CalCEN: A Co-Expression Network for Candida albicans

Elucidating gene function is a major goal in biology, especially among non-model organisms. However, doing so is complicated by the fact that molecular conservation does not always mirror functional conservation, and that complex relationships among genes are responsible for encoding pathways and higher-order biological processes. Co-expression, a promising approach for predicting gene function, relies on the general principle that genes with similar expression patterns across multiple conditions will likely be involved in the same biological process. For Candida albicans, a prevalent human fungal pathogen, we leveraged a large amount of publicly available transcriptomic data to generate a C. albicans Co-Expression Network (CalCEN), recapitulating known protein networks, predicting gene function, and enabling insights into the principles influencing co-expression. Overall, co-expression is a powerful tool for uncovering gene function, and decreases the experimental tests needed to identify functions for currently under-annotated genes.
