Evidence of Scale-Free Topology and Dynamics in Gene Regulatory Networks
arXiv:cond-mat/0301041
Abstract
Temporal gene expression data (Wen, et. al.) was analyzed using the recently introduced inverse modeling technique of Embedded Complex Logistic Maps (ECLM). Preliminary results indicate scale-free structure in the gene regulatory network topology as well as in the network's energy dissipation characteristics. General agreement was found with other recent studies involving a dynamical model and analyses of other biochemical networks exhibiting scale-free topology. The highlights of our study are briefly outlined.
