GeneNetMiner: accurately mining gene regulatory networks from literature
نویسندگان
چکیده
Lots of gene regulatory relationships have been reported derived 'small-scale' studies. These relations are buried in literature which is rapidly growing. It is extremely time-consuming and cost-intensive to manually curate gene regulatory relationships by human-reading articles. Therefore, a tool for prioritizing these relations and assisting manual curation is useful for finding gene regulatory relationships which could be used for constructing gene regulatory networks. GeneNetMiner is standalone software which parses the sentences of iHOP (Information Hyperlinked over Protein) and captures regulatory relations. The regulatory relations are either gene-gene regulations or gene-biological processes (i.e., Gene A induces cancer metastasis) relations. Capturing of gene-biological process relations is a unique feature for the tools of this kind. These relations can be used to build up gene regulatory networks for specific biological processes, diseases, or phenotypes. Users are able to search genes and biological processes to find the regulatory relationships between them. Each regulatory relationship has been assigned a confidence score, which indicates the probability of the 'true' relation. Furthermore, it reports the sentence containing the queried terms, which allows users to manually checking whether the relation is true if they wish. GeneNetMiner is able to accurately capture the regulatory relationships between genes from literature. The

متن کاملH∞ Sampled-Data Controller Design for Stochastic Genetic Regulatory Networks
Artificially regulating gene expression is an important step in developing new treatment for system-level disease such as cancer. In this paper, we propose a method to regulate gene expression based on sampled-data measurements of gene products concentrations. Inherent noisy behaviour of Gene regulatory networks are modeled with stochastic nonlinear differential equation. To synthesize feed...
متن کاملEvaluating Two Approaches to Extracting Gene Regulatory Networks: Bayesian Networks and Association Rule Mining
Advances in microarray technologies have enabled simultaneous measurement of expression levels of thousands of genes, creating new opportunities and challenges for gene expression data analysis. Several recent studies have proposed to extract gene regulatory relations from microarray data with a wide range of techniques. However, because of the dimensionality problem in microarray data, most ex...
متن کاملTemporal representation for gene networks: towards a qualitative temporal data mining
Processing literature (i.e., text corpora) to capture gene regulation events is not easy and can be driven by the final data representation. We propose to build, manually, an example of temporal representation (whole gene networks for coat formation in Bacillus Subtilis). Our temporal representation is based on a generalised formal language theory (S-languages). We propose an algorithm to link ...
