Transcriptional regulatory networks specify the regulatory proteins of target genes that control the context-specific expression levels of genes. With our ability to profile the different types of molecular components of cells under different conditions, we are now uniquely positioned to infer regulatory networks in diverse biological contexts such as different cell types, tissues, and time points. In this chapter, we cover two main classes of computational methods to integrate different types of information to infer genome-scale transcriptional regulatory networks. The first class of methods focuses on integrative methods for specifically inferring connections between transcription factors and target genes by combining gene expression data with regulatory edge-specific knowledge. The second class of methods integrates upstream signaling networks with transcriptional regulatory networks by combining gene expression data with protein–protein interaction networks and proteomic datasets. We conclude with a section on practical applications of a network inference algorithm to infer a genome-scale regulatory network.
