X 摘要

The topological bases of essentiality in the yeast metabolic network from the perspective of double mutations are the subject of this study. A strong relationship between essentiality and the 'missing alternative' topological property is shown in terms of the presence of multiple genes synthesizing the same enzyme, supplementary enzymes participating in the same metabolic reaction, and availability of other pathways in the graph connecting the separated nodes after the knockouts. We demonstrate that the 'missing alternative' paradigm is sufficient to explain the generation of essentiality for double mutations in which each single deleted element is non-essential.

CiteULike organises scholarly (or academic) papers or literature and provides bibliographic (which means it makes bibliographies) for universities and higher education establishments. It helps undergraduates and postgraduates. People studying for PhDs or in postdoctoral (postdoc) positions. The service is similar in scope to EndNote or RefWorks or any other reference manager like BibTeX, but it is a social bookmarking service for scientists and humanities researchers.
