Statecharts for Gene Network Modeling
State diagrams (stategraphs) are suitable for describing the behavior of dynamic systems. However, when they are used to model large and complex systems, determining the states and transitions among them can be overwhelming, due to their flat, unstratified structure. In this article, we present the use of statecharts as a novel way of modeling complex gene networks. Statecharts extend conventio...
متن کاملQualitative Analysis of Gene Regulatory Networks using Network Motifs
We developed a method for analysing gene regulatory networks in a purely qualitative fashion. Behaviours of networks are captured as transition systems using propositions for gene states (ON or OFF), and those related to threshold values for gene activation/inhibition. Possible behaviours of networks are specified by logical formulae in Linear Temporal Logic (LTL). With this specification, it i...
متن کاملModeling regulatory motifs
Biological processes are mediated by specific interactions between cellular molecules (DNA, RNA, proteins, etc.). The molecular identification mark, or signature, required for precise and specific interactions between various biomolecules is not always clear, a comprehensive knowledge of which is critical not only for a mechanistic understanding of these interactions but also for therapeutic in...
متن کاملModeling Network Evolution Using Graph Motifs
Network structures are extremely important to the study of political science. Much of the data in its subfields are naturally represented as networks. This includes trade, diplomatic and conflict relationships. The social structure of several organization is also of interest to many researchers, such as the affiliations of legislators or the relationships among terrorist. A key aspect of studyi...
متن کاملAccelerating Gene Regulatory Network Modeling Using Grid-Based Simulation
Modeling gene regulatory networks has, in some cases, enabled biologists to predict cellular behavior long before such behavior can be experimentally validated. Unfortunately, the extent to which biologists can take advantage of these modeling techniques is limited by the computational complexity of gene regulatory network simulation algorithms. This study presents a new platform-independent, g...
