Metabolic pathways variability and sequence/networks comparisons [PDF]
Abstract Background In this work a simple method for the computation of relative similarities between homologous metabolic network modules is presented. The method is similar to classical sequence alignment and allows for the generation of phenotypic trees amenable to be compared with correspondent sequence based ...

Pathway Preserving Representation of Metabolic Networks [PDF]
AbstractImprovements in biological data acquisition and genomes sequencing now allow to reconstruct entire metabolic networks of many living organisms. The size and complexity of these networks prohibit manual drawing and thereby urge the need of dedicated visualization techniques.

Estimation of the number of extreme pathways for metabolic networks [PDF]
Abstract Background The set of extreme pathways (ExPa), {p i }, defines the convex basis vectors used for the mathematical characterization of the null space of the stoichiometric matrix for biochemical reaction networks.

Leveraging heterogeneous network embedding for metabolic pathway prediction [PDF]
AbstractMotivationMetabolic pathway reconstruction from genomic sequence information is a key step in predicting regulatory and functional potential of cells at the individual, population and community levels of organization. Although the most common methods for metabolic pathway reconstruction are gene-centric e.g.

Network structure of metabolic pathways [PDF]
networks (or graphs) consist of nodes and links between them. The number of links per node, which we call the class of the node, may vary between nodes, but in a homogeneous network the statistical distribution of links will be the same from region to region across the network.

Alterations in metabolic pathways and networks in Alzheimer’s disease [PDF]
The pathogenic mechanisms of Alzheimer's disease (AD) remain largely unknown and clinical trials have not demonstrated significant benefit. Biochemical characterization of AD and its prodromal phase may provide new diagnostic and therapeutic insights.

Drawing oriented metabolic pathways and networks [PDF]
Tradicionalment, les vies metabòliques s'han representat manualment o semiautomàticament, un procés que sovint requereix molt de temps així com ajustaments manuals substancials.

Pathway Tools Visualization of Organism-Scale Metabolic Networks [PDF]
Metabolomics, synthetic biology, and microbiome research demand information about organism-scale metabolic networks. The convergence of genome sequencing and computational inference of metabolic networks has enabled great progress toward satisfying that demand by generating metabolic reconstructions from the genomes of thousands of sequenced organisms.

Pathways and fluxes: exploring the plant metabolic network [PDF]
The transition from a pathway-centred view of plant metabolism to a network-wide perspective is still incomplete. Further progress in this direction requires tools to facilitate the structural description of the network on the basis of fully annotated genomes, techniques for modelling the properties of the network, and experimental methods for ...

A statistical mechanics description of environmental variability in metabolic networks [PDF]
Many of the chemical reactions that take place within a living cell are irreversible. Due to evolutionary pressures, the number of allowable reactions within these systems are highly constrained and thus the resulting metabolic networks display ...
