High-resolution analysis of condition-specific regulatory modules in Saccharomyces cerevisiae

Genome Biol. 2008 Jan 3;9(1):R2. doi: 10.1186/gb-2008-9-1-r2.

Abstract

We present an approach for identifying condition-specific regulatory modules by using separate units of gene expression profiles along with ChIP-chip and motif data from Saccharomyces cerevisiae. By investigating the unique and common features of the obtained condition-specific modules, we detected several important properties of transcriptional network reorganization. Our approach reveals the functionally distinct coregulated submodules embedded in a coexpressed gene module and provides an effective method for identifying various condition-specific regulatory events at high resolution.
