    The problem of post-translational modulation of MYC transcriptional activity was previously studied, using the conditional mutual information, in the same dataset used in this paper. See

    Wang K, Banerjee N, Margolin AA, Nemenman I, Califano A, (2006) Genome-wide discovery of modulators of transcriptional interactions in human B lymphocytes, in Lecture Notes in Computer Science, Vol. 3909:348-362, Proceedings of the 10th Annual International Conference on Research in Computational Molecular Biology (RECOMB). http://www.springerlink.com/content/j1l2g05341g070w2/fulltext.pdf

    genome-wide results from that analysis were used to predict oncogenic lesions and drug mechanism of action in:

    Finally, a genome-wide analysis of the post-translational regulators of TF activity in mature human B cells was recently published in
