ABSTRACT
Recent work has presented logical models and showed the benefits of applying logical approaches to studying the dynamics of biological networks. In this work, we develop a methodology for automating the design of such models by utilizing methods and algorithms from the field of electronic design automation. We anticipate that automated discrete model development will greatly improve the efficiency of qualitative analysis of biological networks.

An algorithm for modularization of MAPK and calcium signaling pathways: Comparative analysis among different species
Signaling pathways are large complex biochemical networks. It is difficult to analyze the underlying mechanism of such networks as a whole. In the present article, we have proposed an algorithm for modularization of signal transduction pathways. Unlike ...
Synthetic biology of cell signaling
Synthetic biology often takes cues from complex natural networks and pathways to create novel biological systems. The design modalities used in synthetic systems generally follow the different classes of gene regulation in cells such as transcriptional, ...
Evidence for the relationship between the regulatory effects of microRNAs and attack robustness of biological networks
It has been previously suggested that microRNAs (miRNAs) have a tendency to regulate the important components of biological networks. The goal of the present study was to systematically test if one can establish a relationship between miRNA targets and ...
