Background: Gene expression microarray and other multiplex data hold promise for addressing the challenges of cellular complexity, refined diagnoses and the discovery of well-targeted treatments. A new approach to the construction and quantification of transcriptional regulatory networks (TRNs) is presented that integrates gene expression microarray data and cell modeling through information theory. Given a partial TRN and time series data, a probability density is constructed that is a functional of the time course of transcription factor (TF) thermodynamic activities at the site of gene control, and is a function of mRNA degradation and transcription rate coefficients, and equilibrium constants for TF/gene binding.

Transcriptional regulatory network discovery via multiple method integration: application to e. coli KI2 Sun, Jingjun; Tuncay, Kağan; Haidar, Alaa Abi; Ensman, Lisa; Stanley, Frank; Trelinski, Michael; Ortoleva, Peter (Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2007-03-30) Transcriptional regulatory network (TRN) discovery from one method (e. g. microarray analysis, gene ontology, phylogenic similarity) does not seem feasible due to lack of sufficient information, resulting in the construction of spurious or incomplete TRNs. We develop a methodology, TRND, that integrates a preliminary TRN, microarray data, gene ontology and phylogenic similarity to accurately discover TRNs and apply the method to E. coli KI2. The approach can easily be extended to include other methodologies...
Discovering functional interaction patterns in protein-protein interaction networks Turanalp, Mehmet E.; Can, Tolga (Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2008-06-11) Background: In recent years, a considerable amount of research effort has been directed to the analysis of biological networks with the availability of genome-scale networks of genes and/or proteins of an increasing number of organisms. A protein-protein interaction (PPI) network is a particular biological network which represents physical interactions between pairs of proteins of an organism. Major research on PPI networks has focused on understanding the topological organization of PPI networks, evolution...
Isolation of High-Quality RNA from Pichia pastoris Öztürk, Sibel; Demir, İrem; Çalık, Pınar (Wiley, 2019-12-01) Analysis of RNA structuromes provides new insights into cellular processes, enabling systems biology and biotechnology researchers to calculate promoter and terminator strengths and to directly observe how differing circuit states impact host gene expression and the burdens imposed by the circuits. Such analysis, however, is crucially dependent on the availability of highly pure, intact RNA isolated from fresh or frozen cell cultures. RNA extraction from the yeast Pichia pastoris requires specific pretreatm...
MicroarrayDesigner: an online search tool and repository for near-optimal microarray experimental designs Sacan, Ahmet; Ferhatosmanoglu, Nilgun; Ferhatosmanoglu, Hakan (Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2009-9-22) Background: Dual-channel microarray experiments are commonly employed for inference of differential gene expressions across varying organisms and experimental conditions. The design of dual-channel microarray experiments that can help minimize the errors in the resulting inferences has recently received increasing attention. However, a general and scalable search tool and a corresponding database of optimal designs were still missing. Description: An efficient and scalable search method for finding nea...
JOA: Joint Overlap Analysis of multiple genomic interval sets Otlu, Burcak; Can, Tolga (Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2019-03-08) BackgroundNext-generation sequencing (NGS) technologies have produced large volumes of genomic data. One common operation on heterogeneous genomic data is genomic interval intersection. Most of the existing tools impose restrictions such as not allowing nested intervals or requiring intervals to be sorted when finding overlaps in two or more interval sets.ResultsWe proposed segment tree (ST) and indexed segment tree forest (ISTF) based solutions for intersection of multiple genomic interval sets in parallel...
