Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Effects on gene expression due to environmental or genetic changes can be easily measured using microarrays. However, indirect effects on expression can be substantial. The indirect effects of a perturbation need to be distinguished from the direct effects if we are to understand the structure and behavior of regulatory networks. RESULTS: The most direct way to perturb a transcriptional network is to...
