What problem does it solve?

Automate inference of gene regulatory networks (GRNs) and regulon activity from gene expression data to reveal regulatory programs and their dynamics.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Inference of GRNs from expression matrices with optional TF priors
  • Regulon scoring and perturbation-aware comparison
  • Visualization of networks and regulator-centric views
  • Use Case: interpret transcriptional programs in response to treatments or perturbations

Quick Start

Provide an expression matrix (and optional TF priors or chromatin features) to generate inferred networks and regulon activity visualizations.

FAQPage Schema
How do I infer gene regulatory networks from expression data?

To infer gene regulatory networks from expression data, provide an expression matrix and optional transcription factor priors or chromatin features to generate inferred networks, regulon activity tables, and network visualizations.

What is regulon activity scoring in regulatory genomics analyses?

Regulon activity scoring in regulatory genomics analyses quantifies the collective expression of target genes controlled by a transcription factor, allowing you to interpret transcriptional programs and their dynamics in response to treatments or perturbations.

Can I use chromatin features and TF priors to improve gene regulatory network inference?

Yes, you can use optional chromatin features and transcription factor priors alongside your expression matrix to improve gene regulatory network inference and generate more accurate regulon activity tables and visualizations.

How do I visualize transcription factor networks for perturbation-aware comparisons?

To visualize transcription factor networks for perturbation-aware comparisons, input your expression matrix to generate regulator-centric views and network visualizations that reveal regulatory programs and their dynamics across different conditions.

What input data is required to generate gene regulatory networks and regulon activity tables?

Generating gene regulatory networks and regulon activity tables requires an expression matrix as the primary input, while optional transcription factor priors and chromatin features can be provided to refine the inferred networks and visualizations.
