Abstract
AbstractGene regulatory networks (GRNs) are complex networks that capture multi-level regulatory events between one or more regulatory macromolecules, such as transcription factors (TFs), and their target genes. Advancements in screening technologies such as enhanced yeast-one-hybrid screens have allowed for high throughput determination of GRNs. However, visualization of GRNs in Arabidopsis has been limited to ad hoc networks and are not interactive. Here, we describe the Arabidopsis GEne Network Tool (AGENT) that houses curated GRNs and provides tools to visualize and explore them. AGENT features include expression overlays, subnetwork motif scanning, and network analysis. We show how to use AGENT’s multiple built-in tools to identify key genes that are involved in flowering and seed development along with identifying temporal multi-TF control of a key transporter in nitrate signaling. AGENT can be accessed at https://bar.utoronto.ca/AGENT.
