摘要

Advances in single-cell technology enable large-scale generation of omics data, promising for clarifying gene regulatory networks governing different cell type/states. Nonetheless, prevailing methods fail to account for universal and reusable regulatory modules in GRNs, which are fundamental underpinnings of cell type landscape. We introduce cRegulon to infer regulatory modules by modeling combinatorial regulation of transcription factors based on diverse GRNs from single-cell multi-omics data. Through benchmarking and applications using simulated datasets and real datasets, cRegulon outperforms existing approaches in identifying TF combinatorial modules as regulatory units and annotating cell types. cRegulon offers new insights and methodology into combinatorial regulation.
