	abstract = {To describe the time course of cellular systems, we integrate ideas from thermodynamics and information theory to discuss the work needed to change the state of the cell. The biological example analyzed is experimental microarray transcription level oscillations of yeast in the different phases as characterized by oxygen consumption. Surprisal analysis was applied to identify groups of transcripts that oscillate in concert and thereby to compute changes in free energy with time. Three dominant transcript groups were identified by surprisal analysis. The groups correspond to the respiratory, early, and late reductive phases. Genes involved in ribosome biogenesis peaked at the respiratory phase. The work to prepare the state is shown to be the sum of the contributions of these groups. We paid particular attention to work requirements during ribosomal building, and the correlation with ATP levels and dissolved oxygen. The suggestion that cells in the respiratory phase likely build ribosomes, an energy intensive process, in preparation for protein production during the S phase of the cell cycle is validated by an experiment. Surprisal analysis thereby provided a useful tool for determining the synchronization of transcription events and energetics in a cell in real time.},
