Here, we investigate how a ubiquitous selection pressure, predation, affects selection for cooperation in the bacterium Pseudomonas aeruginosa, which cooperates by secreting and responding to quorum sensing (QS) signal molecules in the surrounding environment [ 4].
We tested this hypothesis using experimental populations of the bacterium Pseudomonas aeruginosa, which cooperate by producing iron-scavenging siderophores and, in this context, punish non-cooperators with toxins.
The parallel searches are carried out by differently configured instances of a tabu search algorithm, which cooperate by the exchange of (best) solutions at the end of defined search phases.
But the film also takes issue with what Mr. Gibney considers shabby treatment of Mr. Assange by The Times, which cooperated with him in publishing many WikiLeaks revelations, but later described him with what Mr. Gibney called "derision".
A Mobile Ad hoc Network (MANET) is a group of wireless mobile terminals, which cooperate together by routing packets to each other on a temporary network.
Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) [1] consist of a large amount of sensor nodes which cooperate among themselves by wireless communications to solve problems in fields such as emergency response systems, military field operations, and environment monitoring systems.
PKM splicing in cancer cells is modulated by hnRNP A1, hnRNP A2, and hnRNP I/PTB, which cooperate to promote splicing of PKM2 by binding to sequences flanking exon 9 and repressing its inclusion [ 100, 101].
The autophagic process is finely regulated by several proteins, which cooperate to coordinate the nucleation, elongation and degradation of autophagosomes in the lysosomes (Klionsky et al., 2010), and are very well conserved between humans and nematodes.
WRC recruitment and its activation at the membrane needed direct binding by an Arf GTPase which cooperates with Rac1 to elicit actin polymerization.
As an example, animals which cooperate to remove ectoparasites from each other by allogrooming have formerly been thought to be in a Prisoner's Dilemma [ 31, 32].
