Asymmetry between Activators and Deactivators in Functional Protein Networks.

Abstract excerpt

Are "turn-on" and "turn-off" functions in protein-protein interaction networks exact opposites of each other? To answer this question, we implement a minimal model for the evolution of functional protein-interaction networks using a sequence-based mutational algorithm, and apply the model to study neutral drift in networks that yield oscillatory dynamics. We study the roles of activators and deactivators, two...
