Abstract

Complex organisms originate from and are maintained by the information encoded in the genome. A major challenge of systems biology is to develop algorithms that describe the dynamic regulation of genome functions from large omics datasets. Here, we describe TETRAMER, which reconstructs gene-regulatory networks from temporal transcriptome data during cell fate transitions to predict "master" regulators by simulating cascades of temporal transcription-regulatory events.
