Evolving Sensitivity Balances Boolean Networks
We investigate the sensitivity of Boolean Networks (BNs) to mutations. We are interested in Boolean Networks as a model of Gene Regulatory Networks (GRNs). We adopt Ribeiro and Kauffman's Ergodic Set and use it to study the long term dynamics of a BN. We define the sensitivity of a BN to be the mean change in its Ergodic Set structure under all possible loss of interaction mutations. In silico ...
متن کاملEvolving populations of random boolean networks
We investigate the adaptation of Random Boolean Networks that are a model for regulatory gene networks. The model considers a general genetic algorithm and a fitness function that takes into account the full network dynamical behavior.Our simulations shows a fast decrease on algorithm perfomance when we consider larger networks or networks with more complex dynamical behavior. Finally, we discu...
متن کاملEvolving Boolean Networks with RNA Editing
The editing of transcribed RNA by other molecules such that the form of the final product differs from that specified in the corresponding DNA sequence is ubiquitous. This paper uses an abstract, tunable Boolean genetic regulatory network model to explore aspects of RNA editing. In particular, it is shown how dynamically altering expressed sequences via a guide RNA-inspired mechanism can be sel...
متن کاملEvolving Boolean regulatory networks with epigenetic control
The significant role of epigenetic mechanisms within natural systems has become increasingly clear. This paper uses a recently presented abstract, tunable Boolean genetic regulatory network model to explore aspects of epigenetics. It is shown how dynamically controlling transcription via a DNA methylation-inspired mechanism can be selected for by simulated evolution under various single and mul...
متن کاملInference of Boolean Networks Using Sensitivity Regularization
The inference of genetic regulatory networks from global measurements of gene expressions is an important problem in computational biology. Recent studies suggest that such dynamical molecular systems are poised at a critical phase transition between an ordered and a disordered phase, affording the ability to balance stability and adaptability while coordinating complex macroscopic behavior. We...
