Neural Circuit Inference from Function to Structure
Advances in technology are opening new windows on the structural connectivity and functional dynamics of brain circuits. Quantitative frameworks are needed that integrate these data from anatomy and physiology. Here, we present a modeling approach that creates such a link. The goal is to infer the structure of a neural circuit from sparse neural recordings, using partial knowledge of its anatom...
متن کاملFrom Protein Structure to Function via Computational Tools and Approaches
Proteins are characterized by their amino acid sequence, their structure, and their function. A protein sequence folds into a unique structure, and similar sequences fold into similar structures. There are, however, exceptions to these rules, as detailed below. The important unit of structure is a domain – generally a single stretch of sequence (50–300 amino acids long) that interacts weakly wi...
متن کاملTechnology Mapping of Genetic Circuit Designs
Synthetic biology is a new field in which engineers, biologists, and chemists are working together to transform genetic engineering into an advanced engineering discipline, one in which the design and construction of novel genetic circuits are made possible through the application of engineering principles. This dissertation explores two engineering strategies to address the challenges of worki...
متن کاملMapping the convergence of genetic algorithms
Hybrid genetic algorithms have recently become very popular metaheuristic methods (Beasley [6]). Most genetic algorithms produce offspring by mating parents and attempt to improve the population makeup by replacing existing population members with superior offspring. In contrast, hybrid genetic algorithms, sometimes called memetic algorithms (Moscato [28]), incorporate some heuristic improvemen...
متن کاملFrom structure to function: the convergence of structure based models and co-evolutionary information.
Understanding protein folding and function is one of the most important problems in biological research. Energy landscape theory and the folding funnel concept have provided a framework to investigate the mechanisms associated to these processes. Since protein energy landscapes are in most cases minimally frustrated, structure based models (SMBs) have successfully determined the geometrical fea...
