Core Coefficient quantifies transcription-factor functional dominance for therapeutic target selection

Transcription factors (TFs) operate in regulatory networks to control gene expression. The functional importance or leverage of a TF depends on the specific regulatory network in which it operates. Commonly used measurements of TF biology do not quantify the functional importance of TFs in these networks, which makes target selection for therapeutic intervention suboptimal. We developed the Core…
