Ultrasensitive response motifs: basic amplifiers in molecular signalling networks
Multi-component signal transduction pathways and gene regulatory circuits underpin integrated cellular responses to perturbations. A recurring set of network motifs serve as the basic building blocks of these molecular signalling networks. This review focuses on ultrasensitive response motifs (URMs) that amplify small percentage changes in the input signal into larger percentage changes in the ...
متن کاملFrom components to regulatory motifs in signalling networks.
The developments in biochemistry and molecular biology over the past 30 years have produced an impressive parts list of cellular components. It has become increasingly clear that we need to understand how components come together to form systems. One area where this approach has been growing is cell signalling research. Here, instead of focusing on individual or small groups of signalling prote...
متن کاملDirect Response Analysis in cellular signalling networks.
Direct Response Analysis is a general computational tool for quantifying direct functional interactions between components in cellular signalling systems from experimental perturbations and measurements alone. This paper aims to reveal the biological meaning of the direct response coefficients obtained upon applying DRA to simple Michaelis-Menten type proteomic and gene regulatory systems. Thes...
متن کاملMotifs in Brain Networks
Complex brains have evolved a highly efficient network architecture whose structural connectivity is capable of generating a large repertoire of functional states. We detect characteristic network building blocks (structural and functional motifs) in neuroanatomical data sets and identify a small set of structural motifs that occur in significantly increased numbers. Our analysis suggests the h...
متن کاملDiscovering regulatory and signalling circuits in molecular interaction networks
MOTIVATION In model organisms such as yeast, large databases of protein-protein and protein-DNA interactions have become an extremely important resource for the study of protein function, evolution, and gene regulatory dynamics. In this paper we demonstrate that by integrating these interactions with widely-available mRNA expression data, it is possible to generate concrete hypotheses for the u...
