Abstract:Transcription factors (TFs) are important drivers of cellular decision-making. When bacteria encounter a change in the environment, transcription factors alter the expression of a defined set of genes in order to adequately respond. It is commonly assumed that genes regulated by the same TF should be involved in the same biological process. Examples of this are methods that rely on coregulation to infer function of not yet annotated genes. We have previously shown that only 21% of TFs regulate functionally hom… Show more
