Interpreting and predicting whole-cell physiology brought about by a highly interconnected network of biochemical components. Quantitative methodology is needed.

Basic data is the genome datasets of various species.

Uses bioinformatic tools and computers.

Output: Open Reading Frames (ORF) and their approximate chromosomal location, function and associated regulatory sequences. Gene expression and regulation patterns of cells and tissues on genome scale. Protein expression, protein-protein interactions, metabolite concentrations.

ETC! Reading into this…
