Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents recent methods for Systems Genetics (SG) data analysis, applying them to a suite of simulated SG benchmark datasets. Each of the chapter authors received the same datasets to evaluate the performance of their method to better understand which algorithms are most useful for obtaining reliable models from SG datasets. The knowledge gained from this benchmarking study will ultimately allow these algorithms to be used with confidence for SG studies e.g. of complex human diseases or food crop improvement. The book is primarily intended for researchers with a background in the life sciences, not for computer scientists or statisticians.

Book System Identification Methods for Reverse Engineering Gene Regulatory Networks

Download or read book System Identification Methods for Reverse Engineering Gene Regulatory Networks written by Zhen Wang and published by . This book was released on 2010 with total page 158 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With the advent of high throughput measurement technologies, large scale gene expression data are available for analysis. Various computational methods have been introduced to analyze and predict meaningful molecular interactions from gene expression data. Such patterns can provide an understanding of the regulatory mechanisms in the cells. In the past, system identification algorithms have been extensively developed for engineering systems. These methods capture the dynamic input/output relationship of a system, provide a deterministic model of its function, and have reasonable computational requirements. In this work, two system identification methods are applied for reverse engineering of gene regulatory networks. The first method is based on an orthogonal search; it selects terms from a predefined set of gene expression profiles to best fit the expression levels of a given output gene. The second method consists of a few cascades, each of which includes a dynamic component and a static component. Multiple cascades are added in a parallel to reduce the difference of the estimated expression profiles with the actual ones. Gene regulatory networks can be constructed by defining the selected inputs as the regulators of the output. To assess the performance of the approaches, a temporal synthetic dataset is developed. Methods are then applied to this dataset as well as the Brainsim dataset, a popular simulated temporal gene expression data. Furthermore, the methods are also applied to a biological dataset in yeast Saccharomyces Cerevisiae. This dataset includes 14 cell-cycle regulated genes; their known cell cycle pathway is used as the target network structure, and the criteria sensitivity, precision, and specificity are calculated to evaluate the inferred networks through these two methods. Resulting networks are also compared with two previous studies in the literature on the same dataset.

Book Toward Reverse Engineering Spatiotemporal Gene Regulatory Networks of Nematostella Vectensis

Download or read book Toward Reverse Engineering Spatiotemporal Gene Regulatory Networks of Nematostella Vectensis written by Amir Masoud Abdol and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page 125 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over the last decade, the sea anemone Nematostella vectensis has become a popular model to study bilaterian evolution, development and more recently also regeneration. Understanding genetic interactions during the early development of N. vectensis is the first step toward unveiling the details of its early developmental processes, e.g., polarization, the formation of the blastula and initiation of the gastrulation process. Furthermore, the collective knowledge of gene interactions allows researchers to speculate about possible Gene Regulatory Networks (GRNs) governing each process. The knowledge of gene interactions also provides an opportunity to reverse engineer gene interactions in a GRN model which potentially leads to detailed understanding of the early developmental processes, e.g., pattern formation and the mechanics of gastrulation. There is still a limited amount of knowledge available regarding N. vectensis gene interactions and possible GRNs involved in each developmental process. This thesis introduces a method for extracting spatial gene expression profiles from in situ hybridization images of N. vectensis embryo. My collaborators and I have introduced a systematic procedure to combine and process the available data from different sources (e.g., in situ and qPCR) in order to understand gene interactions and reconstruct testable hypotheses for GRNs controlling development.

Book Analysis of Deterministic Cyclic Gene Regulatory Network Models with Delays

Download or read book Analysis of Deterministic Cyclic Gene Regulatory Network Models with Delays written by Mehmet Eren Ahsen and published by Birkhäuser. This book was released on 2015-02-25 with total page 104 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This brief examines a deterministic, ODE-based model for gene regulatory networks (GRN) that incorporates nonlinearities and time-delayed feedback. An introductory chapter provides some insights into molecular biology and GRNs. The mathematical tools necessary for studying the GRN model are then reviewed, in particular Hill functions and Schwarzian derivatives. One chapter is devoted to the analysis of GRNs under negative feedback with time delays and a special case of a homogenous GRN is considered. Asymptotic stability analysis of GRNs under positive feedback is then considered in a separate chapter, in which conditions leading to bi-stability are derived. Graduate and advanced undergraduate students and researchers in control engineering, applied mathematics, systems biology and synthetic biology will find this brief to be a clear and concise introduction to the modeling and analysis of GRNs.

Book A Computational Framework to Model and Learn Context specific Gene Regulatory Networks from Multi source Data

Download or read book A Computational Framework to Model and Learn Context specific Gene Regulatory Networks from Multi source Data written by Ina Sen and published by . This book was released on 2011 with total page 124 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Reverse engineering gene regulatory networks (GRNs) is an important problem in the domain of Systems Biology. Learning GRNs is challenging due to the inherent complexity of the real regulatory networks and the heterogeneity of samples in available biomedical data. Real world biological data are commonly collected from broad surveys (profiling studies) and aggregate highly heterogeneous biological samples. Popular methods to learn GRNs simplistically assume a single universal regulatory network corresponding to available data. They neglect regulatory network adaptation due to change in underlying conditions and cellular phenotype or both. This dissertation presents a novel computational framework to learn common regulatory interactions and networks underlying the different sets of relatively homogeneous samples from real world biological data. The characteristic set of samples/conditions and corresponding regulatory interactions defines the cellular context (context). Context, in this dissertation, represents the deterministic transcriptional activity within the specific cellular regulatory mechanism. The major contributions of this framework include - modeling and learning context specific GRNs; associating enriched samples with contexts to interpret contextual interactions using biological knowledge; pruning extraneous edges from the context-specific GRN to improve the precision of the final GRNs; integrating multisource data to learn inter and intra domain interactions and increase confidence in obtained GRNs; and finally, learning combinatorial conditioning factors from the data to identify regulatory cofactors. The framework, Expattern, was applied to both real world and synthetic data. Interesting insights were obtained into mechanism of action of drugs on analysis of NCI60 drug activity and gene expression data. Application to refractory cancer data and Glioblastoma multiforme yield GRNs that were readily annotated with context-specific phenotypic information. Refractory cancer GRNs also displayed associations between distinct cancers, not observed through only clustering. Performance comparisons on multi-context synthetic data show the framework Expattern performs better than other comparable methods.
