The paper develops a dynamical systems model to study interactions among Mimiviruses, virophages, and transpovirons, finding oscillatory behavior but unclear biological mechanisms for transpoviron persistence.

The paper studies noise-filtering properties of gene regulatory network motifs in animal development and finds that these systems do not reduce noise, but diffusion and colony size may help synchronize gene expression.

The paper uses computational modeling to identify three-node gene regulatory network topologies capable of generating striped gene expression patterns in a 1-D morphogenetic field.
