TLDR
It is shown here how a careful understanding of a given biological pathway can refine an interactome approach, which permits the elucidation of additional design principles and of spatio-temporal dynamics behind pathways, and aids in experimental design and interpretation.
Abstract
The strength of network biology lies in its ability to derive cell biological information without a priori mechanistic or molecular knowledge. It is shown here how a careful understanding of a given biological pathway can refine an interactome approach. This permits the elucidation of additional design principles and of spatio-temporal dynamics behind pathways, and aids in experimental design and interpretation.

Mechanisms of Endocytosis

TL;DR: What is known about mammalian endocytic mechanisms is reviewed, with focus on the cellular proteins that control these events, and the functional relevance of distinctendocytic pathways is discussed.

Molecular mechanism and physiological functions of clathrin-mediated endocytosis

TL;DR: Clathrin-mediated endocytosis is the endocytic portal into cells through which cargo is packaged into vesicles with the aid of a clathrin coat and is fundamental to neurotransmission, signal transduction and the regulation of many plasma membrane activities and is thus essential to higher eukaryotic life.
Journal ArticleDOI

Mechanisms of clathrin-mediated endocytosis.

TL;DR: Studies in recent years have provided several important insights into how endocytic vesicles are built, starting from initiation, cargo loading and the mechanisms governing membrane bending to membrane scission and the release of the vesicle into the cytoplasm.

Network biology: understanding the cell's functional organization

TL;DR: This work states that rapid advances in network biology indicate that cellular networks are governed by universal laws and offer a new conceptual framework that could potentially revolutionize the view of biology and disease pathologies in the twenty-first century.
Journal ArticleDOI

Lethality and centrality in protein networks

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that the phenotypic consequence of a single gene deletion in the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae is affected to a large extent by the topological position of its protein product in the complex hierarchical web of molecular interactions.

From molecular to modular cell biology.

TL;DR: General principles that govern the structure and behaviour of modules may be discovered with help from synthetic sciences such as engineering and computer science, from stronger interactions between experiment and theory in cell biology, and from an appreciation of evolutionary constraints.

Specificity and Stability in Topology of Protein Networks

TL;DR: It is found that for both interaction and regulatory networks, links between highly connected proteins are systematically suppressed, whereas those between a highly connected and low-connected pairs of proteins are favored.
