A Simple Approach for Representation of Gene Regulatory Networks (GRN)
Journal Title: International Journal of Advanced Computer Science & Applications - Year 2018, Vol 9, Issue 11
Abstract
Gene expressions are controlled by a series of processes known as Gene Regulation, and their abstract mapping is represented by Gene Regulatory Network (GRN) which is a descriptive model of gene interactions. Reverse engineering GRNs can reveal the complexity of gene interactions whose comprehension can lead to several other details. RNA-seq data provides better measurement of gene expressions, however it is difficult to infer GRNs using it because of its discreteness. Multiple other methods have already been proposed to infer GRN using RNA-seq data, but these methodologies are difficult to grasp. In this paper, a simple model is presented to infer GRNs, using RNA-seq based coexpression map provided by GeneFriends database, and a graph-based database tool is used to create regulatory network. The obtained results show that it is convenient to use graph database tools to work with regulatory networks instead of developing a new model from scratch.
