| Abstract | Signaling networks play a key role in almost all cellular functions and cell's response to extracellular stimuli. Constructing the topology of interactions that make up signaling networks is of utmost importance to understand how these networks function. Knockdown assays, such as RNA interference (RNAi) technology, provides us hints about the roles of individual genes involved in these networks. However, determining the correct topology of interactions between these genes remains to be challenging. Existing computational approaches are either not scalable to large networks, or they have low accuracies. In this study, we consider that problem of constructing signaling network topology from single gene knockdown experiments. We formulate this mathematically as a network editing problem and develop an efficient algorithm to solve this problem. The key contribution in this paper is that our formulation can integrate the knowledge available in the form of the topologies of an arbitrary number of reference networks. Our experiments on synthetic, semi-synthetic and real datasets demonstrate that the proposed method greatly outperforms the state of the art methods, which are limited to a single reference network, in terms of accuracy with negligible increase in computational cost. Furthermore, our experiments suggest that the accuracy of our method remains high even when evolutionarily distant reference networks are used. Application of our method to the Apoptosis and Wnt signaling pathways recovers a large number of known protein-protein interactions. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
