Robustness and evolvability in genetic regulatory networks.
Living organisms are robust to a great variety of genetic changes. Gene regulation networks and metabolic pathways self-organize and reaccommodate to make the organism perform with stability and reliability under many point mutations, gene duplications and gene deletions. At the same time, living organisms are evolvable, which means that these kind of genetic perturbations can eventually make t...
متن کاملMicroRNAs Robustness in Genetic Regulatory Networks
The cell is an entity composed of several thousand types of interacting proteins. Our goal is to comprehend the cancer regulation mechanisms using the microRNAs. MicroRNAs are present in almost all genetic regulatory networks acting as inhibitors targeting mRNAs. In this paper, it is shown how the Artificial Intelligence description method functioning on the basis of Inductive Logic Programming...
متن کاملEvolutionary Robustness of Differentiation in Genetic Regulatory Networks
We investigate the ability of artificial Genetic Regulatory Networks (GRNs) to evolve differentiation. The proposed GRN model supports non-linear interaction between regulating factors, thereby facilitating the realization of complex regulatory logics. As a proof of concept we evolve GRNs of this kind to follow different pathways, producing two kinds of periodic dynamics in response to minimal ...
متن کاملRobustness and fragility of Boolean models for genetic regulatory networks.
Interactions between genes and gene products give rise to complex circuits that enable cells to process information and respond to external signals. Theoretical studies often describe these interactions using continuous, stochastic, or logical approaches. We propose a new modeling framework for gene regulatory networks, that combines the intuitive appeal of a qualitative description of gene sta...
متن کاملRobustness analysis of genetic regulatory networks affected by model uncertainty
A fundamental problem in systems biology consists of investigating robustness properties of genetic regulatory networks (GRNs) with respect to model uncertainty. This paper addresses this problem for GRNs where the coefficients are rationally affected by polytopic uncertainty, and where the saturation functions are not exactly known. First, it is shown that a condition for ensuring that the GRN...
