Biological Networks (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9781641163552)

Any system with sub-units linked into a whole is known as a network. A biological network is a network of biological systems. It provides a mathematical representation of the connections between ecological, evolutionary and physiological studies. The prominent networks in biology are metabolic networks, food webs and gene regulatory networks. Biochemical reactions connect the chemical compounds of a living cell and convert one compound into another. This biochemical network of reactions is known as metabolic network. All organisms are connected to each other through feeding interactions and form an intricate web which is known as food web. All cells have complex gene regulatory networks in which the gene activity is regulated by transcription factors. The topics included in this book on biological networks are of utmost significance and bound to provide incredible insights to readers. It strives to provide a fair idea about this discipline and to help develop a better understanding of the latest advances within this field. For all readers who are interested in biological networks, the case studies included in this book will serve as an excellent guide to develop a comprehensive understanding.
