And here is the link to access the whole pdf. Enjoy!

I strongly believe that focusing on information & computation during Development provides an important framework, that encapsulates the genetic, chemistry & mechanics, but focusses on organisation, dynamics & logic.

AMPK signalling integrated in growth control - Nature Cell Biology
The AMP-dependent protein kinase AMPK is thought to be activated only when cellular energy levels are low. However, a study now finds that intracellular AMP is generated from extracellular adenosine in an intricate growth signalling cascade, explaining how AMPK can be regulated by extracellular cues.
