Transcription Networks
In order to guarantee the coordinated expression of the whole genomes, cells build on a complex and highly organized network of transcription factors. The ability to integrate different signals or to orchestrate complex processes resides in the properties of this network. New experimental and computational methods have arisen recently, allowing us to study the transcription regulation network from a Systems biology perspective. The application of our current knowledge of transcription networks has already allowing the engineering of artificial networks with specific properties. However we are far for fully understand how this network works or how cells have evolved such complex network.
Topics
The aim of this workshop is to promote communication between the different approaches that have been taken in the analysis of transcription networks, from the more theoretical to the more applied, in order to achieve a global perspective about the Transcription Regulatory Networks.The areas here will be represented in this workshop:
- Theoretical studies of transcription Networks properties and simulation.
- Evolution of transcription.
- Deriving networks from experimental data.
- New experimental methods in transcription and Artificial Regulatory Networks.
- Integrating regulation networks with other biological processes.
