Evolution, Interactions, and Biological Networks
T he study of networks has expanded rapidly over the last 10 years; networks are now widely recognized not only as outcomes of complex interactions, but as key determinants of structure, function, and dynamics in systems that span the biological, physical, and social sciences [1–4]. The " new science of networks " [5] has introduced novel paradigms of systems behavior, including small-world str...
متن کاملCombining biological networks to predict genetic interactions.
Genetic interactions define overlapping functions and compensatory pathways. In particular, synthetic sick or lethal (SSL) genetic interactions are important for understanding how an organism tolerates random mutation, i.e., genetic robustness. Comprehensive identification of SSL relationships remains far from complete in any organism, because mapping these networks is highly labor intensive. T...
متن کاملEvolution of Complex Modular Biological Networks
Biological networks have evolved to be highly functional within uncertain environments while remaining extremely adaptable. One of the main contributors to the robustness and evolvability of biological networks is believed to be their modularity of function, with modules defined as sets of genes that are strongly interconnected but whose function is separable from those of other modules. Here, ...
متن کاملRandom networks created by biological evolution.
We investigate a model of an evolving random network, introduced by us previously [Phys. Rev. Lett. 83, 5587 (1999)]. The model is a generalization of the Bak-Sneppen model of biological evolution, with the modification that the underlying network can evolve by adding and removing sites. The behavior and the averaged properties of the network depend on the parameter p, the probability to establ...
متن کاملMaximum Likelihood Quantization and Logical Networks for Modeling Biological Interactions
We address the computational problems of discretizing continuous random variables and identifying a logical network model to account for temporal dependencies among genes and environmental stimuli from high-throughput transcriptome data. These new algorithms were applied to real biological data from an analysis of the molecular response to alcohol. Our approach captures statistical interactions...
