Our pipeline generates novel molecular interaction networks by combining pathway data from various public databases starting from the user\u2019s query. The pipeline then identifies a set of nodes that is enough to control a given, user-defined set of <i>disease-specific essential proteins<\/i> in the network, i.e., it is able to induce a change in their configuration from any initial state to any final state.\u00a0The pipeline can be used by researchers for controlling and better understanding of molecular interaction networks through combinatorial multi-drug therapies, for more efficient therapeutic approaches and personalised medicine.<\/p>\n<p>The article is available <a href=\"https:\/\/bmcbioinformatics.biomedcentral.com\/articles\/10.1186\/s12859-018-2177-3\">here<\/a>.<\/p>\n<div id=\"page-160\" class=\"post child-page page\">\n<div class=\"entry\">\n<div class=\"entry-content clearfix\">\n<h5 class=\"post-title\"><a title=\"Permalink to BioNetGen\" href=\"https:\/\/combio.org\/portfolio\/bionetgen\/\" rel=\"bookmark\">BioNetGen<\/a><\/h5>\n<p>Bionetgen Implementation of the Heat Shock Response Bogdan Iancu has implemented the Bionetgen source code of the Heat Shock Response.
