenzae, a testing scheme combining two targets
(H. haemolyticus purT and H. influenzae hpd, encoding protein D lipoprotein) was
also evaluated and showed 96.7% sensitivity and 98.2% specificity for the identification
of H. haemolyticus and 92.8% sensitivity and 100% specificity for the identification
of H. influenzae, respectively. The dual-target testing scheme can be used for
the diagnosis and surveillance of infection and disease caused by H. haemolyticus
and NT H. influenzae.

text: 'With the accelerated development of robot technologies, optimal control becomes
one of the central themes of research. In traditional approaches, the controller,
by its internal functionality, finds appropriate actions on the basis of the history
of sensor values, guided by the goals, intentions, objectives, learning schemes,
and so forth. While very successful with classical robots, these methods run into
severe difficulties when applied to soft robots, a new field of robotics with
large interest for human-robot interaction. We claim that a novel controller paradigm
opens new perspective for this field. This paper applies a recently developed
neuro controller with differential extrinsic synaptic plasticity to a muscle-tendon
driven arm-shoulder system from the Myorobotics toolkit. In the experiments, we
observe a vast variety of self-organized behavior patterns: when left alone, the
arm realizes pseudo-random sequences of different poses. By applying physical
forces, the system can be entrained into definite motion patterns like wiping
a table. Most interestingly, after attaching an object, the controller gets in
a functional resonance with the object''s internal dynamics, starting to shake
spontaneously bottles half-filled with water or sensitively driving an attached
pendulum into a circular mode. When attached to the crank of a wheel the neural
system independently develops to rotate it. In this way, the robot discovers affordances
of objects its body is interacting with.'

text: Theoretical and numerical aspects of aerodynamic efficiency of propulsion
systems coupled to the boundary layer of a fuselage are studied. We discuss the
effects of local flow fields, which are affected both by conservative flow acceleration
as well as total pressure losses, on the efficiency of boundary layer immersed
propulsion devices. We introduce the concept of a boundary layer retardation turbine
that helps reduce skin friction over the fuselage. We numerically investigate
efficiency gains offered by boundary layer and wake interacting devices. We discuss
the results in terms of a total energy consumption framework and show that efficiency
gains of any device depend on all the other elements of the propulsion system.

text: A crucial step in the regulation of gene expression is binding of transcription
factor (TF) proteins to regulatory sites along the DNA. But transcription factors
act at nanomolar concentrations, and noise due to random arrival of these molecules
at their binding sites can severely limit the precision of regulation. Recent
work on the optimization of information flow through regulatory networks indicates
that the lower end of the dynamic range of concentrations is simply inaccessible,
overwhelmed by the impact of this noise. Motivated by the behavior of homeodomain
proteins, such as the maternal morphogen Bicoid in the fruit fly embryo, we suggest
a scheme in which transcription factors also act as indirect translational regulators,
binding to the mRNA of other regulatory proteins. Intuitively, each mRNA molecule
acts as an independent sensor of the input concentration, and averaging over these
multiple sensors reduces the noise. We analyze information flow through this scheme
and identify conditions under which it outperforms direct transcriptional regulation.
Our results suggest that the dual role of homeodomain proteins is not just a historical
accident, but a solution to a crucial physics problem in the regulation of gene
expression.

text: Cell polarity refers to a functional spatial organization of proteins that
is crucial for the control of essential cellular processes such as growth and
division. To establish polarity, cells rely on elaborate regulation networks that
control the distribution of proteins at the cell membrane. In fission yeast cells,
a microtubule-dependent network has been identified that polarizes the distribution
of signaling proteins that restricts growth to cell ends and targets the cytokinetic
machinery to the middle of the cell. Although many molecular components have been
shown to play a role in this network, it remains unknown which molecular functionalities
are minimally required to establish a polarized protein distribution in this system.
Here we show that a membrane-binding protein fragment, which distributes homogeneously
in wild-type fission yeast cells, can be made to concentrate at cell ends by attaching
it to a cytoplasmic microtubule end-binding protein. This concentration results
in a polarized pattern of chimera proteins with a spatial extension that is very
reminiscent of natural polarity patterns in fission yeast. However, chimera levels
fluctuate in response to microtubule dynamics, and disruption of microtubules
leads to disappearance of the pattern. Numerical simulations confirm that the
combined functionality of membrane anchoring and microtubule tip affinity is in
principle sufficient to create polarized patterns. Our chimera protein may thus
represent a simple molecular functionality that is able to polarize the membrane,
onto which additional layers of molecular complexity may be built to provide the
temporal robustness that is typical of natural polarity patterns.

text: Life depends as much on the flow of information as on the flow of energy.
Here we review the many efforts to make this intuition precise. Starting with
the building blocks of information theory, we explore examples where it has been
possible to measure, directly, the flow of information in biological networks,
or more generally where information-theoretic ideas have been used to guide the
analysis of experiments. Systems of interest range from single molecules (the
sequence diversity in families of proteins) to groups of organisms (the distribution
of velocities in flocks of birds), and all scales in between. Many of these analyses
are motivated by the idea that biological systems may have evolved to optimize
the gathering and representation of information, and we review the experimental
evidence for this optimization, again across a wide range of scales.

text: In this work, the Gardner problem of inferring interactions and fields for
an Ising neural network from given patterns under a local stability hypothesis
is addressed under a dual perspective. By means of duality arguments, an integer
linear system is defined whose solution space is the dual of the Gardner space
and whose solutions represent mutually unstable patterns. We propose and discuss
Monte Carlo methods in order to find and remove unstable patterns and uniformly
sample the space of interactions thereafter. We illustrate the problem on a set
of real data and perform ensemble calculation that shows how the emergence of
phase dominated by unstable patterns can be triggered in a nonlinear discontinuous
way.

text: 'Cortical networks exhibit ‘global oscillations’, in which neural spike times
are entrained to an underlying oscillatory rhythm, but where individual neurons
fire irregularly, on only a fraction of cycles. While the network dynamics underlying
global oscillations have been well characterised, their function is debated. Here,
we show that such global oscillations are a direct consequence of optimal efficient
coding in spiking networks with synaptic delays and noise. To avoid firing unnecessary
spikes, neurons need to share information about the network state. Ideally, membrane
potentials should be strongly correlated and reflect a ‘prediction error’ while
the spikes themselves are uncorrelated and occur rarely. We show that the most
efficient representation is when: (i) spike times are entrained to a global Gamma
rhythm (implying a consistent representation of the error); but (ii) few neurons
fire on each cycle (implying high efficiency), while (iii) excitation and inhibition
are tightly balanced. This suggests that cortical networks exhibiting such dynamics
are tuned to achieve a maximally efficient population code.'

text: A crucial step in the early development of multicellular organisms involves
the establishment of spatial patterns of gene expression which later direct proliferating
cells to take on different cell fates. These patterns enable the cells to infer
their global position within a tissue or an organism by reading out local gene
expression levels. The patterning system is thus said to encode positional information,
a concept that was formalized recently in the framework of information theory.
Here we introduce a toy model of patterning in one spatial dimension, which can
be seen as an extension of Wolpert's paradigmatic "French Flag" model,
to patterning by several interacting, spatially coupled genes subject to intrinsic
and extrinsic noise. Our model, a variant of an Ising spin system, allows us to
systematically explore expression patterns that optimally encode positional information.
We find that optimal patterning systems use positional cues, as in the French
Flag model, together with gene-gene interactions to generate combinatorial codes
for position which we call "Counter" patterns. Counter patterns can
also be stabilized against noise and variations in system size or morphogen dosage
by longer-range spatial interactions of the type invoked in the Turing model.
The simple setup proposed here qualitatively captures many of the experimentally
observed properties of biological patterning systems and allows them to be studied
in a single, theoretically consistent framework.

text: We developed a competition-based screening strategy to identify compounds
that invert the selective advantage of antibiotic resistance. Using our assay,
we screened over 19,000 compounds for the ability to select against the TetA tetracycline-resistance
efflux pump in Escherichia coli and identified two hits, β-thujaplicin and disulfiram.
Treating a tetracycline-resistant population with β-thujaplicin selects for loss
of the resistance gene, enabling an effective second-phase treatment with doxycycline.

text: 'In recent years, several biomolecular systems have been shown to be scale-invariant
(SI), i.e. to show the same output dynamics when exposed to geometrically scaled
input signals (u → pu, p > 0) after pre-adaptation to accordingly scaled constant
inputs. In this article, we show that SI systems-as well as systems invariant
with respect to other input transformations-can realize nonlinear differential
operators: when excited by inputs obeying functional forms characteristic for
a given class of invariant systems, the systems'' outputs converge to constant
values directly quantifying the speed of the input.'

text: Antibiotic-sensitive and -resistant bacteria coexist in natural environments
with low, if detectable, antibiotic concentrations. Except possibly around localized
antibiotic sources, where resistance can provide a strong advantage, bacterial
fitness is dominated by stresses unaffected by resistance to the antibiotic. How
do such mixed and heterogeneous conditions influence the selective advantage or
disadvantage of antibiotic resistance? Here we find that sub-inhibitory levels
of tetracyclines potentiate selection for or against tetracycline resistance around
localized sources of almost any toxin or stress. Furthermore, certain stresses
generate alternating rings of selection for and against resistance around a localized
source of the antibiotic. In these conditions, localized antibiotic sources, even
at high strengths, can actually produce a net selection against resistance to
the antibiotic. Our results show that interactions between the effects of an antibiotic
and other stresses in inhomogeneous environments can generate pervasive, complex
patterns of selection both for and against antibiotic resistance.

text: A key aspect of bacterial survival is the ability to evolve while migrating
across spatially varying environmental challenges. Laboratory experiments, however,
often study evolution in well-mixed systems. Here, we introduce an experimental
device, the microbial evolution and growth arena (MEGA)-plate, in which bacteria
spread and evolved on a large antibiotic landscape (120 × 60 centimeters) that
allowed visual observation of mutation and selection in a migrating bacterial
front.While resistance increased consistently, multiple coexisting lineages diversified
both phenotypically and genotypically. Analyzing mutants at and behind the propagating
front,we found that evolution is not always led by the most resistant mutants;
highly resistant mutants may be trapped behindmore sensitive lineages.TheMEGA-plate
provides a versatile platformfor studying microbial adaption and directly visualizing
evolutionary dynamics.

text: 'Gene regulation relies on the specificity of transcription factor (TF)–DNA
interactions. Limited specificity may lead to crosstalk: a regulatory state in
which a gene is either incorrectly activated due to noncognate TF–DNA interactions
or remains erroneously inactive. As each TF can have numerous interactions with
noncognate cis-regulatory elements, crosstalk is inherently a global problem,
yet has previously not been studied as such. We construct a theoretical framework
to analyse the effects of global crosstalk on gene regulation. We find that crosstalk
presents a significant challenge for organisms with low-specificity TFs, such
as metazoans. Crosstalk is not easily mitigated by known regulatory schemes acting
at equilibrium, including variants of cooperativity and combinatorial regulation.
Our results suggest that crosstalk imposes a previously unexplored global constraint
on the functioning and evolution of regulatory networks, which is qualitatively
distinct from the known constraints that act at the level of individual gene regulatory
elements.'
