  • Using logic-based in silico perturbation experiments of a core regulatory network, we identified that simultaneous perturbation of Protein kinase B (AKT1) and oncoprotein murine double minute 2 (MDM2) drastically reduces EMT in melanoma. (bvsalud.org)
  • However, if we are to accurately model large gene networks in complex organisms, including fly, worm, mouse, and human, automated procedures will be essential for analyzing the network, choosing the best new experiments to test the model, conducting the experiments, and integrating the resulting data.

  • Using a combination of miRNA hairpin predictions and co-mapping with miRBase entries, we identified a highly conserved cluster of miRNA genes on the X chromosome in the tammar and a total of 94 other predicted miRNA producing genes. (biomedcentral.com)
  • The design of cis-regulatory modules is such that transcription factors and epigenetic modifications serve as inputs, and the output of the module is the command given to the transcription machinery, which in turn determines the rate of gene transcription or whether it is turned on or off.

  • One popular approach to disease-gene association testing is a transcriptome-wide association study (TWAS). (ucsd.edu)
  • Plants show stress-specific regulation of transcription that affects their transcriptome under stress conditions. (intechopen.com)
