Gene regulatory network

A gene regulatory network (GRN) is a collection of molecular regulators that interact with each other and with other substances in the cell to regulate gene expression. These networks play a crucial role in controlling various biological processes, such as development, differentiation, and responses to environmental changes. ### Components of Gene Regulatory Networks 1. **Transcription Factors**: Proteins that bind to specific DNA sequences to promote or inhibit the transcription of nearby genes.
