GTL User Facilities Facility IV: Analysis and Modeling of Cellular Systems Jim K. Fredrickson
2
Genomes to Life Facilities for 21 st Century Biology Facility IV Analysis and Modeling of Cellular Systems Measure & predict dynamic events within cells. Spatial & temporal variations in cell “state” – individual microbes to multi-cellular systems. Facility I Production and Characterization of Proteins Facility II Whole Proteome Analysis Facility IV Modeling and Analysis of Cellular Systems Facility III Characterization and Imaging of Molecular Machines
3
Molecular Machine Dynamics Reveal Function dynamic changes in cellular localization of the DivK protein reveal insights into the cell cycle of Caulobacter crescentus
4
Capabilities Required for Measuring Individual Cells Single microbe populations exhibit variation Can arise from noise in gene expression Microbial communities will be more complicated Elowitz et al. 16 AUGUST 2002
5
Genome sequence High- Throughput Cultivation Data Analysis Data Interpretation Data Archival Modeling Facility I Facility III Facility II New tools & infrastructure for unprecedented analyses of cell state Cell & multi-cell models Systems level understanding of microbes & communities Proteomics, Regulatory networks Reagents, probes Machines for dynamic analysis Cultures, communities Cultures Facility IV: Final Component of an Integrated Network for Systems Biology Spatial, Temporal Analyses (imaging) Small Molecule Analyses Controlled Experimental Systems Cultures, genes Single Cell Expression
6
Spatially Resolved NMR Microspectroscopy Spatially localized spectroscopy 3-D µ-MRI of water distribution in a 600-µm- diameter tumor spheroid Combined optical/ MR microscope Environmentally regulated sample chamber In situ analysis of environment, metabolites in living cells
7
Facility IV: Analysis and Modeling of Cellular Systems Enable the final ascent to a systems level understanding of microbes, communities & multi-cellular organisms Next generation biology facility to measure dynamic state of living cells – machines, metabolites, signaling… Couple experiment, analysis, and theory in a recursive fashion to reveal networks, function
