Time Course Network Enrichment

We developed time course network enrichment (TiCoNE), a novel human-augmented time series clustering method combined with a temporal network enricher that enables drug target discovery based on temporal networks. Temporal gene clusters are embedded into molecular networks, and TiCoNE identifies molecular pathways (subnetworks) with a differential behavior under two conditions (e.g., diseases). Such temporal disease pathway candidates are evaluated by calculating empirical p-values.

TiCoNE works with most kinds of biological entities (genes, proteins, RNAs, etc.) and most types of molecular measures acquirable for them (transcriptomics,proteomics, etc.). It comes as web server and as Cytoscape plugin.
