TimeXNet is an application that predicts activated pathways during a cellular response using time-course gene expression profiles in the context of a large molecular interaction network.
|
|
TimeXNet implements an algorithm based on a minimum cost flow optimization approach to predict activated pathways in a large molecular network between three sets of genes – initial, intermediate and late response genes based on their time of expression.

TimeXNet is implemented in Java and can be run on the command-line or through a user-interface. It requires two main sources of information:

TimeXNet was used to identify the activated pathways during the innate immune response in mouse dendritic cells stimulated with LPS.
