3Put this food web into cytoscape
An Ocean Food Web
Nodes organisms
Edges/arrows flow of energy
4A Food WebSalmon
Nodes organisms
Arrows represent flow of energy
5Cell Phone Network
Nodes people/phones
Here we track the flow of information analogous
to the flow of energy in a food web
Edges can call
6Gene Networks, etc
Nodes can represent genes, proteins, etc
Edges can represent interaction between stimuli
(such as presence of light or sugar) and a
receptor, promoter, etc
7Network Model helpful for large systems, lots
of information
Figure 3 Screening DNA-damage phenotypes against
a scaffold of molecular interactions. A large
molecular interaction network was integrated with
1615 yeast deletion phenotypes gathered
systematically in response to MMS exposure.
