Reverse engineering of biological pathways involves an iterative process between
experiments, data processing, and theoretical analysis. Despite concurrent
advances in quality and quantity of data as well as computing resources and
algorithms, difficulties in deciphering direct and indirect network connections
are prevalent. Here, we adopt the notions of abstraction, emulation,
benchmarking, and validation in the context of discovering features specific to
this family of connectivities. After subjecting benchmark synthetic circuits to
perturbations, we inferred the network connections using a combination of
nonparametric single-cell data resampling and modular response analysis.
Intriguingly, we discovered that recovered weights of specific network edges
undergo divergent shifts under differential perturbations, and that the
particular behavior is markedly different between topologies. Our results point
to a conceptual advance for reverse engineering beyond weight inference.
Investigating topological changes under differential perturbations may address
the longstanding problem of discriminating direct and indirect connectivities in
biological networks.
