Network Structure of Metabolic Pathways
networks (or graphs) consist of nodes and links between them. The number of links per node, which we call the class of the node, may vary between nodes, but in a homogeneous network the statistical distribution of links will be the same from region to region across the network. Classically, the distinction amongst homogeneous networks has been made between fully ordered networks, in which the n...
متن کاملVisual Network Analysis of Dynamic Metabolic Pathways
We extend our previous work on the exploration of static metabolic networks to evolving, and therefore dynamic, pathways. We apply our visualization software to data from a simulation of early metabolism. Thereby, we show that our technique allows us to test and argue for or against different scenarios for the evolution of metabolic pathways. This supports a profound and efficient analysis of t...
متن کاملNetwork Structure of Protein Folding Pathways
The classical approach to protein folding inspired by statistical mechanics avoids the high dimensional structure of the conformation space by using effective coordinates. Here we introduce a network approach to capture the statistical properties of the structure of conformation spaces. Conformations are represented as nodes of the network, while links are transitions via elementary rotations a...
متن کاملComputation of Extreme Pathways with Hierarchical Decompositions of Metabolic Network
Intrinsic hierarchical structure of metabolic networks has been recently revealed [1]. Particular hierarchical decompositions can even present a property of relative independence between its branches which has been shown to be of a biological relevance. Here we use this property for computational purposes. A recursive and parallelizable variant of the classical algorithm for computing extreme p...
متن کاملTracing ischemic memory by metabolic pathways: BMIPP and beyond
Myocardial ischemia (MI) resulting in infarction is an important cause of mortality and morbidity worldwide. Acute ischaemia rapidly impairs myocardial contractile function. Myocardial dysfunction persisting for several hours after transient non-lethal ischaemia, eventually resulting in full functional recovery is termed as myocardial stunning. Hibernation is now thought to be...
