Abstract

Computational methods for describing, understanding, and manipulating biological pathways continue to be a heavily researched area [1]-[3]. Many researchers use constructs based in electrical circuit design in the modeling and analysis of biological systems [4], [5], but few draw on and exploit parallels between electrical circuits and biological circuits for simulation purposes. We develop a biological simulation framework using X yce™, a large-scale electrical circuit simulator, that is capable of simulating the complete metabolic system of Escherichia coli K-12. Using our framework we are able to model large-scale hybrid systems as demonstrated in successful simulation of E.coli central metabolism, a system that includes metabolic and corresponding genetic regulatory networks.
