Product Description
The biological interactions of living organisms, and protein-protein interactions in particular, are astonishingly diverse and present numerous challenges to modern biomolecular research because of their complexity. Analysis of patterns and principles governing these interactions has prompted a rapid development of computational methods to identify protein interaction partners and to understand the roles of individual components of protein interaction networks in cell functions.This book integrates different approaches from bioinformatics, biochemistry, computational analysis and systems biology to offer the reader a comprehensive global view of the diverse data on protein-protein interactions and protein interaction networks. It brings together the descriptions of experimental techniques and expounds on different computational algorithms for protein network analysis and prediction of protein and domain interactions, with each chapter containing a description of the problem, a review of methods and algorithms, a list of resources and current conclusions.Features⢠Reviews experimental techniques for identification of protein interactions⢠Discusses protein interaction databases and methods of integrating data from diverse sources⢠Describes computational methods to predict protein and domain interaction partners⢠Explores the properties of interaction interfaces and highlights approaches to model the assembly of protein complexes⢠Examines the topological and dynamical properties of protein interaction networks and presents the tools for comparative analysis of these networksWritten by leading experts,Protein-protein Interactions and Networksprovides a broad, thorough and multidisciplinary coverage of this field. It will be invaluable to researchers from academia and the bioinformatics industry, as well as an excellent auxiliary text for graduate students studying the topic. |

| Systems Biology: Philosophical Foundations
by Fred Boogerd (Editor), Frank J. Bruggeman (Editor), Jan-Hendrik S. Hofmeyr (Editor), H.V. Westerhoff (Editor)
Systems biology is a vigorous and expanding discipline, in many ways a successor to genomics and perhaps unprecedented in its combination of biology with a great many other sciences, from physics to ecology, from mathematics to medicine, and from philosophy to chemistry. Studying the philosophical foundations of systems biology may resolve a longer standing issue, i.e., the extent to which Biology is entitled to its own scientific foundations rather than being dominated by existing...

| Systems Biology: Properties of Reconstructed Networks
by Bernhard O. Palsson (Author)
Genome sequences are now available that enable us to determine the biological components that make up a cell or an organism. The new discipline of systems biology examines how these components interact and form networks, and how the networks generate whole cell functions corresponding to observable phenotypes. This textbook describes how to model networks, determine their properties, and relate these to phenotypic functions. Some knowledge of linear algebra and biochemistry is required, since...
