Abstract: Systems biology approaches to understanding eukaryotic cell function have enabled painstaking reconstruction of intracellular networks that map input to response. However, quantitative modeling of these networks continues to remain a challenge owing to both unavailability of myriad parameters and concentrations of species in the network. Using a well-studied example, I will discuss the challenges in quantitative modeling of networks and discuss its implications for experimental biology. I will then discuss new strategies for coarse-grained quantitative modeling. Coarse-grained biochemical models, called reduced-order models (ROM), consisting of essential biochemical mechanisms are more useful for computational analysis and for studying important features of a biochemical network. I will discuss applications of ROM for a simple and a very complex biochemical network and illustrate how this modeling can lead to systems level hypothesis generation and understanding of cellular biology.
