Bioengineers think synthetic gene networks will have many applications

Published in Gene Therapy Weekly, January 9th, 2003

"A central focus of postgenomic research will be to understand how cellular phenomena arise from the connectivity of genes and proteins. This connectivity generates molecular network diagrams that resemble complex electrical circuits, and a systematic understanding will require the development of a mathematical framework for describing the circuitry," state University California, San Diego, bioengineers.

"From an engineering perspective, the natural path towards such a framework is the construction and analysis of the underlying submodules that constitute the network," continue J. Hasty and coworkers at UCSD, in a recent issue of the journal Nature.
