1 Using systems biology to learn how halo respond to their environment

2 bR converts light energy into chemical energy for making ATP Halobacterium cell Note: other proteins are required for this process, but we will simplify and focus on bR Bacteriorhodopsin (bR) LIGHT ATP

3 Bacteriorhodopsin (bR) Cell membRane Bacteriorhodopsin (bR) is made from a protein called bop and the molecule retinal Bop protein Bop + retinal = bacteriorhodopsin (bR) Retinal

4 Halobacterium cell LIGHT PRESENT LIGHT ABSENT (DARK) Halobacterium cell LIGHT When there is more light, halo respond by making more bR LIGHT When there is less light, halo make less bR Halo change the expression of bR in response to the amount of light in their environment

5 LightbR + The amount of bR increases when there is more light. Note that the size of nodes in this diagram relates to the amount of light and bR, not the actual size. In other words, the size of bR does not change; a larger node for bR indicates a larger amount of bR. Halo change the expression of bR in response to the amount of light in their environment

6 OUR QUESTION: How do Halobacterium cells control the amount of bR expressed in response to light? What is the gene and protein network that regulates the expression of bR?

44 Why is it so complicated? Why does the cell use this network of genes, enzymes, other proteins, and metabolites to make bR? Why does the cell go through the trouble of regulating the network for bR?

45 What could we do to test our network model? How could we validate our network? What other types of experiments could we do? What other types of information could we use? Would we have been able to define this network without multiple data types? Why or why not?
