RESUMO
Na ltima dcada, a pesquisa na rea biolgica ultrapassou a capacidade humana
de analisar o imenso volume de dados acumulados, gerados a partir do desenvolvimento
de tecnologias em larga escala, e das abordagens micas. Assim, o uso de programas
computacionais para o armazenamento, busca, anlise e integrao dos dados de
fundamental importncia. A Biologia de Sistemas uma rea multidisciplinar que visa
integrar os dados relativos a genes e protenas individuais e investigar o comportamento
e relaes entre os diversos elementos de um sistema biolgico para explicar o seu
funcionamento. Neste contexto, o cncer, uma patologia altamente heterognea,
envolvendo a desregulao de mltiplas vias interconectadas que encontram-se
alteradas de uma forma complexa por diversas mutaes gnicas em conjunto com o
contexto ambiental, depende de uma caracterizao quantitativa e de anlises
computacionais para a compreenso preditiva ou mecanicista da patologia. Este projeto
tem como foco, portanto, o desenvolvimento de novos algoritmos para a modelagem de
redes de interao, de forma otimizada e automatizada, dentro de uma perspectiva de
Biologia de Sistemas baseada em redes complexas no cncer. Sero desenvolvidos
modelos dinmicos in silico, com foco em abordagens quantitativas, para a anlise das
redes de interao, em particular o interactoma das Neks (NIMA-related kinases) e o
interactoma de carcinoma e melanoma, visando a identificao de novos alvos
teraputicos e possveis inibidores (drogas) com potencial para utilizao em novas
estratgias teraputicas anti-cncer.

pode levar fragmentao de esforos em modelagem, uma vez que ela dificulta a
integrao de modelos provenientes de diferentes fontes. Portanto, simulaes no nvel
de uma clula inteira ou multi-celular se beneficiariam do desenvolvimento de uma
plataforma para modelagem, anlise e simulao baseada na unificao destes
formalismos, capazes de integrar os diferentes componentes e suas relaes, englobando
todos os tipos de redes biolgicas. Nesse contexto, o desenvolvimento de novos
algoritmos hbridos, combinando os mtodos quantitativos mais eficientes para cada
tipo de rede, proporcionaria uma modelagem automatizada das redes de interao em
um pipeline nico, sendo o objetivo central deste projeto.
