摘要：The study of metabolic pathways has been the key areas of interest for researchers in bioinformatics. The data in the form of pathways provides an organizational and simple form of representing data. Such representation is easy to understand and implement. One of the most basic elements of these pathways is switches. Switches may used to connect two complex pathways or may be used in one big pathway itself to regulate some part of a complex pathway. Many cellular components are found to be performing as switches regulating various activities of the cell. It is of foremost importance to identify such switches in a network to study its effect on the regulation and the function of the cell.
