FPtool a software tool to obtain in silico genotype-phenotype signatures and fingerprints based on massive model simulations

Fptool is an intuitive tool that provides to the user a preliminary fingerprint of the behaviour simulated by a mathematical model of a biochemical network when comparing two biological scenarios defined by the user. Here we present the tool and we applied to an already published mathematical model of lung legionella infection. The fingerprint obtained correlates with the results obtained in the original article. This tool is optimal for the users that would like to obtain a fast and preliminary view of the qualitative behaviour of a mathematical model before deciding for more elaborate analyses.
