    PySB[edit]

    PySB..[1] is a Python-based open-source simulator for cellular systems developed by Carlos Lopez. The primary capability of pySB than makes it stand out from other similar simulators is that it supports rule-based modeling[2]. The software runs on all major platforms, Windows, Mac OS, and Linux. PySB is also discussed at Multi-state modeling of biomolecules.

    Capabilities[3][edit]

    • Can be used to describe rule-based models of complex biochemical pathways, particularly signaling pathways.
    • Can be used to create model libraries based on macros to reuse.
    • Uses standard python sci-py numerical libraries for carrying out simulations.

    Applications of pySB[edit]

    pySB has been used in a variety of research projects. The following lists a small number of those studies (out of a total of 230 mentions in the scientific literature (as of Oct 2022).

    • Studies on substrate selectivity in cyclooxygenase-2[4]
    • Information discrimination in T-cell signaling[5]
    • Inverted control of eukaryotic gene expression[7]
    • Construction of Cellular Responses and Global Drug Mechanisms of Action[8]

    These have all been impactful studies (Google Scholar) and indicate that pySB is being used in a variety of important research areas.

    Notability[edit]

    There are a number of distinguishing features of pySB that make it standout from other similar cellular modeling platforms:

    • PySB is the only python-based simulation package for systems biology that supports rule-based modeling.
    • PySB can translate BioNetGen[9] and Kappa[10] rules into its own rule-based language.
    • PySB also allows users to divide models into modules and to call libraries of reusable elements (macros) that encode standard biochemical actions.

    A number of reviews and commentaries have been written that discuss pySB:

    • Slater[11]. describes in detail the pros and cons of a variety of rule-based languages and platforms, including pySB
    • Mitra and Hlaveck[12] briefly discuss the importance of pySB, where they state: "Another package of note is PySB which has support for BNGL"
    • Chicklet et al[13], discuss at length a variety of rule-based modeling platforms but particularly pySB.

    SBML Support[edit]

    pySB is able to export SBML in flattened form[14]. That is, the rule-based model is converted into explicit reactions. This means that the rule-based formalism is not preserved.

    For import, pySB converts the SBML into BioNetGen first using BioNetGen application. pySB then imports the BioNetGen format using the pySB BioNetGen importer. This means import is limited by the import capabilities of BioNetGen[15]
