The (asymptotic) degree distributions of the best known “scale free” network models are all similar and are independent of the seed graph used. Hence it has been tempting to assume that networks generated by these models are similar in general. In this paper we observe that several key topological features of such networks depend heavily on the specific model and the seed graph used. Furthermore,...
Understanding how individual proteins are organized into complexes and pathways is a significant current challenge. We introduce new algorithms to infer protein complexes by combining seed proteins with a confidence-weighted network. Two new stochastic methods use averaging over a probabilistic ensemble of networks, and the new deterministic method provides a deterministic ranking of prospective complex...
Peptide mass fingerprinting is a technique to identify a protein from its fragment masses obtained by mass spectrometry after enzymatic digestion. Recently, much attention has been given to the question of how to evaluate the significance of identifications; results have been developed mostly from a combinatorial perspective. In particular, existing methods generally do not capture the fact that the...
Recent genome wide studies in yeast have started to unravel the complex, combinatorial nature of transcriptional regulation in eukaryotic cells, including the concerted regulation of proteins involved in complex formation. In this work, we use a Bayesian evidence integration framework to assemble an integrated network, including both protein-DNA and protein-protein interactions, in a specific cellular...
Identifying gene functional modules is an important step towards elucidating gene functions at a global scale. In this paper, we introduce a simple method to construct gene co-expression networks from microarray data, and then propose an efficient spectral clustering algorithm to identify natural communities, which are relatively densely connected sub-graphs, in the network. To assess the effectiveness...
A linear discrete dynamic system model is constructed to represent the temporal interactions among significantly expressed genes in response to bioethanol conversion inhibitor 5-hydroxymethylfurfural for ethanologenic yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae. This study identifies the most significant linear difference equations for each gene in a network. A log-time domain interpolation addresses the non-uniform...
Glycosylation is one of the most common post-translational modifications (PTMs) of proteins, the characterization of which is commonly achieved utilizing mass spectrometry (MS). However, its applicability is currently limited by the lack of computational tools capable of autmoated interpretation of high throughput MS experiments which would allow the characterization of glycosylation sites and their...
Mapping intra-cellular signaling networks is a critical step in developing an understanding of and treatments for many devastating diseases. The predominant ways of discovering pathways in these networks are knockout and pharmacological inhibition experiments. However, experimental evidence for new pathways can be difficult to explain within existing maps of signaling networks. In this paper,...
Mass spectrometry (MS) is becoming a popular approach for quantifying the protein composition of complex samples. A great challenge for comparative proteomic profiling is to match corresponding peptide features from different experiments to ensure that the same protein intensities are correctly identified. Multi-dimensional data acquisition from liquid-chromatography mass spectrometry (LC-MS) makes...
