Table 2 Classification of biological events in 5 prototypes in the semantic network.
From: Modeling of cell signaling pathways in macrophages by semantic networks
Semantic Agent – Event | Biological Example |
|---|---|
Translocation | A protein moves from cytosol to plasma membrane. |
Non-covalent Interaction | A ligand binds to a receptor. |
Covalent Interaction | An enzyme catalyzes a chemical reaction where substrates are converted to products. |
Allosteric Regulation | A ligand binding on site A of a protein causes a conformational change on site B of the protein. |
Cellular Response | Cell survival, cell death, phagosome formation, increase of intracellular glucose level. |
