    Discovering modulators of gene expression
    (Oxford University Press, 2010-09-01) Babur, Özgün; Demir, Emek; Gönen, M.; Sander, C.; Doğrusöz, Uğur
    Proteins that modulate the activity of transcription factors, often called modulators, play a critical role in creating tissue- and context-specific gene expression responses to the signals cells receive. GEM (Gene Expression Modulation) is a probabilistic framework that predicts modulators, their affected targets and mode of action by combining gene expression profiles, protein-protein interactions and transcription factor-target relationships. Using GEM, we correctly predicted a significant number of androgen receptor modulators and observed that most modulators can both act as co-activators and co-repressors for different target genes. © The Author(s) 2010.
