Abstract

This chapter describes how mathematical models can be used to investigate the possible range of behaviors for mutant forms of a protein. A mathematical model of the RAS signaling network that has previously been developed and applied to specific RAS mutants will be adapted for the process of computational random mutagenesis. By using this model to computationally investigate the range of RAS signaling outputs that would be anticipated over a wide range of the relevant parameter space, one can gain intuition about the types of behaviors that would be demonstrated by biological RAS mutants.
