Ligand ScreensAfCS Goal: Quantitative understanding of the
signaling network in a mammalian cell
1. Independent of cell type2. Focused on pathway structure and interactions3. Complex system: numerically, spatially and organizationally 4. Includes processes in multiple time domains5. Includes both mass-action and stochastic processes
The ligand screen is our first real experiment
Ligand ScreensAfCS Goal: Quantitative understanding of the
signaling network in a mammalian cell
1. Independent of cell type2. Focused on pathway interactions3. Complex system: numerically, spatially and organizationally 4. Includes processes in multiple time domains5. Includes both mass-action and stochastic processes6. Not amenable to simply exhaustive data gathering7. Requires black box (top down) models
to direct choice of cellular signaling probes 8. Requires black box (behavioral) data for experimental design and,
later, to evaluate bottom-up models
Experiments will depend on general understanding of the nature and exent of the complexity of our cells
The ligand screen is our first real experiment
Ligand ScreensWhat behaviors lie within the black box?
What are its rules?
Challenge: acquire, organize and interpret a data set that will allow us to
choose the cellular signaling probes that willbe most informative
assemble and evaluate input/output data constrain models of how the signaling
pathways work in cells according to overall cellular behaviors
The ligand screen is our first real experiment
single-ligand screen is...
Single Ligand Screen
How many inputs are there?

• established strategies for the single ligand screen.• set up some of the wide array of necessary assays.• executed a single-ligand screen in B cells and WEHI.• begun to analyze single-ligand data.
provocative enough that it won’t be “done” soon• established strategies for the double-ligand screen.
non-trivial and still under developmenttime and concentration domains different kinds of interactionschoice of measured outputschoices influenced by types of assays
• run partial double-ligand screen on B cells.
How do we best and most efficiently execute and analyze the single- and double-ligand screen on a new cell type?
So far, we have...
Title
Single and Double Ligand Screens
What’s next?
•Evaluate applicability of microarrays to double-ligand screen
Lots of data; not quite quantitative; expensive
Replace with a few well-chosen RT-PCR’s?
•Bring multiplex lipid analysis on-line
Extend to inositol lipids
•Adopt standards for unified data normalization
•Develop and adopt formulas to choose ligand concentrations
•Automate data normalization and integration
•Add new assays as feasible
Criteria for New AfCS Assays
• Highly multiplexed or complex (integrative) readouts• Quantitative data• Large dynamic range• Reproducible• High throughput • Responsive to many inputs ( or )• Continuous time-base readout 15 min• Assorted depths into pathways• Single cell measurements, but lots of them• Data obtainable in < 12 months; established assays
