Identifying Transcription Factor Combinations to Modulate Circadian Rhythms by Leveraging Virtual Knockouts on Transcription Networks
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The mammalian circadian systems consist of indigenous, self-sustained 24-h rhythm generators. They comprise many genes, molecules, and regulators. To decode their systematic controls, a robust computational approach was employed. It integrates transcription-factor-occupancy and time-series gene-expression data as input. The model equations were constructed and solved to determine the transcriptional regulatory logics in the mouse transcriptome network. This hypothesizes to explore the underlying mechanisms of combinatorial transcriptional regulations for circadian rhythms in mouse. We reconstructed the quantitative transcriptional-regulatory networks for circadian gene regulation at a dynamic scale. Transcriptional-simulations with virtually knocked-out mutants were performed to estimate their influence on networks. The potential transcriptional-regulators-combinations modulating the circadian rhythms were identified. Of them, CLOCK/CRY1 double knockout preserves the highest modulating capacity. Our quantitative framework offers a quick, robust, and physiologically relevant way to characterize the druggable targets to modulate the circadian rhythms at a dynamic scale effectively.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
