By studying the network structure one can draw conclusions on the large scale organisation of the biochemical processes. We describe methods how one can extract hierarchies of subnetworks, how these can be interpreted and further deconstructed to find autonomous subnetworks. The large-scale organisation we find is characterised by a tightly connected core surrounded by increasingly loosely connected substrates.submitted to Proceedings of the third workshop on computation of biochemical pathways and genetic networksMolecular NetworksDisordered Systems and Neural Networkstext
