CellDesigner Tutorial




You will find here a basic introduction to the different features of CellDesigner. As much as we could, we linked to the existing resources provided by the CellDesigner project. Take the time to explore this part of the tutorial before starting, and it should also be a good source of information to come back to later.

Cell Designer Features

  • Biochemical, Gene Regulatory Networks Modeling with GUI
  • Visual Representation of Biochemical Semantics
  • SBML Compliant
  • Direct integration with SBML ODE Solver
  • Free download (Win32, OSX, Linux)

Our Objectives

  • Getting familiar with a new modelling tool (standard annotation and kinetic simulation).
  • Using the software to explore the behaviour of simple genetic network motifs.
  • Being able to build and simulate new, and more complex, genetic networks (such as the ones you will build later in the course).
  • Developing a rational methodology to investigate kinetic models.
