“A key element of the GTL program is an integrated computing and technology infrastructure, which is essential for timely and affordable progress in research and in the development of biotechnological solutions. In fact, the new era of biology is as much about computing as it is about biology. Because of this synergism, GTL is a partnership between our two offices within DOE’s Office of Science—the Offices of Biological and Environmental Research and Advanced Scientific Computing Research. Only with sophisticated computational power and information management can we apply new technologies and the wealth of emerging data to a comprehensive analysis of the intricacies and interactions that underlie biology. Genome sequences furnish the blueprints,technologies can produce the data, and computing can relate enormous data sets to models linking genome sequence to biological processes and function.”

Simple Two Nodes Pattern Chang et al., Multistable and multistep dynamics in neutrophil differentiation, BMC Cell Biology 2006, 7:11 Bistable dynamics in a two-gene system with cross-regulation. A. Gene regulatory circuit diagram. Blunt arrows indicate mutual inhibition of genes X and Y. Dashed arrows indicate a basal synthesis (affected by the inhibition) and an independent first-order degradation of the factors. B. Two-dimensional XY phase plane representing the typical dynamics of the circuit. Every point (X, Y) represents a momentary state defined by the values of the pair X, Y. Red arrows are gradient vectors indicating the direction and extent that the system will move to within a unit time at each of the (X, Y) positions. Collectively, the vector field gives rise to a "potential landscape", visualized by the colored contour lines (numerical approximation). In this "epigenetic landscape", the stable states (attractors) are in the lowest points in the valleys: a (X>>Y) and b (Y>>X) (gray dots). C. Schematic representation of the epigenetic landscape as a section through a and b in which every red dot represents a cell. Experimentally, this bistability is manifested as a bimodal distribution in flow cytometry histograms in which the stable states a and b appear as peaks at the respective level of marker expression (e.g., Y).
