Sender–receiver systems and applying information theory for quantitative synthetic biology
Sender-receiver (S-R) systems abound in biology, with communication systems sending information in various forms. Information theory provides a quantitative basis for analysing these processes and is being applied to study natural genetic, enzymatic and neural networks. Recent advances in synthetic biology are providing us with a wealth of artificial S-R systems, giving us quantitative control ...
متن کاملInformation Technology for Synthetic Biology
This short tutorial summarizes the type of information technology that is crucial to ensure progress in synthetic biology. After a brief introduction about the emerging field of synthetic biology, I will explain its importance as an interdisciplinary area between life science and computer science, by showing how life and information can coevolve. I will then explain more about synthetic biology...
متن کاملPetri Nets for Systems and Synthetic Biology
We give a description of a Petri net-based framework for modelling and analysing biochemical pathways, which unifies the qualitative, stochastic and continuous paradigms. Each perspective adds its contribution to the understanding of the system, thus the three approaches do not compete, but complement each other. We illustrate our approach by applying it to an extended model of the three stage ...
متن کاملAn Executable Biology Methodology for Systems and Synthetic Biology
In this paper we introduce a stochastic executable biology methodology that can be used for systems and synthetic biology research. Our methodology is based on a rigorous computational formalism, P systems, that capture the three essential components of living systems: membranes, information molecules (e.g. DNA, RNA, amino acid sequences) and metabolism. The mathematical structure of our formal...
متن کاملControl theory meets synthetic biology.
The past several years have witnessed an increased presence of control theoretic concepts in synthetic biology. This review presents an organized summary of how these control design concepts have been applied to tackle a variety of problems faced when building synthetic biomolecular circuits in living cells. In particular, we describe success stories that demonstrate how simple or more elaborat...
