Systems Biology. What Is It? v A branch of science that seeks to integrate different levels of information to understand how biological systems function. v L. Hood: “Systems biology defines and analyses the interrelationships of all of the elements in a functioning system in order to understand how the system works. ” v It is not (only) the number and properties of system elements but their relations!!
More on Systems Biology Essence of living systems is flow of mass, energy, and information in space and time. The flow occurs along specific networks § Flow of mass and energy (metabolic networks) § Flow of information involving DNA (transcriptional regulation networks) § Flow of information not involving DNA (signaling networks) The Goal of Systems Biology: To understand the flow of mass, energy, and information in living systems.
Networks and the Core Concepts of Systems Biology (i) Complexity emerges at all levels of the hierarchy of life (ii) System properties emerge from interactions of components (iii) The whole is more than the sum of the parts. (iv) Applied mathematics provides approaches to modeling biological systems.

What is a Network? Network is a mathematical structure composed of points connected by lines Network Theory <-> Graph Theory Network Graph Nodes Vertices (points) Links Edges (Lines) A network can be build for any functional system System vs. Parts = Networks vs. Nodes
The 7 bridges of Königsberg The question is whether it is possible to walk with a route that crosses each bridge exactly once.
The representation of Euler In 1736 Leonhard Euler formulated the problem in terms of abstracted the case of Königsberg: 1) by eliminating all features except the landmasses and the bridges connecting them; 2) by replacing each landmass with a dot (vertex) and each bridge with a line (edge). The shape of a graph may be distorted in any way without changing the graph itself, so long as the links between nodes are unchanged. It does not matter whether the links are straight or curved, or whether one node is to the left or right of another.
The solution depends on the node degree 3 3 5 In a continuous path crossing the edges exactly once, each visited node requires an edge for entering and a different edge for exiting (except for the start and the end nodes). 3 A path crossing once each edge is called Eulerian path. It possible IF AND ONLY IF there are exactly two or zero nodes of odd degree. Since the graph corresponding to Königsberg has four nodes of odd degree, it cannot have an Eulerian path.
The solution depends on the node degree End 3 2 6 5 1 4 Start If there are two nodes of odd degree, those must be the starting and ending points of an Eulerian path.
Hamiltonian paths Find a path visiting each node exactly one Conditions of existence for Hamiltonian paths are not simple
Hamiltonian paths
Graph nomenclature q Graphs can be simple or multigraphs, depending on whether the interaction between two neighboring nodes is unique or can be multiple, respectively. q A node can have or not self loops
Graph nomenclature q Networks can be undirected or directed, depending on whether the interaction between two neighboring nodes proceeds in both directions or in only one of them, respectively. 1 2 3 4 5 6 q The specificity of network nodes and links can be quantitatively characterized by weights 2. 5 7. 3 3. 3 12. 7 5. 4 8. 1 2. 5 Vertex-Weighted Edge-Weighted
Graph nomenclature A network can be connected (presented by a single component) or disconnected (presented by several disjoint components). connected disconnected Networks having no cycles are termed trees. The more cycles thenetwork has, the more complex it is. trees cyclic graphs
Graph nomenclature Paths Stars Cycles Complete Graphs
Large graphs = Networks
Statistical features of networks • Vertex degree distribution (the degree of a vertex is the number of vertices connected with it via an edge)
Statistical features of networks • Clustering coefficient: the average proportion of neighbours of a vertex that are themselves neighbours Node 4 Neighbours (N) 2 Connections among the Neighbours Clustering for the node = 2/6 Clustering coefficient: Average over all the nodes 6 possible connections among the Neighbours (Nx(N-1)/2)
Statistical features of networks • Clustering coefficient: the average proportion of neighbours of a vertex that are themselves neighbours C=0 C=0 C=1

Adding randomness in a regular network Random changes in edges OR Addition of random links
Adding randomness in a regular network (rewiring) Networks with high clustering (like regular ones) and low path length (like random ones) can be obtained: SMALL WORLD NETWORKS (Strogatz and Watts, 1999)
Small World Networks A small amount of random shortcuts can decrease the path length, still maintaining a high clustering: this model “explains” the 6 -degrees of separations in human friendship network
What about the degree distribution in real networks? Both random and small world models predict an approximate Poisson distribution: most of the values are near the mean; Exponential decay when k gets higher: P(k) ≈ e-k, for large k.
What about the degree distribution in real networks? In 1999, modelling the WWW (pages: nodes; link: edges), Barabasi and Albert discover a slower than exponential decay: P(k) ≈ k-a with 2 < a < 3, for large k
Scale-free networks Networks that are characterized by a power-law degree distribution are highly non-uniform: most of the nodes have only a few links. A few nodes with a very large number of links, which are often called hubs, hold these nodes together. Networks with a power degree distribution are called scale-free hubs It is the same distribution of wealth following Pareto’s 20 -80 law: Few people (20%) possess most of the wealth (80%), most of the people (80%) possess the rest (20%)
Hubs Attacks to hubs can rapidly destroy the network
Three non biological scale-free networks Note the log-log scale LINEAR PLOT Albert and Barabasi, Science 1999
How can a scale-free network emerge? Network growth models: start with one vertex.
How can a scale-free network emerge? Network growth models: new vertex attaches to existing vertices by preferential attachment: vertex tends choose vertex according to vertex degree In economy this is called Matthew’s effect: The rich get richer This explain the Pareto’s distribution of wealth
How can a scale-free network emerge? Network growth models: hubs emerge (in the WWW: new pages tend to link to existing, well linked pages)
Metabolic pathways are scale-free Hubs are pyruvate, coenzyme A….
Protein interaction networks are scale-free Degree is in some measure related to phenotypic effect upon gene knock-out Red : lethal Green: non lethal Yellow: Unknown
Caveat: different experiments give different results Titz et al, Exp Review Proteomics, 2004
How can a scale-free network emerge? Gene duplication (and differentiation): duplicated genes give origin to a protein that interacts with the same proteins as the original protein (and then specializes its functions)
Caveat on the use of the scale-free theory The same noisy data can be fitted in different ways A sub-net of a non-free-scale network can have a scale-free behaviour Finding a scale-free behaviour do NOT imply the growth with preferential attachment mechanism Keller, Bio. Essays 2006
Hierarchical networks Standard free scale models have low clustering: a modular hierarchical model accounts for high clustering, low average path and scale-freeness
Modules Sub-graphs more represented than expected 209 bi-fan motifs found in the E. coli regulatory network
Summary v Many complex networks in nature and technology have common features. v They differ considerably from random networks of the same size v By studying network structure and dynamics, and by using comparative network analysis, one can get answers of important biological questions.
Fundamental Biological Questions to Answer (i) Which interactions and groups of interactions are likely to have equivalent functions across species? (ii) Based on these similarities, can we predict new functional information about proteins and interactions that are poorly characterized? (iii) What do these relationships tell us about the evolution of proteins, networks and whole species? (iv) How to reduce the noise in biological data: Which interactions represent true binding events? False-positive interaction is unlikely to be reproduced across the interaction maps of multiple species.
