RT info:eu-repo/semantics/article T1 Determination of the temporal order among the components of an oscillatory system A1 Barragán, Sandra A1 Rueda Sabater, María Cristina A1 Fernández Temprano, Miguel Alejandro A1 Peddada, Shyamal AB Oscillatory systems in biology are tightly regulated process where the individual components(e.g. genes) express in an orderly manner by virtue of their functions. The temporalorder among the components of an oscillatory system may potentially be disrupted for variousreasons (e.g. environmental factors). As a result some components of the system maygo out of order or even cease to participate in the oscillatory process. In this article, wedevelop a novel framework to evaluate whether the temporal order is unchanged in differentpopulations (or experimental conditions). We also develop methodology to estimate theorder among the components with a suitable notion of “confidence.” Using publicly availabledata on S. pombe, S. cerevisiae and Homo sapiens we discover that the temporal orderamong the genes cdc18; mik1; hhf1; hta2; fkh2 and klp5 is evolutionarily conserved fromyeast to humans.
