Transcriptional programs. Two schematics of the same regulatory network. Both representations have 4 transcription factors at the top and 7 genes at the bottom. The lower network uses latent transcriptional programs as intermediaries to reduce its complexity. Note that the transcriptional programs can overlap, for example TF₁ is in both programs and that the same gene can be targeted by multiple programs, for example G₃ and G₄.
