Thesis Title: Modelling HIV-1 interactions with the host system.
Supervisors: Prof David Robertson and Dr Jean-Marc Schwartz
Modelled dynamic HIV-1 infection of the T cell activation-signalling pathway. I built a detailed model by obtaining known direct interactions between HIV-human and human-human proteins. I built a dynamic model based on logical Boolean formalism. Our model reproduced known global properties by identifying human proteins important to HIV-1 infection in the T cell pathway.
Developed a method to classify host genes into functional groups based on their interaction with HIV-1.
Groups showed coherence in biological function and promise of being usable for functional downsizing of HIV-1 interaction model. It also showed HIV-1 proteins exhibit a power
Used co-expression data and gene expression data of infected and uninfected hosts for validation of HIV-1 based groups. Data was obtained from Array express and CO-expression database.
