From Gene Regulation to Gene Function: Regulatory Networks in Bacillus Subtilis
Bacillus subtilis is a sporulating Gram-positive bacterium that lives primarily in the soil and associated water sources. The publication of the B. subtilis genome sequence and subsequent systematic functional analysis and gene regulation programmes, together with an extensive understanding of its biochemistry and physiology, makes this micro-organism a prime candidate in which to model regulat...
متن کاملFrom gene networks to gene function.
We propose a novel method to identify functionally related genes based on comparisons of neighborhoods in gene networks. This method does not rely on gene sequence or protein structure homologies, and it can be applied to any organism and a wide variety of experimental data sets. The character of the predicted gene relationships depends on the underlying networks;they concern biological process...
متن کاملInferring Gene Regulatory Networks from Time-Ordered Gene Expression Data of Bacillus Subtilis Using Differential Equations
We describe a new method to infer a gene regulatory network, in terms of a linear system of differential equations, from time course gene expression data. As biologically the gene regulatory network is known to be sparse, we expect most coefficients in such a linear system of differential equations to be zero. In previously proposed methods, the number of nonzero coefficients in the system was ...
متن کاملGene Regulatory Networks from Gene Ontology
Gene Ontology (GO) provides a controlled vocabulary and hierarchy of terms to facilitate the annotation of gene functions and molecular attributes. Given a set of genes, a Gene Ontology Network (GON) can be constructed from the corresponding GO annotations and semantic relations among GO terms. Transitive rules can be applied to GO semantic relations to infer transitive regulations among genes....
متن کاملMotifs emerge from function in model gene regulatory networks.
Gene regulatory networks allow the control of gene expression patterns in living cells. The study of network topology has revealed that certain subgraphs of interactions or "motifs" appear at anomalously high frequencies. We ask here whether this phenomenon may emerge because of the functions carried out by these networks. Given a framework for describing regulatory interactions and dynamics, w...
