Abstract:
Gene and protein interaction networks have evolved to precisely specify cell fates and functions. Here, we analyse whether the architecture of these networks affects evolvability. We find evidence to suggest that in yeast these networks are mainly acyclic, and that evolutionary changes in these parts do not affect their global dynamic properties. In contrast, feedback loops strongly influence dynamic behaviour and are often evolutionarily conserved. Feedback loops are often found to reside in a clustered manner by means of coupling and nesting with each other in the molecular interaction netwo

Abstract:
Phenotypic traits are determined by networks of interactions between genes, proteins and enzymes. Structural positions of regulatory mechanisms in the network can determine variability in its elements. Here we examine the topological properties of controls that regulate element expression in a network. If distinct regulatory controls are located at the beginning and end of the same pathway, then we would expect phenotypic differences to be due to differences in the pathway length of their respective networks. Alternatively, if each pathway has its own control mechanism, then phenotypic differe

Abstract:
Background Recurrence and predictability of evolution are thought to reflect the correspondence between genomic and phenotypic dimensions of organisms, and the connectivity in deterministic networks within these dimensions. Direct examination of the correspondence between opportunities for diversification imbedded in such networks and realized diversity is illuminating, but is empirically challenging because both the deterministic networks and phenotypic diversity are modified in the course of evolution. Here we overcome this problem by directly comparing the structure of a “global” carotenoi

A complex network of genes and proteins governs the robust progression through cell cycles in the presence of inevitable noise. Stochastic modeling is viewed as a key paradigm to study the effects of intrinsic and extrinsic noise on the dynamics of biochemical networks. A detailed quantitative description of such complex and multiscale networks via stochastic modeling poses several challenges. First, stochastic models generally require extensive computations, particularly when applied to large networks. Second, the accuracy of stochastic models is highly dependent on the quality of the paramet

Whilst well-known methods, such as the Gillespie Algorithm, can be implemented to investigate a given model, the computational demands of traditional simulation techniques remain a significant barrier to modern research.

Abstract:
Le but de mes travaux de recherche est de rendre, autant que possible, algorithmique l'étude des modèles composés par des équations différentielles paramétriques. Je me concentre aux algorithmes basés sur les symétries de Lie étendues pour les modèles de taille moyenne (environ vingt variables). Je présente deux méthodes de simplification exacte : la réduction du nombre des variables d'un modèle et sa reparamétrisation pour distinguer le rôle de ses paramètres. Les systèmes simplifiés sont équivalents aux systèmes originaux par des relations implicites ou explicites (suivant la méthode choisie
