Systems biology approach to bioremediation.
Bioremediation has historically been approached as a 'black box' in terms of our fundamental understanding. Thus it succeeds and fails, seldom without a complete understanding of why. Systems biology is an integrated research approach to study complex biological systems, by investigating interactions and networks at the molecular, cellular, community, and ecosystem level. The knowledge of these...
متن کاملSystems Biology Approach to Bioremediation of Nitroaromatics: Constraint-Based Analysis of 2,4,6-Trinitrotoluene Biotransformation by Escherichia coli.
Microbial remediation of nitroaromatic compounds (NACs) is a promising environmentally friendly and cost-effective approach to the removal of these life-threating agents. Escherichia coli (E. coli) has shown remarkable capability for the biotransformation of 2,4,6-trinitro-toluene (TNT). Efforts to develop E. coli as an efficient TNT degrading biocatalyst will benefit from holistic flux-level d...
متن کاملMolecular profiles to biology and pathways: a systems biology approach
Interpreting molecular profiles in a biological context requires specialized analysis strategies. Initially, lists of relevant genes were screened to identify enriched concepts associated with pathways or specific molecular processes. However, the shortcoming of interpreting gene lists by using predefined sets of genes has resulted in the development of novel methods that heavily rely on networ...
متن کاملThe Complex Adaptive Systems Approach to Biology
Statistical physics has accustomed us to mathematical descriptions of systems with a large number of components. The thermodynamic properties of ideal gases were understood as early as the end of the 19th century, while those of solids were understood at the beginning of the 20th century. In both cases, two important properties make modeling easy: B These are systems in which all of the compone...
متن کاملEndobiogeny: A Global Approach to Systems Biology
THE BIOMARKERS Experimental and Clinical Basis for the Biomarkers Used in the Biology of Functions Endobiogeny and the biology of functions are based on four scientific concepts that are known and generally accepted: (1) human physiology is complex and multifactorial and exhibits the properties of a system; (2) the endocrine system manages metabolism, which is the basis of the continuity of lif...
