With the advent of high-throughput wet lab technologies the amount of protein interaction data available publicly has increased substantially, in turn spurring a plethora of computational methods for in silico knowledge discovery from this data. In this paper, we focus on parameterized methods for modeling and solving complex computational problems encountered in such knowledge discovery from protein data. Specifically, we concentrate on three relevant problems today in proteomics, namely detection of lethal proteins, functional modules and alignments from protein interaction networks. We propose novel graph theoretic models for these problems and devise practical parameterized algorithms. At a broader level, we demonstrate how these methods can be viable alternatives for the several heurestic, randomized, approximation and sub-optimal methods by arriving at parameterized yet optimal solutions for these problems. We substantiate these theoretical results by experimenting on real protein interaction data of S. cerevisiae (budding yeast) and verifying the results using gene ontology.

ANIMO (Analysis of Networks with Interactive MOdeling) is a software for modeling biological networks, such as e.g. signaling, metabolic or gene networks. An ANIMO model is essentially the sum of a network topology and a number of interaction paramet ers. The topology describes the interactions between biological entities in form of a graph, while the parameters determine the speed of occurrence of such interactions. When a mismatch is observed between the behavior of an ANIMO model and experimental data, we want to update the model so that it explains the new data. In general, the topology of a model can be expanded with new (known or hypothetical) nodes, and enables it to match experimental data. However, the unrestrained addition of new parts to a model causes two problems: models can become too complex too fast, to the point of being intractable, and too many parts marked as hypothetical or not known make a model unrealistic. Even if changing the topology is normally the easier task, these problems push us to try a better parameter fit as a first step, and resort to modifying the model topology only as a last resource. In this paper we show the support added in ANIMO to ease the task of expanding the knowledge on biological networks, concentrating in particular on the parameter settings.
The stochastic simulation of large-scale biochemical reaction networks is of great importance for systems biology since it enables the study of inherently stochastic biological mechanisms at the whole cell scale. Stochastic Simulation Algorithms (SSA ) allow us to simulate the dynamic behavior of complex kinetic models, but their high computational cost makes them very slow for many realistic size problems. We present a pilot service, named WebStoch, developed in the context of our StochSoCs research project, allowing life scientists with no high-performance computing expertise to perform over the internet stochastic simulations of large-scale biological network models described in the SBML standard format. Biomodels submitted to the service are parsed automatically and then placed for parallel execution on distributed worker nodes. The workers are implemented using multi-core and many-core processors, or FPGA accelerators that can handle the simulation of thousands of stochastic repetitions of complex biomodels, with possibly thousands of reactions and interacting species. Using benchmark LCSE biomodels, whose workload can be scaled on demand, we demonstrate linear speedup and more than two orders of magnitude higher throughput than existing serial simulators.
Molecular networks act as the backbone of cellular activities, providing an {excellent} opportunity to understand the developmental changes in an organism. While network data usually constitute only stationary network graphs, constructing multilayer PPI network may provide clues to the particular developmental role at each {stage of life} and may unravel the importance of these developmental changes. The developmental biology model of {Caenorhabditis elegans} {analyzed} here provides a ripe platform to understand the patterns of evolution during life stages of an organism. In the present study, the widely studied network properties exhibit overall similar statistics for all the PPI layers. Further, the analysis of the degree-degree correlation and spectral properties not only reveals crucial differences in each PPI layer but also indicates the presence of the varying complexity among them. The PPI layer of Nematode life stage exhibits various network properties different to rest of the PPI layers, indicating the specific role of cellular diversity and developmental transitions at this stage. The framework presented here provides a direction to explore and understand developmental changes occurring in different life stages of an organism.
An $h$-queue layout of a graph $G$ consists of a linear order of its vertices and a partition of its edges into $h$ queues, such that no two independent edges of the same queue nest. The minimum $h$ such that $G$ admits an $h$-queue layout is the que ue number of $G$. We present two fixed-parameter tractable algorithms that exploit structural properties of graphs to compute optimal queue layouts. As our first result, we show that deciding whether a graph $G$ has queue number $1$ and computing a corresponding layout is fixed-parameter tractable when parameterized by the treedepth of $G$. Our second result then uses a more restrictive parameter, the vertex cover number, to solve the problem for arbitrary $h$.

Essential protein plays a crucial role in the process of cell life. The identification of essential proteins can not only promote the development of drug target technology, but also contribute to the mechanism of biological evolution. There are plent y of scholars who pay attention to discovering essential proteins according to the topological structure of protein network and biological information. The accuracy of protein recognition still demands to be improved. In this paper, we propose a method which integrate the clustering coefficient in protein complexes and topological properties to determine the essentiality of proteins. First, we give the definition of In-clustering coefficient (IC) to describe the properties of protein complexes. Then we propose a new method, complex edge and node clustering coefficient (CENC) to identify essential proteins. Different Protein-Protein Interaction (PPI) networks of Saccharomyces cerevisiae, MIPS and DIP are used as experimental materials. Through some experiments of logistic regression model, the results show that the method of CENC can promote the ability of recognizing essential proteins, by comparing with the existing methods DC, BC, EC, SC, LAC, NC and the recent method UC.
