Gene Function Prediction from Functional Association Networks Using Kernel Partial Least Squares Regression. by Sonja Lehtinen, Jon Lees, Jürg Bähler, John Shawe-Taylor, Christine Orengo

“…We compare Compass to GeneMANIA, a leading network-based prediction algorithm, using a number of different benchmarks, and find that Compass outperforms GeneMANIA on these benchmarks. We also explicitly explore problems associated with the non-independence of functional association data and test data. …”

A Multistate Toggle Switch Defines Fungal Cell Fates and Is Regulated by Synergistic Genetic Cues. by Matthew Z Anderson, Allison M Porman, Na Wang, Eugenio Mancera, Denis Huang, Christina A Cuomo, Richard J Bennett

“…A model for tristability is proposed in which Wor1 and Efg1 are self-activating but mutually antagonistic transcription factors, thereby forming a symmetrical self-activating toggle switch. We explicitly test this model and show that ectopic expression of WOR1 can induce white-to-hybrid-to-opaque switching, whereas ectopic expression of EFG1 drives switching in the opposite direction, from opaque-to-hybrid-to-white cell states. …”
