Biological pathways • Describe series of molecular events in living systems. • Important in understanding living systems, disease processes, effect of drugs or mutations on living systems. Annu. Rev. Biophys. Biomol. Struct. 27, 199-224 (1998)
Biological pathways • Map of pathways: Pathway database: KEGG http://www.genome.ad.jp/kegg/kegg2.html
Multiple biological pathways:Viral infection as an example How SARS coronavirus enters a cell and reproduce
Multiple biological pathways: Viral infection as an example Viral induced immune response: cytosine production Therapeutically relevant multiple pathways database http://xin.cz3.nus.edu.sg/group/trmp/trmp.asp

Simulation of a biological pathway • Computer method appears to be the only practical approach (mainly involving no more than a few dozen proteins) dx1/dt = k1- X2 - k1+ L x1 + w1 dx2/dt = k1+ L X1 - (k1- + k2 )x2 dx3/dt = k2 X2 + k3- X5 • L = Fas ligand, x1=ligand-free Fas surface receptor, x2=ligand-bound Fas surface receptor, x3=clustered ligand-bound Fas surface receptor, x4=FADD protein, x5=complex of FADD-Fas receptor Nature Biotech. 18, 768-774 (2000)
