COMPUTATIONAL SYSTEMS BIOLOGY- Tools & aPPLICATION-Samik Ghosh (The System Biology Institute)

PART I

PATHWAY CURATION TOOLS AND APPLICATION

Complexity: Guess which body was not designed to stand turbulence?

Post genomic era has opened up huge database cataloguing the molecular parts of biological systems; Comprehansive knowledge of isolated systems available 'in vitro' and in vivo; Comprehanding paradigm shift

Computational Approach:

Model-Modify-Mine-Measure

Biological Modelling and simulation:

Body waeight> Tissue/cells > Protein > Genes (Top-Down: increasing complexity but Bottom-Up: increasing abstraction)

System biology Approach: network model construction (clinical data, animal models, biologicalliterature); network property analysis (pathway length distribution, node centrality distribution, network degree distribution); high granularity pathway dynamic modelling (celldesigner.org)

Computational Platform:

GN (graphical notation), SBML, CellDesigner.org, CellDesigner Applet, Public Donation Database




PART II
