The goal of this project is to enable you to utilize genomic big data in identifying regulatory mechanisms for differential expression (DE).
DEcode predicts inter-tissue variations and inter-person variations in gene expression levels from TF-promoter interactions, RNABP-mRNA interactions, and miRNA-mRNA interactions.
You can read more about this method in this paper (full text is available at https://rdcu.be/b5r3p) where we conducted a series of evaluation and applications by predicting transcript usage, drivers of aging DE, gene coexpression relationships on a genome-wide scale, and frequent DE in diverse conditions.
You can run DEcode on Code Ocean platform without setting up a computational environment. Our Code Ocean capsule provides reproducible workflows, all processed data, and pre-trained models for tissue- and person-specific transcriptomes and DEprior, at gene- or transcript level.
